DHCP Proxy

The DHCP proxy allows the CyberGuard SG appliance to forward DHCP requests from
the LAN to an external server for resolution. This allows both static and dynamic
addresses to be given out on the LAN just as running a DHCP server would.

To enable this feature, specify the server which is to receive the forwarded requests in
Relay Host. This server must also be configured to know and accept requests from the
CyberGuard SG appliance's LAN. Then check Enable DHCP Relay and click Apply.
