That is because the actual name of the software package under which one will find it is udhcp, as documented on ISBN 9780596005023 p. 66 and ISBN 9780596555054 p. 304. Fairly obviously from those sources, it is a sub-topic of BusyBox and not substantial enough for its own standalone article. Uncle G (talk) 08:42, 25 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Keep. Very helpful when I needed info. I don't see an advantage of having hundreds of descriptions in a busybox article. On a counter point: When googling the subject, google generative ai generates a very nice overview now, which makes this less important.
