dhcp-agent is a UNIX Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) suite that is extendable via Scheme using Guile. The suite currently ships with a beta quality DHCP client and sniffer.
Information regarding Project Releases and Project Resources. Note that the information here is a quote from Freecode.com page, and the downloads themselves may not be hosted on OSDN.
An "-s" option has been added to the client to allow lease introspection. A contrib directory has been added with a sample configuration file for Rogers Cable Broadband service in the Toronto Area. It may work for other @home services. "default-interface-mtu" works as advertised now. Updated documentation now includes a brief overview of DHCP. There are other minor cosmetic fixes.
Absence of the "require" directive now causes the client to accept the
first DHCP offer. The default configuration file has been updated to
be more likely to work out of the box. "do-measure-router-latency"
now works as advertised. Other minor cosmetic fixes have been made.
This release is much more compliant to RFC2131
and RFC2132. The new and improved client
configuration support allows fine grained
control over the client's DHCP, ARP, and ICMP
operations, overriding, appending, or prepending
to DHCP options, and the setting of default
hostnames, subnet masks, and interface MTU. An
embedded Scheme interpreter (Guile) in the
client now allows the user to extend the client
to handle more DHCP options than just basic
networking options. Linux, NetBSD, FreeBSD,
OpenBSD, and Solaris are supporter, and numerous
bugfixes were made.
