dhclient — Automatically configure a network interface using DHCP.
dhclient [-k] {interface}
ABLE is capable of using the Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) to provide IP, DNS and boot-server configuration information. ABLE can use DHCP on any (or all) of its interfaces on multi-ethernet-device boards.
