Description: DHCP server for automatic IP address assignment
This is the DHCP server from version 3 of the Internet Software
Consortium DHCP package. For more information visit the ISC web
site at http://www.isc.org.
.
Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) is a protocol like BOOTP
(actually dhcpd includes much of the functionality of BOOTPD!). It assigns
IP addresses to clients based on lease times. DHCP is used extensively
by Microsoft and more recently also by Apple. It is probably essential
in any multi-platform environment.
.
Multiple Ethernet Interfaces are supported by this DHCP package.
.
Note: This package _requires_ a 2.2.x or later Linux kernel. 2.0.x kernels
are _not_ supported.
Description: ISC DHCP server (transitional package)
This is the server from the Internet Software Consortium's implementation of
DHCP. For more information, visit http://www.isc.org.
.
Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) is a protocol like BOOTP
(actually dhcpd includes much of the functionality of bootpd). It
gives client machines "leases" for IP addresses and can
automatically set their network configuration.
.
This server can handle multiple ethernet interfaces.
.
This is a dummy package to aid in transitioning from the v3 DHCP packages
to the new-style DHCP packages.
.
This dummy package may be safely removed after upgrading to squeeze
