DHCPv4 relay counters

The purpose of this feature is to enhance the DHCP relay component in OS10 to include interface DHCP relay packet counters. These counters are used to provide telemetry and debugging support.

Overview

The DHCPv4 relay agent maintains DHCPv4 relay counters per interface. These relay counters are configured for all the DHCP packets that are processed by the DHCP client-connected interfaces. You must configure DHCPv4 relay or helper address for the client-connected interfaces.

The DHCP relay counters provide visibility into the OS10 nodes DHCPv4 relay behavior in DHCPv4 relay use cases. These DHCP relay counters also enable telemetry support for monitoring and debugging the DHCPv4 relay functionality.

DHCPv4 relay maintains the counters per interface only in client-connected interfaces where helper address is configured. When the first helper address is configured on the interface, the DHCPv4 relay counters are initialized to 0 and the last clear timestamp is updated.
