You tell you dhcp server to give a static address to your mac address upon
request.  That's set up on your dhcp server, NOT on your laptop.

Right.  This stuff is set up on the machine (router, whatever) that provides
your dhcp service, NOT on the client.  The client requests an address, the dhcp
server provides one.  Instruct the dhcp server to always provide the same
address to your mac address and ta-da!
