I guess you could use a dummy relay that added a fake RFC3527 option but yuck...
What do you mean by this, exactly? Relay to a relay? Didn’t think that was
possible because a relay only accepts broadcasts… or am I lacking clue?
You can chain relays e.g. client to router, router to relay in PoP, PoP
to DHCP server. It's pretty rare AIUI and not especially useful in many
cases, but it does work.
e.g. from the ISC dhcrelay man page:
"""
The DHCP Relay Agent listens for DHCPv4 or DHCPv6 queries
from clients or other relay agents
""" ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
One problem with all of this of course, is that even if you get the
relay stuff working, it'll only help you in the INIT, SELECTING and
REQUESTING / REBINDING states. RENEWING (unicast DHCPREQUEST at T1)
usually don't get touched by the relay in a router-as-relay setup.
(Various option82 setups need or force the relay to intervene even on
unicast renews, but AFAIK IOS doesn't do this for L3 interface helpers)
