<title><acronym>DHCP</acronym> Clients</title>

|
|
|
<para><acronym>DHCP</acronym> stands for Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol.
|
|
It is a protocol used by many sites to automatically provide information such
|
|
as <acronym>IP</acronym> addresses, subnet masks and routing information to
|
|
computers. If your network uses <acronym>DHCP</acronym>, you will need a
|
|
<acronym>DHCP</acronym> client in order to connect to it.
|
|
<acronym>DHCP</acronym> is also used by some cable modems.</para>
|
|
|
|
<para><acronym>BLFS</acronym> currently provides installation instructions for
|
|
two <acronym>DHCP</acronym> clients, <command>dhclient</command> (from the
|
|
<application>dhcp</application> package) and <command>dhcpcd</command>.
|
|
<acronym>BLFS</acronym> presents both sets of installation instructions and
|
|
discusses how to create an appropriate service script to work with the
|
|
<command>network</command> bootscript and the <acronym>DHCP</acronym>
|
|
client of your choice.</para>
