Subject: [pve-devel] [PATCH container v2 09/11] manage DHCP for containers with custom entrypoint
Date: Wed, 11 Jun 2025 16:49:01 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20250611144903.200940-10-f.schauer@proxmox.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20250611144903.200940-1-f.schauer@proxmox.com>

Containers that do not use the default `/sbin/init` entrypoint may lack
in‑container network management. A previous commit already handles
static IP addresses. Now this commit also handles DHCP. This is done
using a `dhclient` process for each network interface.
