Research direction

Check the package Makefile history to identify the maintainer and locate the dhcrelay package entry point. Reproduce the configuration with a ppp0 upstream interface on the reported OpenWrt environment, then determine whether the unsupported device type is handled; done means dhcrelay starts and relays traffic through ppp0.
