Subject: Making udhcpc get a new lease when iwd connects to a network
Date: Sun, 21 Jan 2024 21:53:29 -0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <87h6j670ye.fsf@espindo.la> (raw)

Hi,

I know that iwd has a builtin dhcp client, but I am using it in alpine
linux and would like to use the same dhcp client with both wired and
wireless interfaces. The default client in alpine is udhcpc.

As far as I can tell, the impedance mismatch between udhcpc and iwd is
that udhcpc expect commands via unix signals and iwd send property
changes via dbus.

I wrote a bit of glue code and posted it to
https://codeberg.org/espindola/iwd2udhcpc. It works, at least on my
laptop, but I am wondering if anyone knows of a simpler way.

Thanks,
Rafael
