WARNING: en0: no IPv4 address assigned

Hi,
yesterday evening I truned off my iMac. The internet connection (via LAN) works fine. This mornig I powered up my iMac and the "en0" got an self assigned IP-Address.

After some trys I found in the System.Log these lines.

From another thread I tryed the
sudo tcpdump -A -s 0 -i en0 port 5353
but can't understand the output. Here are some lines from the output:

No internet because self assigned IP-Address!
How I can fix this?

Thanks.
