Now I just tried with `dhclient` on my Main Workstation to check the
time it takes "from scratch" to bring up and get an IP from DHCP on
eno1.
Keep in mind that the "path" to the Router/Gateway (OPNSense Router:
192.168.1.7 master and 192.168.1.8 slave, or 192.168.1.1 Virtual IP) is
much longer (there are like 3 extra Switches in between).
```

Targeting the interface explicitly i.e. `dhclient -v eno1` didn't change the
timing of the first attempt much, went only from ~10s to ~7-9s:
```
root@HOST:/# rm /var/lib/dhcp/dhclient.*
root@HOST:/# ifconfig eno1 0.0.0.0
root@HOST:/# ifconfig eno1 down
root@HOST:/# date +"%Y%m%d-%H%M%S"; time dhclient -v eno1; date

If the Interface is already up but the lease file is removed (and the Interface
got its IP Address unassigned):
```
