You said-
Well, the -r flag will release the current lease, then you could
immediately request another lease...
I ask
Put the -r flag where and how to immediately request another lease
Looking for statements to put in /etc/dhclient.conf so every time
lease gets renewed an new dynamic IP address is gotten.
Details please
