DHCP on Ethernet VLAN interface

Is there any way to enable DHCP client on a "Ethernet VLAN" interface?

I'm currently running Astaro in VMWare ESXi and have set up virtual NICs for each VLAN in VMWare. I can then add these NICs as "Cable (DHCP)" and each one will get its IP from DHCP.

However, I'd like to move the firewall to a dedicated box and this would require Astaro to do the VLAN handling through the use of several "Ethernet VLAN" interfaces. However these require that I enter an IP and do not seem to support DHCP.

Are there any workaround for this?

Just interested in. Why do you need DHCP on VLAN's? Normally (in our case) VLAN's are only used in the internal network, and there is no reason to use DHCP on them for us.

You can add a feature request for it: Astaro Gateway Feature Requests
