Could you be more explicit? You wanted to pass options to your dhcp client. The page mentioned shows two ways of doing that: 1) By setting the variable dhcp_eth0 to a space-delimited string of options, like dhcp_eth0="release nodns nontp nonis" These generic options work for any of the dhclient, dhcpcd, pump and udhcpc clients. 2) By setting ${CLIENTNAME}_eth0 to a space-delimited string of options, you can pass any option to your specific client If you want to pass the -nw option to the dhclient client for the eth0 interface, you would write dhclient_eth0="-nw" All this configuration goes in /etc/conf.d/net (at least for baselayout 1.12.12; I don't know about baslayout 2.0.0)
