5 | <para><acronym>DHCP</acronym> stands for Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol.
|
---|
6 | It is a protocol which is used by many sites to automatically provide
|
---|
7 | information such as <acronym>IP</acronym> addresses, subnet masks and routing
|
---|
8 | information to computers. If your network uses <acronym>DHCP</acronym>, you
|
---|
9 | will need a <acronym>DHCP</acronym> client in order to connect to it.
|
---|
10 | <acronym>DHCP</acronym> is also used by some cable modems.</para>
|
---|
11 |
|
---|
12 | <para>We currently provide installation instructions for two
|
---|
13 | <acronym>DHCP</acronym> clients, <command>dhclient</command> (from the
|
---|
14 | <application>dhcp</application> package) and <command>dhcpcd</command>. We
|
---|
15 | begin with a page which shows how to alter the <acronym>LFS</acronym>
|
---|
16 | bootscripts for generic <acronym>DHCP</acronym> support. We then present the
|
---|
17 | two sets of installation instructions which also discuss
|
---|
18 | how to create an appropriate configuration file to work with the
|
---|
19 | <acronym>DHCP</acronym> client of your choice.</para>
