During the initial boot, the machines require a DHCP server in order to establish a network connection to download their Ignition config files. After the initial boot, the machines can be configured to use static IP addresses." Suggestions for improvement: AFAIK, the static IP addresses is an unsupported configuration and the documentation should reflect that with some note, otherwise, it should have examples or an external link to more detailed steps.
