This object controls DHCP operation. When set to always(1),
the Access Point will not assume an infinite lease it was
given but continue trying to obtain an IP address using DHCP.
The Access Point can only see the difference between an infinite
lease and a finite lease because there is no clock running when
the device is shut down. When set to smart(2), the Access Point
will use DHCP when it does not have an infinite lease. When it
does have an infinite lease, it quickly tries to contact a DHCP
server (because it may now be in a new IP subnet) using one
DHCPREQUEST and one DHCPDISCOVER. If no replies are received, it
will automatically assume its given (infinite) address within
a few seconds after reboot.
When set to never(3), the Access Point will not use DHCP if it
has an infinite address. It will immediately assume that address
after a reboot. Note that the Access Point requires a valid
(not NULL) IP address for this object to be set to never(3).
