| 117 | The <command>dhcpserver</command> commands enable you to control the DHCP

| 118 | server that is built into VirtualBox. You may find this useful when
|

| 119 | using internal or host-only networking. Theoretically, you can also
|
|---|
| 120 | enable it for a bridged network, but that may cause conflicts with other
|
|---|
| 121 | DHCP servers in your physical network.
