+# This example script retrieves the DHCP state of a given interface.
+# In the interest of keeping the KVP daemon code free of distro specific
+# information; the kvp daemon code invokes this external script to gather
+# DHCP setting for the specific interface.
+#
+# Input: Name of the interface
+#
+# Output: The script prints the string "Enabled" to stdout to indicate
+#	that DHCP is enabled on the interface. If DHCP is not enabled,
+#	the script prints the string "Disabled" to stdout.
+#
+# Each Distro is expected to implement this script in a distro specific
+# fashion. For instance, on Distros that ship with Network Manager enabled,
+# this script can be based on the Network Manager APIs for retrieving DHCP
+# information.
