What port does DHCP Client use?
DHCP Client commonly uses these ports: 68. These are community database references — actual configuration may differ.
How do I check if DHCP Client is running?
Run sudo ss -tupn 'sport = :68' on the server to check for listening processes on these ports. Also use systemctl status <service> to check the service state. Without root you may not see other users' processes. A listening port alone does not prove the software identity — verify with the config file and process name.
