domains.

Configure the DHCP Relay screen as shown. Make sure you select a DHCP option 82 profile 
(default1 in this example) to set the Switch to send additional information (such as the VLAN ID) 
together with the DHCP requests to the DHCP server. This allows the DHCP server to assign the 
appropriate IP address according to the VLAN ID.
