What is a DHCP client?

1 Answer

Answer :

answer:From the wikipedia article “Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) is a protocol used by networked devices (clients) to obtain the parameters necessary for operation in an Internet Protocol network. This protocol reduces system administration workload, allowing devices to be added to the network with little or no manual configuration.” The purpose of this is to uniquely identify each computer connected to the router as other computers on the network will see the computer. trasnlation please… Essentially, when you connect your computer to a router, the router will assign a router-specific IP address. DHCP allows for the router to do this automagically, without you having to do anything (supposedly…) without naming conflicts.
