• Description:
DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol) is a protocol which allows individual
devices on an IP network to get their own network configuration information (IP address,
subnetmask, broadcast address, etc.) from a DHCP server. The overall purpose of DHCP is to
make it easier to administer a large network. The dhcp package includes the ISC DHCP service
and relay agent. To use DHCP on your network, install a DHCP service (or relay agent), and on
clients run a DHCP client daemon. The dhcp package provides the ISC DHCP service and relay
agent.
