Description

The dhcp module attempts to request a DHCP lease (using a DHCP-INFORM packet) via the dhcping executable for the host being checked. If it cannot, a problem is generated. The module sends a unicast packet to the host to be checked to ensure that other hosts do not respond instead.

This module cannot be run in parallel (and will not do so by default).

Examples

  1. To test dhcp: 
         module dhcp {}
