DHCPv4

Overview

The Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) is a network management protocol used on IPv4 networks. A DHCPv4 server dynamically assigns an IPv4 address and other network configuration parameters to each device on a network so they can communicate with other IP networks. See this DHCP Wikipedia article for a detailed overview of how DHCP works.

Note that Zephyr only supports DHCP client functionality.

Sample usage

See DHCPv4 client sample application for details.
