Description
Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) provides a means of allocating and managing
IP addresses dynamically over a network. Before the advent of DHCP, administrators
configured each host on a network with an IP address, subnet mask, and default gateway.
Maintaining the changes and the logs of the changes took a tremendous amount of time and
was prone to error. DHCP uses a client/server model in which the network information is
maintained and updated dynamically by the system.
This book discusses DHCP in a Windows 2000 environment. It provides an introduction to
the DHCP protocol and shows how to implement a DHCP server into the network. It also
covers the more advanced features of DHCP.
The book begins with an overview of the TCP/IP protocol suite and shows how DHCP
coexists with the rest of the TCP/IP suite. It identifies DHCP's predecessors, RARP and
BOOTP, and explores the reasons that DHCP was developed. DHCP design considerations
are discussed, as well as the different methods of deployment. The book shows how to install
and configure DHCP servers in routed and non-routed environments and how to configure a
client to use DHCP. It also discusses how to administer a DHCP server in Windows 2000
using DHCP scopes, options, and leases. Finally, the book covers DHCP's close relationship
with Dynamic DNS, as well as some of the future directions for DHCP. |
