    34     <quote>xyz</quote> is a network interface name. Inside this directory

    52     <para>The values of these variables must be changed in every file to match
    53     the proper setup. If the <envar>ONBOOT</envar> variable is set to
    54     <quote>yes</quote> the network script will bring up the Network Interface
    55     Card (NIC) during booting of the system. If set to anything but
    56     <quote>yes</quote> the NIC will be ignored by the network script and not
    57     be brought up.</para>
    58 
    59     <para>The <envar>SERVICE</envar> variable defines the method used for
    60     obtaining the IP address. The CLFS-Bootscripts package has a modular IP
    61     assignment format, and creating additional files in the <filename
    62     class="directory">/etc/sysconfig/network-devices/services</filename>
    63     directory allows other IP assignment methods. This is commonly used for
    64     Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP), which is addressed in the
    65     BLFS book.</para>
    6647
    6748    <para>The <envar>GATEWAY</envar> variable should contain the default
    … …  
    6950    variable entirely.</para>
    7051
    71     <para>The <envar>PREFIX</envar> variable needs to contain the number of
    72     bits used in the subnet. Each octet in an IP address is 8 bits. If the
    73     subnet's netmask is 255.255.255.0, then it is using the first three octets
    74     (24 bits) to specify the network number. If the netmask is 255.255.255.240,
    75     it would be using the first 28 bits.  Prefixes longer than 24 bits are
    76     commonly used by DSL and cable-based Internet Service Providers (ISPs).
    77     In this example (PREFIX=24), the netmask is 255.255.255.0. Adjust the
    78     <envar>PREFIX</envar> variable according to your specific subnet.</para>

     78    <para>The <envar>DHCP</envar> variable if set to yes will allow you to
     79    use dhcp. If set to no, you will need to configure the rest of the options.</para>
