Access Point

“hub” for 802.11b wireless PCs and can also provide a

DHCP
Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol. A TCP/IP protocol
that defines a way to automatically assign IP addresses
to computers on a network. IP addresses are managed
by a DHCP server on the network. When a computer
starts, it requests an IP address from the server. The
server leases an address for a set time. After that time,
the computer makes a new request. When a Windows
computer is configured to obtain an IP address
automatically, it attempts to get an address from a DHCP
server. Windows 2000 and Windows NT servers include
DHCP server software that can provide this service.
Network appliances that rely on TCP/IP often include a
DHCP server.
