DHCP and DNS
Network > DHCP and DNS
Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) is a network protocol that is used to configure network
devices to communicate on an IP network. A DHCP client uses the DHCP protocol to acquire
configuration information, such as an IP address, a default route, and one or more DNS server
addresses from a DHCP server. The DHCP client then uses this information to configure its host. Once
the configuration process is complete, the host is able to communicate on the network.
