Hello Jim,

This issue came up for us a few months ago. I couldn't find anything in
the DHCP specification about it. The implication that I got was that
DHCP should be persistent.
Yes, that is the current implementation and will be the default.
However, for headless embedded devices, the IP link is the only way
to access the device, and you have a chicken-and-egg problem when
there happens to be no DHCP server.
Again, this needs to be a conditionally piece of stuff to be enabled.
Regards,
Leon.
