They probably are configured to be "bootp-relay-agents", as per the definition of RFC 1542 (respectively "bootp forwarding agents", as they are called in RFC951). This is the way router hardware usually behaves, because larger corporate networks usually rely on DHCP (which is a superset of the original bootp protocol).

I hope this helps.

dhcpd [start | stop | monitor | meta-data | validate-all] DESCRIPTION
Manage an ISC DHCP server service in a chroot environment. SUPPORTED PARAMETERS
config The absolute path to the DHCP server configuration file. (unique, required, string, no default) chrooted Configure the dhcpd service to run in a chrooted or non-chrooted mode. (unique, optional, boolean, default true) chrooted_path The absolute path of the chrooted DHCP environment. (unique, optional, string, default "/var/lib/dhcp") binary The binary for the DHCP server process. An absolute path definition is not required, but can be used to override environment path. (optional, string, default "dhcpd") user The system user the DHCP server process will run as when it is chrooted. (optional, string, default "dhcpd") group The system group the DHCP server process will run as when it is chrooted. (optional, string, default "nogroup") interface The network interface(s) the DHCP server process will bind to. A blank value will bind the process to all interfaces.

(optional, string, default "/db/dhcpd.leases") pid The path and filename of the PID file. It is relative to chrooted_path. (optional, string, default "/var/run/dhcpd.pid") SUPPORTED ACTIONS

Suggested minimum timeout: 20. monitor Performs a detailed status check. Suggested minimum timeout: 20. Suggested interval: 10. meta-data Retrieves resource agent metadata (internal use only). Suggested minimum timeout: 5. validate-all Performs a validation of the resource configuration. Suggested minimum timeout: 20. EXAMPLE
