NAME

adhcp_client - A DHCPv4 client written in Ada

adhcp_client -i iface [-1]

adhcp_client is a DHCPv4 client written in the Ada programming language. It is part of the ADHCP project.

The ADHCP client adhcp_client runs the DHCPv4 protocol on the given iface to acquire address and network configuration from a DHCPv4 server.

After acquiring a lease, adhcp_client propagates the lease data to NetworkManager(8) using adhcp_notify(8).

-i iface: The interface to configure.
-1: Run in one-shot mode. In this mode adhcp_client will exit after acquiring a lease. If the client does not receive a lease within one minute it will exit with a failure (timeout).
