<title>DHCP Clients</title>
|
|
|
|
<para>DHCP stands for Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol. It is a
|
|
protocol which is used by many sites to automatically provide
|
|
information such as IP addresses, subnet masks and routing information
|
|
to computers. If your network uses DHCP, you will need a DHCP client
|
|
in order to connect to it. DHCP is also used by some cable
|
|
modems.</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>We currently provide installation instructions for two DHCP
|
|
clients, those from the dhcp and dhcpcd packages. After we discuss
|
|
installing the packages, we will also discuss how to
|
|
configure your bootscripts to allow you to use dhcp as a client.</para>
