Project Summary

This program forwards DHCP messages between subnets with different sublayer broadcast domains. It is similarly to the DHCP relay agent dhcrelay of ISC's DHCP, but has the following additional features:

* Runs as non-root in a chroot-jail
* Uses "normal" AF_INET sockets; this allows to use packetfilters to filter incoming messages
* The DHCP agent IDs can be defined freely
* Has a small memory footprint when using dietlibc
