Linux renew ip command using DHCP
The -r flag explicitly releases the current lease, and once the lease has been released, the client exits. For example, open terminal application and type the command:
$ sudo dhclient -r
Now obtain fresh IP address using DHCP on Linux:
$ sudo dhclient
Nftable
The nftables
framework provides packet classification facilities. The most notable features are:
- built-in lookup tables instead of linear processing
- a single framework for both the
IPv4
andIPv6
protocols - rules all applied atomically instead of fetching, updating, and storing a complete rule set
- support for debugging and tracing in the rule set (
nftrace
) and monitoring trace events (in thenft
tool) - more consistent and compact syntax, no protocol-specific extensions
- a Netlink API for third-party applications
The nftables
framework uses tables to store chains. The chains contain individual rules for performing actions. The libnftnl
library can be used for low-level interaction with nftables
Netlink API over the libmnl
library.
To display the effect of rule set changes, use the nft list ruleset
command. Since these tools add tables, chains, rules, sets, and other objects to the nftables
rule set, be aware that nftables
rule-set operations, such as the nft flush ruleset
command, might affect rule sets installed using the formerly separate legacy commands.
