When an interface is defined as "DHCP" type, it's can be helpful that the machine stay with a fix predefined ip (to be accessed from the interface for example).

You can say use the "STATIC" type in these case, but "DHPC" with a field where the fix ip can be indicated, can be more simple to have some DHCP functions (like receive DNS) but with predefined IP (for example when the machine who is use as DHCP can't give itself a predefined IP connected to the MAC for example ...

I think these function can be appreciated by other people too

Thanks
