6protocol which is used by many sites to automatically provide
7information such as IP addresses, subnet masks and routing information
8to computers. If your network uses DHCP, you will need a DHCP client
9in order to connect to it. DHCP is also used by some cable
10modems.</para>

13clients, those from the dhcp and dhcpcd packages. After we discuss
