+

+.TP

+.BI \-H\ <host-name>

+Specify the host-name option to send to the DHCP server.  The host-name

+string only contains the client's hostname prefix, to which the server will

+append the ddns-domainname or domain-name options, if any, to derive the

+fully qualified domain name of the client.  The

+.B -H

+.BI \-F\ <fqdn.fqdn>

+Specify the fqdn.fqdn option to send to the DHCP server.  This option cannot

+be used with the

+.B -H

+option.  The fqdn.fqdn option must specify the complete domain name of the

+client host, which the server may use for dynamic DNS updates.

+Specify the list of options the client is to request from the server.  The

+option list must be a single string consisting of option names separated
