The Internet Software Consortium DHCP Relay Agent, dhcre-
lay, provides a means for relaying DHCP and BOOTP requests
from a subnet to which no DHCP server is directly to one
or more DHCP servers on other subnets.
OOPPEERRAATTIIOONN
The DHCP Relay Agent listens for DHCP requests on all
interfaces attached to a host, or only on those interfaces
specified on the command line with the _-_i flag. When a
query is received, it forwards it to the list of DHCP
servers specified on the command line. When a reply is
received, it is broadcast or unicast on the network from
whence the original request came.
It is possible to specify a set of interfaces on which
dhcrelay will listen, so that if dhcrelay is connected
through one interface to a network on which there is no
DHCP server, but is connected on another interface to a
network on which there is a DHCP server, it will not relay
DHCP and BOOTP requests from the network on which the
server exists to that server. This is an imperfect solu-
tion.
CCOOMMMMAANNDD LLIINNEE
The names of the network interfaces that dhcrelay should
attempt to configure may be specified on the command line
using the _-_i option. If no interface names are specified
on the command line dhcrelay will identify all network
interfaces, elimininating non-broadcast interfaces if pos-
sible, and attempt to configure each interface.
If dhcrelay should listen and transmit on a port other
than the standard (port 67), the --pp flag may used. It
should be followed by the udp port number that dhcrelay
should use. This is mostly useful for debugging purposes.
Dhclient will normally run in the foreground until it has
configured an interface, and then will revert to running
in the background. To run force dhcrelay to always run as
a foreground process, the --dd flag should be specified.
This is useful when running dhcrelay under a debugger, or
when running it out of inittab on System V systems.
The name of at least one DHCP server to which DHCP and
BOOTP requests should be relayed must be specified on the
command line.
