Hello Ahmad, Yes, it would be very helpful and straightforward for future users to set up DHCP networking. Sure, I will submit a patch to add it in Documentation. planning to include this as an example under the link: https://www.barebox.org/doc/latest/user/networking.html#lowlevel-network-device-configuration as 1.3.1.1. or if you want in other places then please let me know.
