DHCP Relay Configuration
Some ISPs perform DHCP server function to their customers’ home/small office network.
In this case, you can configure the modem/router to act as a DHCP relay agent. When a
host on your network requests for Internet access, the modem/router contacts your ISP to
obtain the IP configuration, and then forward that information to the host.
