Allow configuring IPoE servers without a client IP pool if DHCP relay is used
Closed, ResolvedPublicBUG

Description

Creating an unnecessary client ip pool is mandatory in ipoe server when dhcp-relay is used
Example:

set service ipoe-server authentication mode 'noauth'
set service ipoe-server gateway-address '10.0.0.1/24'
set service ipoe-server interface eth0 external-dhcp dhcp-relay '192.168.0.2'
set service ipoe-server interface eth0 external-dhcp giaddr '10.0.0.1'

vyos@vyos# commit
[ service ipoe-server ]
Local auth and noauth mode requires local client-ip-pool
or client-ipv6-pool or client-subnet to be configured!
[[service ipoe-server]] failed
Commit failed
[edit]

Need to create verification which allows the use of dhcp-relay without creating client ip pool
