Hello!

i see RFC 3203 and RFC 3118 listed as supported

i would like to ask if FORCERENEW is supported and if someone can point me to relevant documentation

To enable FORCERENEW in dhcpcd you need to setup authentication.
See `authprotocol` in dhcpcd.conf(5) man page.

If authentication is not configured then dhcpcd will emit the error `unauthenticated Force Renew` upon receipt of a FORCERENEW message, otherwise it will begin the renewal process.
