# HOW TO EDIT THIS FILE:
|
||
|
# The "handy ruler" below makes it easier to edit a package description. Line
|
||
|
# up the first '|' above the ':' following the base package name, and the '|'
|
||
|
# on the right side marks the last column you can put a character in. You must
|
||
|
# make exactly 11 lines for the formatting to be correct. It's also
|
||
|
# customary to leave one space after the ':'.

dhcp:
|
||
|
dhcp: This package provides the ISC's DHCP utilities, including both a
|
||
|
dhcp: server and client. The DHCP protocol allows a host to contact a
|
||
|
dhcp: central server which maintains a list of IP addresses which may be
|
||
|
dhcp: assigned on one or more subnets. A DHCP client may request an
|
||
|
dhcp: address from this pool, and then use it temporarily for communication
|
||
|
dhcp: on the network. The DHCP protocol also provides a mechanism whereby
|
||
|
dhcp: a client can learn important details about the network to which it is
|
||
|
dhcp: attached, such as the location of a default router or name server.
