How to Unconfigure DHCP Servers or BOOTP Relay Agents (dhcpconfig)

  1. Become superuser on the server system.

  2. Type the following:


    # /usr/sbin/dhcpconfig
    

    The text-based DHCP Configuration menu is displayed.

  3. Type 3 and press Return to select Unconfigure DHCP or Relay Service.

  4. Answer the prompts as follows:


    Unconfigure will stop the DHCP service and remove /etc/default/dhcp.
    Are you SURE you want to disable the DHCP service? ([Y]/N):

    Type Y to unconfigure the server.


    Are you SURE you want to remove the DHCP tables? (Y/[N]):

    Type Y only if you are certain that the DHCP data is not shared with other DHCP servers. If you type N, the server is disabled while the data remains intact.
