12.3.2 DHCP

DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol) automatically assigns a valid IP

address to a network device on the Internet. Allocating a fixed IP address for each

device will result in idle IP addresses when the devices are not in operation. Therefore,

DHCP can make more efficient use of the IP addresses. To use this feature, you have

to have a PC or router to be set as DHCP server to provide the service.
