DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol) Definition:
DHCP is a client/server protocol that automatically provides an Internet Protocol (IP) host with its IP address and other related configuration information such as the subnet mask and default gateway
Every device on a TCP/IP-based network must have a unique unicast IP address to access the network and its resources. Without DHCP, IP addresses for new computers or computers that are moved from one subnet to another must be configured manually. With DHCP, this entire process is automated and managed centrally
DHCP Benefits:
Steady IP address configuration: DHCP minimizes configuration errors caused by manual IP address configuration, such as typographical errors, or address conflicts caused by the assignment of an IP address to more than one computer at the same time.
Network administration: Centralized and automated TCP/IP configuration.
Ports:
DHCP uses UDP port number 67 for a server, and UDP port number 68 for the client
How Does DHCP work?
DHCP Discovery – the client computer sends out a broadcast packet including its name and MAC address to find a DHCP server.
DHCP Offer – A DHCP server responds to “Discovery” with an offer for an IP address that is available.
DHCP Request – The client computer then replies with a DHCP REQUEST to ask the DHCP server for the IP address offered.
DHCP Ack – The DHCP server sends a DHCP ACK to tell the client that it’s okay to use the requested IP address assigned to it now.
