shleases(8) System Manager's Manual shleases(8)NAME
shleases - Displays a DHCP client's IP address leases.
SYNOPSIS
/usr/sbin/shleases filenames...
DESCRIPTION
The shleases command reads the file that contains information about a client's leases and displays its contents on stdout. By default this
file is /etc/join/leases. There are as many leases as there are interfaces which JOIN has configured. A lease is identified by the name of
the interface (for example, ln0) and the IP address assigned to it. It is characterized by a start time, an expiration time, and the IP
address of the server which granted the lease.

dhclient.leases - DHCP client lease database
DESCRIPTION
The Internet Systems Consortium DHCP client keeps a persistent database of leases that it has acquired that are still valid. The database
is a free-form ASCII file containing one valid declaration per lease. If more than one declaration appears for a given lease, the last
one in the file is used. The file is written as a log, so this is not an unusual occurrance.
The format of the lease declarations is described in dhclient.conf(5).
