DHCP Client Installation

The Solaris DHCP client is installed and enabled on a system during installation of the Solaris operating environment when you specify that you want to use DHCP to configure network interfaces. You do not need to do anything else on the Solaris client to use DHCP.

If you want a system that is already running the Solaris operating environment to use DHCP to obtain network configuration information, see Configuring and Unconfiguring a Solaris DHCP Client.
