Description: Ad-Hoc Configuration Protocol
AHCP is an autoconfiguration protocol for IPv6 and dual-stack
IPv6/IPv4 networks designed to be used in place of router discovery
and DHCP on networks where it is difficult or impossible to configure
a server within every link-layer broadcast domain, for example mobile
ad-hoc networks. AHCP will automatically configure the IPv6 prefix,
an IPv4 address for every host, the routing protocol, the DNS server
and the NTP server. It is currently able to configure hosts for
static routing, for use of the OLSR protocol, or for use of the Babel
protocol. AHCP is extensible, so adding support for other routing
protocols should be easy.
