5.1.6.1.14 DHCPCLIENT SET BACKOFF
Syntax DHCPCLIENT SET BACKOFF <backofftime>
Description This command sets the global maximum time (in seconds) that a DHCP client interface
will ‘back off’ between issuing individual DHCP requests. This prevents many clients try-
ing to configure themselves at the same time, and sending too many requests at once.
Options The following table gives the range of values for each option that can be specified with
this command and a default value (if applicable).
Example --> dhcpclient set backoff 200
See also DHCPCLIENT SHOW
Option Description Default Value
backofftime The maximum number of seconds that the DHCP
client can pause for between unsuccessful DHCP
negotiations.
