In many Linux distributions, there is some link between the DHCP client and the Chrony configuration. E.g. on my Debian system, the chrony configuration file has:
sourcedir /run/chrony-dhcp and the DHCP client puts a server line in a file in that directory when the client obtains a DHCP server address. Chrony then picks that up automatically.
