Fedora Update Notification
FEDORA-2005-546
2005-07-12
---------------------------------------------------------------------

Product : Fedora Core 3
Name : dhcp
Version : 3.0.1
Release : 44_FC3
Summary : A DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol) server and relay agent.
Description :
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. The dhcp package includes the DHCP server and a DHCP relay agent.

You should install dhcp if you want to set up a DHCP server on your network. You will also need to install the pump package, which provides the DHCP client daemon, on client machines.
