|
|
|
<para>The <application>dhcp</application> package comes with both a client
|
|
(called <command>dhclient</command>) and a server program for using
|
|
<acronym>DHCP</acronym>. If you want to install this package,
|
|
the instructions can be found at <xref linkend="dhcp"/>.
|
|
Note that if you only want to use the client, you
|
|
do <emphasis>not</emphasis> need to run the server and so do not need
|
|
the startup script and links provided for the server daemon.
|
|
You only need to run the <acronym>DHCP</acronym> server if you're providing
|
|
this service to a network, and it's likely that you'll know if that's the
|
|
case; if it isn't, don't run the server! Once you have installed the
|
|
package, return here for information on how to configure the client
|
|
(<command>dhclient</command>).</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>To configure <command>dhclient</command>, you need to create two files,
|
|
<filename>/etc/sysconfig/network-devices/ifconfig.eth0</filename> and
|
|
<filename>/etc/dhclient.conf</filename>.</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>First, create the <filename>ifconfig.eth0</filename>
|
|
file with the following commands (note that this will overwrite any
|
|
existing file):</para>
|
|
|
|
<screen><userinput><command>cd /etc/sysconfig/network-devices &&
|
|
cat > /etc/sysconfig/network-devices/ifconfig.eth0 << "EOF"</command>
|
|
ONBOOT=yes
|
|
DHCP_PROG=/sbin/dhclient
|
|
DHCP_START=<appropriate start parameters>
|
|
DHCP_STOP=-r
|
|
<command>EOF</command></userinput></screen>
|
|
|
|
<para>For more information on the appropriate
|
|
<envar>DHCP_START</envar> and <envar>DHCP_STOP</envar>
|
|
values, examine the man page for <command>dhclient</command>.</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>Next, you should then create
|
|
the <filename>/etc/dhclient.conf</filename> using the following command:</para>
|
|
|
|
<screen><userinput><command>cat > /etc/dhclient.conf << "EOF"</command>
|
|
# dhclient.conf
|
|
|
|
interface "eth0"{

request subnet-mask, broadcast-address, time-offset, routers,
|
|
domain-name, domain-name-servers, host-name;
|
|
require subnet-mask, domain-name-servers;
|
|
}
|
|
# end dhclient.conf
|

<command>EOF</command></userinput></screen>
