6.6 DHCP Server
DHCP is the abbreviation of Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol that is a protocol for
assigning dynamic IP addresses to devices on a network. With dynamic addressing, a
device can have a different IP address every time it connects to the network. In some
systems, the device's IP address can even change while it is still connected. DHCP
also supports a mix of static and dynamic IP addresses. Dynamic addressing
simplifies network administration because the software keeps track of IP addresses
rather than requiring an administrator to manage the task. This means that a new
computer can be added to a network without the hassle of manually assigning it a
unique IP address.
The system provides the DHCP server function. Having enabled the DHCP server
function, the switch system will be configured as a DHCP server.
