DHCP Bench

DHCP Bench gives a device plugged into a USB Ethernet adapter its first IP address, so you can open its web page or SSH in and set it up. Built for PDUs and other devices on a workbench.

This installer puts:

• DHCP Bench.app in /Applications
• a link to the command-line twin dhcpbench in /usr/local/bin

DHCP Bench updates itself: it checks once a day and asks before installing, never while the server is running.

Requirements: macOS 14 or later on Apple Silicon, and a USB Ethernet adapter.

Installing over an earlier version replaces the app and keeps your leases, logs and settings.
