/* begin * dhcp 4.4.2 (DHCP server and client utilities) This package provides the ISC's DHCP utilities, including both a server and client. The DHCP protocol allows a host to contact a central server which maintains a list of IP addresses which may be assigned on one or more subnets. A DHCP client may request an address from this pool, and then use it temporarily for communication on the network. * end */
