you might just try something like...
tcpdump -i eth0 -w udpdump.txt udp port 67 or udp port 68
and let that run for a few minutes, long enough to capture a few of
these packets, then ctl-C it, and take that dumpfile and load it into
wireshark (can do that on any system wireshark runs on) and see what it
decodes the dhcp packets to actually be.
for instance, this is a DHCP 'renew' request (from the LAN side of my
gateway)...
# tcpdump -i eth1 -vvv -n udp port 67 or udp port 68
tcpdump: listening on eth1

2 packets received by filter
0 packets dropped by kernel
wireshark will do a much better job explaining the packets than tcpdump
does.
