We found that DHCP works well to configure clients of the mesh, but a
possible problem of using it to configure other mesh nodes is too many
nodes running DHCP servers and potentially handing out conflicting
information.  For mesh /nodes/ we have two options on the table: AHCP
(every node will come with ahcpd pre-installed but not running) and
generating pseudo-random RFC 1918 addresses for the network interfaces
done by the control panel, and working fairly well at this early date).
