dhcp command in FreeBSD?
Is there a dhcp command in FreeBSD 5.3? I know in Linux, there was a command "dhcpcd" that I had to use in order for my WiFi NIC to get all the information that it needed. Is there something similar to this? Thanks.

NAME
wpad - WPA and WPA2 protocol daemon
SYNOPSIS
/usr/lib/inet/wpad [-i interface] [-k pre_shared_key_name]
DESCRIPTION
The wpad daemon provides common client functionality for the WiFi Protected Access (WPA) versions 1 and 2, as defined by IEEE802.11i stan-
dard. WPA was created by the WiFi Alliance, an industry trade group. WPA implements the majority of the IEEE 802.11i standard, and was
intended as an intermediate measure to take the place of Wired Equivalent Privacy (WEP) while 802.11i was prepared. WPA2 implements the
full standard.
wpad provides the following WPA/IEEE 802.11i features:
o WPA-PSK ("WPA-Personal")
o Key management for CCMP, TKIP, WEP104, WEP40
Stop and start the wpad daemon using dladm(1M). Use:
# dladm connect-wifi
...to start the wpad daemon. Use:
# dladm disconnect-wifi
...to stop the daemon.
OPTIONS
The following options are supported:
-i interface
Specify a WiFi Link interface to start the wpad daemon.
-k pre_shared_key_name
Specify the pre-shared key used for the WiFi Link.
EXAMPLES
Example 1 Starting the wpad Daemon on Specific WiFi Link
To create the WPA key psk, enter the following command:
# dladm create-secobj -c wpa psk
To use key psk to connect to ESSID wlan on link ath0, enter the following command:
# dladm connect-wifi -k psk -e wlan ath0
Example 2 Stopping the wpad Daemon on Specific WiFi Link
To stop the daemon on the link ath0, enter:
# dladm disconnect-wifi ath0
