|
Autodetect network interfaces during boot and configure them for DHCP
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The rationale for this is that we are likely to require multiple
|
|
|
|
network interfaces for use cases such as baremetal and there is no way
|
|
|
|
to know ahead of time which one is which, so we will simply run a

|
|
|
DHCP client on all interfaces with real MAC addresses (except lo) that
|
|
|
|
are visible on the first boot.

On non-Gentoo based distributions the script
|
|
|
|
/usr/local/sbin/dhcp-all-interfaces.sh will be called early in each
|
|
|
|
boot and will scan available network interfaces and ensure they are
|
|
|
|
configured properly before networking services are started.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
On Gentoo based distributions we will install the dhcpcd package and
|
|
|
|
ensure the service starts at boot. This service automatically sets
|
|
|
|
up all interfaces found via dhcp and/or dhcpv6 (or SLAAC).
