Remarks

You can configure DHCP servers in different locations with information about the Datastore/Relay Server to which Workspace Control Agents should connect in that location. In an environment with multiple Datastores/Relay Servers, this ensures that mobile Agents (such as laptops) always connect to a Datastore/Relay Server that is reachable from their current location. Without the DHCP setup, each Agent always connects to a fixed, preconfigured Datastore/Relay Server.

If the DHCP server holds Datastore/Relay Server connection information, this information is transferred to all computers who log on in the network governed by that DHCP server. Use DisableDHCP=True to exempt specific Agent so they retain their original Datastore/Relay Server connection information instead.
