COMMAND USAGE
â—† This command identifies a DHCP client to bind to an address specified in
the host command. If both a client identifier and hardware address are
configured for a host address, the client identifier takes precedence
over the hardware address in the search procedure.
â—† BOOTP clients cannot transmit a client identifier. To bind an address to
a BOOTP client, you must associate a hardware address with the host
entry.
