How DHCP Works?
The DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol) is a client/server protocol designed to provide the four pieces of information for a diskless computer or computer that is booted for the first time. These four pieces are
1. The IP address of the computer
2. The subnet mask of the computer
3. The IP address of a router
4. The IP address of a name server
Normally, a DHCP server has a database with a list of available IP addresses. This database
makes DHCP dynamic. When a DHCP client requests a temporary IP address, the
DHCP server goes to the pool of available IP addresses and assigns an IP
address for a negotiable period of time. This video explains how DHCP client and server manage all these transitions in detail.
