Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP)
• DHCP Server
The DHCP Server offers centralized management of TCP/IP client configurations,
including IP addresses, gateway addresses, and DNS addresses. Upon startup, each
network client receives its TCP/IP settings automatically from the SonicWALL DHCP
Server.
• DHCP Client
DHCP Client allows the SonicWALL to acquire TCP/IP settings (such as IP address,
gateway address, DNS address) from your ISP. This is necessary if your ISP assigns you
a dynamic IP address.
