+/// @brief This class implements the communication between the DHCPv4
+/// and DHCPv6 servers to allow for transmission of the DHCPv4 query
+/// and DHCPv4 response messages.
+///
+/// When the DHCPv6 server receives the DHCPv4 query message it needs
+/// to forward it to the DHCPv4 server for processing. The DHCPv4
+/// server processes the message and answers with the DHCPv4 response
+/// message to the DHCPv6 server. The server forwards it back to the
+/// client. This class implements the communication between the DHCPv4
+/// and DHCPv6 servers to allow for transmission of the DHCPv4 query
+/// and DHCPv6 response messages.
+///
+/// This class creates a socket (when @c open is called) and binds it
+/// to a port, depending on the configuration. The port number is
+/// explicitly specified in the server configuration. This explicit
+/// port value is used directly on the DHCPv6 server side. The DHCPv4
+/// server uses the port specified + 1.
+///
+/// The DHCPv4 and DHCPv6 servers use distinct instances of classes derived
+/// from this base class. Each of these instances is used to send and
+/// receive messages sent by the other server.
+///
+/// In order to make address allocation decisions, the DHCPv4 server
+/// requires information about the interface and the source address of
+/// the original DHCPv4 query message sent by the client. This
+/// information is known by the DHCPv6 server and needs to be conveyed
+/// to the DHCPv4 server. The IPC conveys it in the
+/// @c ISC_V6_4O6_INTERFACE, @c ISC_V6_4O6_SRC_ADDRESS and @c
+/// ISC_V6_4O6_SRC_PORT options within the Vendor Specific Information
+/// option, with ISC enterprise id. These options are added by the IPC
+/// sender and removed by the IPC receiver.
