PROCESSOR-SDK-AM335X: dhclient command is replaced with dhcpcd

Part Number: PROCESSOR-SDK-AM335X

Tool/software:

Hi All,

We have observed few observations in TISDK9.1

1. dhclient is replaced by dhcpcd can you please let me know why the changes ?
2. dhclient is creating pid,lease and conf files.. command used is
    dhclient -4 –v -1 –cf /etc/dhcpcd/dhclient.conf –lf /var/lib/dhcpcd/dhcpcd.leases –pf /var/run/dhcpcd.eth0.pid
3. May i know how to replace "dhclient" with "dhcpcd" commands?
4. Although, if we face any challenges to continue.. with dhcpcd. can we replace with "dhclient" and proceed with App development?

  • Hi Manu,

    I am not able to understand what you need exactly. Obviously on system level the SDK file system we deliver is only one example how you can use a Linux system. There are many options especially when it comes to networking. We are not able to support this at system level in full detail. I recommend Linux forums or some external Linux experts for such support. I hereby assume that networking on AM335 is working in general in your case.

    Regards, Frank
