Following up on:

https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2320141#c2
~~~
This is expected to happen with DHCP protocol:

https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/rfc2131#section-7
~~~

and https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2320865#c1
~~~
Mitigation at network or VPN level is appropriate, this is not being treated as a bug in the DHCP client.
~~~

Closing this also as NOTABUG.
