 I looked into /etc/rc.conf and It appears that is not dhcplient which is 
 set but dhcpd.
 
 I set dhclient=YES and remove dcpd from /etc/rc.conf and remove dhcpcd 
 file from rc.d.
 
 So now I get anoher problem dhcpclient doesn't get IP a boot time, but 
 get an ip when I run /etc/rc.d/dhclient start .
 
 How can I do for run dhclient request at boot time ?

Because the client identifier take the precedence to the mac address if I want get a static IP from the router from NetBSD I must configure the BSD dhcp client for it doesn't send this identifier. But whatever I try to do with the configuration file /etc/dhclient.conf the router always receive a bytes sequence in place of client identifier, and another IP than expected is attribued.
