Detailed explanation-1: -DHCP is a client-server protocol in which servers manage a pool of unique IP addresses, as well as information about client configuration parameters. The servers then assign addresses out of those address pools. DHCP-enabled clients send a request to the DHCP server whenever they connect to a network.

Detailed explanation-2: -Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol or DHCP is an IP network protocol that relies on client-server architecture to automatically set IP addresses and other attributes to an IP host to enable information transfer between network nodes.

Detailed explanation-3: -DHCP server: This is a computer that runs DHCP and includes IP addresses and similar settings. It’s usually a server or router, but anything like an SD-WAN system can be used as a host. DHCP client: This is the endpoint receiving DHCP server configuration information.

Detailed explanation-4: -When DHCP is enabled, the DHCP server manages and assigns IP addresses without administrator intervention. Clients can move to other subnets without manual reconfiguration because they obtain, from a DHCP server, new client information appropriate for the new network.
