When the switch receives DHCP packets from clients that already include
DHCP Option 82 information, the switch can be configured to set the action
policy for these packets. The switch can either drop the DHCP packets,
keep the existing information, or replace it with the switch’s relay
information.

This command verifies the client’s hardware address stored in the DHCP
packet against the source MAC address in the Ethernet header. Use the no
