Is there a file that contains, or command that will display, the DUID a

what the DUID is so I can set a static reservation for the client but
I've not been able to figure out the DUID for a given system until after
it gets a dynamic address.
I don't use dhcp or ipv6 but wouldn't the DUID be in the lease file,
under "/var/lib/dhcp/" or "/var/lib/dhclient/"?
Yes it would be if the system has already attempted to get an address
via DHCP. But I'd like to determine the DUID before that happens so I
can have the DHCP server already configured to respond with the proper
address.
