Situation:
You have assigned IP addresses to your server in the customer control panel and now want to automatically configure the network using DHCP.
Background information:
The DHCP connection of IP addresses is intended exclusively for the rescue system and will be activated at the earliest 6 hours after allocation of the IP in the customer center to the contract or changes are updated.
What you should not do:
Technically, you can use a DHCP client to configure your network card. Even with virtualized hosts, you can use DHCP to set up the network card. However, we strongly advise against using a DHCP client, as these can lead to unplanned and poorly diagnosable errors.
What you should do:
Always set up the network configuration manually and double-check it. Many supposed "server failures" are due to a faulty and partly incorrect network configuration.
