How to Disable a DHCP Client

  1. Assume an appropriate role.

    Assume a role that can grant the DHCP Management profile to users. If the DHCP Management profile has not been assigned to a user, assume the root role.

    Roles contain authorizations and privileged commands. For more information about roles, see Creating a Role in Securing Users and Processes in Oracle Solaris 11.4. For more information about the DHCP Management profile, see How to Grant User Access to DHCP Commands.

  2. Reconfigure the system.

    Choose one of the following configuration methods:

    • To interactively reconfigure the system.
      1. Issue the following command.
        # sysconfig configure
      2. When the tool starts, in the Network screen, select No Network or select the interface and then choose static to configure a static IP address.
    • To non-interactively reconfigure the system using a system configuration profile, issue the following command.
      # sysconfig configure -c sc_profile

      See the sysconfig(8) man page for more information about using a sc_profile configuration file.
