If DHCP makes the system boot slowly, then it's not FreeBSD's fault. DHCP addresses are acquired very quickly if the DHCP server is working properly and not overloaded. Even with a slow DHCP server, I've seldom seen it take longer than a few seconds.

If I set one interface with static IP address at install time, such as: em0 IP = 10.20.16.59 I hope these three interfaces are not on the same physical network. then I enable one interface with DHCP, such as, running command: dhlient fxp0 In /etc/rc.conf ifconfig_em0="10.20.16.59/24" (or whatever your netmask is) ifconfig_fxp0="DHCP" Then I reboot system. After system boot up, fxp0 assign an IP address by DHCP server. But the static ip address on em0 is gone. How can I correct this problem? It shouldn't be gone, but it may be unused if both interfaces are on the same network. (Use "ifconfig" to check the status of your interfaces.)

Question about DHCP client with multi-interface.
All, My system have three network cards, interface are fxp0, fxp1, em0. If I set one interface with static IP address at install time, such as: em0 IP = 10.20.16.59 then I enable one interface with DHCP, such as, running command: dhlient fxp0 Then I reboot system. After system boot up, fxp0 assign an IP address by DHCP server. But the static ip address on em0 is gone. How can I correct this problem? Thanks, Yaning __ Do You Yahoo!? Tired of spam? Yahoo!
