---Implement a Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) client. 
--
-- DHCP, defined in rfc2132 and rfc2131, is a protocol for hosts to automatically 
-- configure themselves on a network (that is, obtain an ip address). This library,
-- which have a trivial one-function interface, can send out DHCP packets of many
-- types and parse the responses. 
--
-- @author "Ron Bowes"

--
-- 2011-12-28 - Revised by Patrik Karlsson <patrik@cqure.net>
--   o Split dhcp_send into dhcp_send, dhcp_receive
--   o Added basic support for adding options to requests
--   o Added possibility to ovverride transaction id
--   o Added WPAD action

--
--@param request_type    The type of request as an integer (use the <code>request_types</code> table at the
--                       top of this file). 
--@param ip_address      Your ip address (as a dotted-decimal string). This tells the DHCP server where to 
--                       send the response. Setting it to "255.255.255.255" or "0.0.0.0" is generally acceptable (if not,
--                       host.ip_src can work). 
--@param mac_address     Your mac address (as a string up to 16 bytes) where the server will send the response. Like
--                       <code>ip_address</code>, setting to the broadcast address (FF:FF:FF:FF:FF:FF) is 
--                       common (host.mac_addr_src works). 
--@param options         [optional] A table of additional request options where each option is a table containing the
--                       following fields:
--                         * <code>number</code> - The option number
--                         * <code>type</code>   - The option type ("string" or "ip")
--                         * <code>value</code>  - The option value
--@param request_options [optional] The options to request from the server, as an array of integers. For the 
--                       acceptable options, see the <code>actions</code> table above or have a look at rfc2132.
--                       Some DHCP servers (such as my Linksys WRT54g) will ignore this list and send whichever
--                       information it wants. Default: all options marked as 'default' in the <code>actions</code>
--                       table above are requested (the typical interesting ones) if no verbosity is given. 
--                       If any level of verbosity is on, get all types. 
--@param overrides       [optional] A table of overrides. If a field in the table matches a field in the DHCP
--                       packet (see rfc2131 section 2 for a list of possible fields), the value in the table
--                       will be sent instead of the default value. 
--@param lease_time      [optional] The lease time used when requestint an IP. Default: 1 second. 
--@param transaction_id  The identity of the transaction.
--
--@return status (true or false)
--@return The parsed response, as a table.

---Build and send any kind of DHCP packet, and parse the response. This is the only interface
-- to the DHCP library, and should be the only one necessary. 
--
-- All DHCP packet have the same structure, but different fields. It is therefore easy to build
-- any of the possible request types:
-- * DHCPDISCOVER
-- * DHCPOFFER
-- * DHCPREQUEST
-- * DHCPDECLINE
-- * DHCPACK
-- * DHCPNAK
-- * DHCPRELEASE
-- * DHCPINFORM
--
-- Although these will all build a valid packet with any option, and the default options (that can be
-- overridden with the <code>overrides</code> argument) won't necessarily work with every request
-- type. If you're going to build some DHCP code on your own, I recommend reading rfc2131.
--
--@param request_type    The type of request as an integer (use the <code>request_types</code> table at the
--                       top of this file). 
--@param ip_address      Your ip address (as a dotted-decimal string). This tells the DHCP server where to 
--                       send the response. Setting it to "255.255.255.255" or "0.0.0.0" is generally acceptable (if not,
--                       host.ip_src can work). 
--@param mac_address     Your mac address (as a string up to 16 bytes) where the server will send the response. Like
--                       <code>ip_address</code>, setting to the broadcast address (FF:FF:FF:FF:FF:FF) is 
--                       common (host.mac_addr_src works). 
--@param options         [optional] A table of additional request options where each option is a table containing the
--                       following fields:
--                         * <code>number</code> - The option number
--                         * <code>type</code>   - The option type ("string" or "ip")
--                         * <code>value</code>  - The option value
--@param request_options [optional] The options to request from the server, as an array of integers. For the 
--                       acceptable options, see the <code>actions</code> table above or have a look at rfc2132.
--                       Some DHCP servers (such as my Linksys WRT54g) will ignore this list and send whichever
--                       information it wants. Default: all options marked as 'default' in the <code>actions</code>
--                       table above are requested (the typical interesting ones) if no verbosity is given. 
--                       If any level of verbosity is on, get all types. 
--@param overrides       [optional] A table of overrides. If a field in the table matches a field in the DHCP
--                       packet (see rfc2131 section 2 for a list of possible fields), the value in the table
--                       will be sent instead of the default value. 
--@param lease_time      [optional] The lease time used when requestint an IP. Default: 1 second. 
--@return status (true or false)
--@return The parsed response, as a table.
