security by filtering untrusted DHCP messages. An untrusted interface is an interface that is configured to receive messages from outside the
network or firewall. A trusted interface is an interface that is configured to receive only messages from within the network. DHCP snooping
acts like a firewall between untrusted hosts and DHCP servers. It also provides a way to differentiate between untrusted interfaces connected
to the end user and trusted interfaces connected to the DHCP server or another switch.
