    <title>Description</title>

    <para>These configuration files control global network parameters.
    For e.g. DHCP Unique Identifier (DUID).</para>

    <title>[DUID] Section Options</title>

    <para>This section configures the DHCP Unique Idendifier (DUID) value used by DHCP
    protocol. DHCPv6 client protocol sends the DHCP Unique Identifier and the interface
    Identity Association Identifier (IAID) to a DHCP server when acquiring a dynamic IPv6
    address. DHCPv4 client protocol sends IAID and DUID to the DHCP server when acquiring
    a dynamic IPv4 address if <option>ClientIdentifier=duid</option>. IAID and DUID allows
    a DHCP server to uniquely identify the machine and the interface requesting a DHCP IP.
    To configure IAID and ClientIdentifier, see <citerefentry><refentrytitle>systemd.network
    </refentrytitle><manvolnum>5</manvolnum></citerefentry>.</para>

    <para>The DUID value specified here overrides the DUID that systemd-networkd
    generates using the machine-id from the <filename>/etc/machine-id</filename> file.
    To configure DUID per-network, see <citerefentry><refentrytitle>systemd.network
    </refentrytitle><manvolnum>5</manvolnum></citerefentry>.</para>

    <para>The configured DHCP DUID should conform to the specification in 
    <ulink url="http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc3315#section-9">RFC 3315</ulink>,
    <ulink url="http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc6355">RFC 6355</ulink>. To configure IAID, see
    <citerefentry><refentrytitle>systemd.network</refentrytitle><manvolnum>5</manvolnum>
    </citerefentry>.</para>

    <para>The following options are available in <literal>[DUID]</literal> section:</para>

    <variablelist class='network-directives'>

      <varlistentry>
        <term><varname>RawData=</varname></term>
