It depends on what you want to use it for.
If you are trying to build a network appliance, dnsmasq might be what you want.

That's DHCPC, client not server. The server is included, but can't be started from the services gui as it needs configuration.

Please see the busybox docs on how to configure udhcpd.
The only barriers that can stop you are the ones you create yourself.
