Holy thread resurrection Batman!

And yes, it IS DCHP.

There are two modes of DCHP, the initial broadcast mode, where a system with no address broadcasts a request, and the DHCP server (or on most cable, the UBR private address acting as a DHCP proxy) responds by broadcast.

The second mode is renewal, directed to the DHCP server which is now known.
