How does a Device Obtain an IP Address and Subnet Mask? 59
This type of IP Address operates on a subnet mask of ‘255.255.0.0’.
See Table 4 for an example about how a network (only four computers
represented) and a Access Point might be configured.
Table 4 IP Addressing and Subnet Masking
How does a Device
Obtain an IP
Address and Subnet
Mask?
There are three different ways to obtain an IP address and the subnet
mask. These are:
■
Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) Addressing
■
Static Addressing
■
Automatic Addressing (Auto-IP Addressing)
DHCP Addressing The Acces Point can obtain an address from a DHCP server on the current
network..
Static Addressing You must enter an IP Address and the subnet mask manually on every
device. Using a static IP and subnet mask means the address is
permanently fixed.
Auto-IP Addressing Network devices use automatic IP addressing if they are configured to
acquire an address using DHCP but are unable to contact a DHCP server.
Automatic IP addressing is a scheme where devices allocate themselves
an IP address at random from the industry standard subnet of
169.254.x.x (with a subnet mask of 255.255.0.0). If two devices allocate
themselves the same address, the conflict is detected and one of the
devices allocates itself a new address.
Automatic IP addressing support was introduced by Microsoft in the
Windows 98 operating system and is also supported in Windows 2000.
