waht is DHCP?

Answer Posted / ram prakash chaudhary

Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (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. RFCs 2131 and 2132 define DHCP as an
Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF) standard based on
Bootstrap Protocol (BOOTP), a protocol with which DHCP
shares many implementation details. DHCP allows hosts to
obtain necessary TCP/IP configuration information from a
DHCP server.
