86 <title>[DHCP] Section Options
</title>
88 <para>This section configures the DHCP Unique Identifier (DUID) value used by DHCP
89 protocol. DHCPv6 client protocol sends the DHCP Unique Identifier and the interface
90 Identity Association Identifier (IAID) to a DHCP server when acquiring a dynamic IPv6
91 address. DHCPv4 client protocol sends IAID and DUID to the DHCP server when acquiring
92 a dynamic IPv4 address if
<option>ClientIdentifier=duid
</option>. IAID and DUID allows
93 a DHCP server to uniquely identify the machine and the interface requesting a DHCP IP.
94 To configure IAID and ClientIdentifier, see
95 <citerefentry><refentrytitle>systemd.network
</refentrytitle><manvolnum>5</manvolnum></citerefentry>.
