The DHCP Relay functionality of the AP supports Option 82 and sends the system name of the AP (as a NAS identifier)
as a sub-option of Option 82.

The AP makes a DHCP Request for lease renewal five minutes ahead of the expiration of the Rebinding time as
specified in the DHCP Offer from the DHCP server obtained during the last renewal.
