 If DHCPClient detects a media change on an interface (i.e.
 unplugging/replugging the ethernet cable), it issues a release/discover.
 Depending on the server, this can result in losing the IP you last had,
 which probably isn't a desired outcome. It should just issue a dhcprequest
 in that instance instead.
