Cable runs off your hostname. So you wand to send your hostname and
request everything else. If you are running a name server you will want
to prepend it's IP address after the request. Then pick a media for the
connection to bind to.
Exanple config:
interface "fxp0" {
send host-name "c1529030";
request subnet-mask, broadcast-address, time-offset, routers,
domain-name, domain-name-servers;
require subnet-mask;
media "media autoselect";}
