Yes, of course. You just need to filter for all BOOTP/DHCP stuff, and then send a DHCP request (or wait for any to be send).<br />
But DHCP servers do not advertise themselves without a request. Info needs to get &quot;pulled&quot;.

Wireshark

Network analysis is the process of identifying and remediating the processes and systems within a network, including performance, connectivity and security. The process is performed through the use of tools developed for monitoring and analyzing network activity. Network problems that involve finding an optimal way of doing something are studied under the name combinatorial optimization. Examples include network flow, shortest path problem, transport problem, transshipment problem, location problem, matching problem, assignment problem, packing problem, routing problem, Critical Path Analysis and PERT (Program Evaluation & Review Technique).
