78 ATMOS Console Commands Reference Manual (Binary) DO-008530-PS, Draft B (26th April 2001)
6.3 pool
6.3.1 Syntax
dhcpclient pool [verbose]
6.3.2 Description
This command displays the state of the memory pool being used by the
DHCP client. Should the client ever run out of memory, use of this
command is helpful in determining the optimum memory pool size for
the client. For example, supporting DHCP client functionality on
several interfaces simultaneously will require proportionately more
memory. The default pool size specified in the system file
dhcpclient is
40000 bytes.
The verbose option lists all allocated and freed memory chunks.
