Sets new client address -- if authorized.
+ A console is authorized to use the {\bf SetIP} command only if it has a
+ Console resource definition in both the Director and the Console. In
+ addition, if the console name, provided on the {\bf Name =} directive,
+ must be the same as a Client name, the user of that console is permitted
+ to use the {\bf SetIP} command to change the Address directive in the
+ Director's client resource to the IP address of the Console. This
+ permits portables or other machines using DHCP (non-fixed IP addresses)
+ to "notify" the Director of their current IP address.
