auto-configure any interface with no configuration, it will use DHCP for
IPv4 and Router Advertisements to decide how to initialize IPv6.
:Example: DIB_DHCP_NETWORK_MANAGER_AUTO=true
DIB_DHCP_CLIENT
:Required: no
:Default: internal
:Description: When NetworkManager is in use, this setting conveys which DHCP
client is in use for acquiring a DHCP address for the node. In some specific
cases, where known that dhclient is the tested or most compatible default,
specifically for Centos 7, 8, and 8-Stream, as well as derived distributions.
Otherwise, the "internal" dhcp client is the default.
