[systemd-devel] [PATCH v2] networkd: send hostname to dhcp server

Eugene Yakubovich eugene.yakubovich at coreos.com
Tue Jul 1 11:58:49 PDT 2014


Send hostname (option 12) in DISCOVER and REQUEST messages so the
DHCP server could use it to register with dynamic DNS and such.

To opt-out of this behaviour set SendHostname to false in [DHCPv4]
section of .network file
