It seems right except for the device name. It should be something like "Built-In Ethernet". sudo networksetup -setdhcp device_name [client_id] Where client_id is optional and specifying Empty will clear the dhcp client ids. So for example: sudo networksetup -setdhcp "Built-In Ethernet" Do not use hardware name, it the network service name, essentially the same as the device names visible in preferences.

Hope this helps.

Best Regards,
Kenneth

Hello,
I'm assuming System Configuration Framework is the best way programmatically. What is the Apple preferred method for restarting DHCP on a client via the command line? There's ifconfig, but I'm thinking moving forward, Apple would suggest scutil or networksetup. I can't figure out scutil, but neworksetup seems it would be something like...
sudo networksetup -setdhcp interface id
thanks for any info,
Jaime Magiera
