Hi:

Are you talking about this example from ifconfig.if??

The following illustrates dynamic configuration setup with dhclient( Cool

and rtsol( Cool

:

up
# autoconfigure IPv4 address
!dhclient $int
# autoconfigure IPv6 address. Be sure to set $ip6mode to
autohost.
!rtsol $int

Thanks

two ways (from memory, not tested):

In e.g. /etc/ifconfig.fxp0

!/sbin/dhclient fxp0

Or in rc.conf

dhclient=YES
dhclient_flags="fxp0"

(by default, dhclient will autoconfig all broadcast interfaces, which
sounds like not what you want).

Hi:

I have this stupid question but I look into the documentation, google, etc
and I can't get the answer, how the hell can I make a NIC to have a dynamic
ip address (ifconfig file), I found that in OpenBSD you have to put "dhcp
none none" to the ifconfig.if file but how you do that on NetBSD??.

My idea is to make a router using NetBSD and PF but my ISP provide me with a
dynamic ip address

Thanks, and sorry for the trivial question.
