- <para>This section configures the DHCP Unique Identifier (DUID) value used by DHCP protocol. DHCPv4
- client protocol sends IAID and DUID to the DHCP server when acquiring a dynamic IPv4 address if
- <option>ClientIdentifier=duid</option>. IAID and DUID allows a DHCP server to uniquely identify the
- machine and the interface requesting a DHCP IP address. To configure IAID and ClientIdentifier, see
