<description>
<p>avahi-autoipd implements IPv4LL, "Dynamic Configuration of
IPv4 Link-Local Addresses" (IETF RFC3927), a protocol for
automatic IP address configuration from the link-local
169.254.0.0/16 range without the need for a central server. It
is primarily intended to be used in ad-hoc networks which lack a
DHCP server.</p>
<p>IPv4LL is part of the Zeroconf stack.</p>
<p>avahi-autoipd can be used as stand-alone address allocator
or as plugin for a DHCP client such as ISC's dhclient, where it
can be used as fallback solution if no DHCP server is found.</p>
