DHCP relay

The switch can function as a Layer 3 device in which it relays messages between DHCP
clients and DHCP servers that are located in a different IP subnet. We refer to the switch
as a Layer 3 DHCP relay, or simply a DHCP relay, as opposed to a L2 DHCP relay, which
is a different function (see DHCP Layer 2 relay on page 142).
