What is the correct way to set DHCP + static IP on a wired connection?

I thought of that, but doesn’t this mean a single DCHP request at the start and then no retries for the next 68 years? If the server doens’t respond the first time I’m without a connection until the next reboot.

Would it make sense to have
autoconnect-retries=0
and
dhcp-timeout=X
so I have this dance once every 10/60 minutes or once a day?
