==Client configuration parameters== A DHCP server can provide optional configuration parameters to the client. RFC 2132 describes the available DHCP options defined by [[Internet Assigned Numbers Authority]] (IANA) - DHCP and BOOTP PARAMETERS.<ref name=":0">{{cite web|url=https://www.iana.org/assignments/bootp-dhcp-parameters/bootp-dhcp-parameters.xhtml|title=Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) and Bootstrap Protocol (BOOTP) Parameters|publisher=iana.org|access-date=2018-10-16}}</ref> A DHCP client can select, manipulate and overwrite parameters provided by a DHCP server. In Unix-like systems this client-level refinement typically takes place according to the values in the configuration file ''/etc/dhclient.conf''.
