7.12.13 DHCP
Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) is a communication protocol that lets network
administrators to manage centrally and automate the assignment of Internet Protocol (IP)
addresses in an organization's network. Using the Internet Protocol, each machine that can
connect to the Internet needs a unique IP address. When an organization sets up its computer
users with a connection to the Internet, an IP address must be assigned to each machine.
Without DHCP, the IP address must be entered manually at each computer. If computers move to
another location in another part of the network, a new IP address must be entered. DHCP lets a
network administrator to supervise and distribute IP addresses from a central point and
automatically sends a new IP address when a computer is plugged into a different place in the
network.
To configure DHCP server, move the cursor to dhcp and press enter.
