Name:	dhclient	Vendor:	Scientific Linux
Version:	3.0.1	License:	distributable
Release:	12_EL	URL:	http://isc.org/products/DHCP/

Summary

DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol) is a protocol which allows individual devices on an IP network to get their own network configuration information (IP address, subnetmask, broadcast address, etc.) from a DHCP server. The overall purpose of DHCP is to make it easier to administer a large network. To use DHCP on your network, install a DHCP service (or relay agent), and on clients run a DHCP client daemon. The dhclient package provides the ISC DHCP client daemon.
