Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol - DHCPDynamic host configuration protocol is a process that dynamically assigns an Internet Protocol (IP) address from a server to clients on an as needed basis. The IP addresses are owned or controlled by the server and are stored in a pool of available addresses. When the DHCP server senses a client needs an IP address (e.g. when a computer boots up in a network), it assigned one of the IP addresses available in the pool.
Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) Operation
This figure shows how a computer uses DHCP to obtain a temporary IP address when it requires an Internet communication session. In this example, the computer requests a connection with an Internet service provider (ISP) via a modem that is connected to a universal serial bus (USB) line. When the Internet service provider receives the request for connection, it assigns an IP address from its list of available IP addresses. The computer will then use this IP address for all of its communications with the Internet until it disconnects the connection to the ISP.
