We are aware that the NetworkPkg contains DNS driver. Is this driver able to relay a request that has come from another DNS client?

I checked the related RFCs of DNS and can't find the related definitions of that, but I believe it's the router's capability to provide the relay service just like the DHCP relay. Currently, it have been supported by some routers (D-Link or Cisco) but may need your another simple configuration (I'm not sure because I haven't tried that). Besides, in the case you do need the support within the client, you can code the app/driver to handle the request first, then call the DNS driver APIs provided in NetworkPkg. I think it's the way to relay the request.
