DHCP Definition: DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol) is a network management protocol used to automatically assign IP addresses and configuration settings to devices connected to a network.
Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) is a network protocol that automates the process of assigning IP addresses, subnet masks, and other network configuration parameters to devices connected to a network. DHCP allows devices to join a network and obtain necessary network configuration information dynamically, eliminating the need for manual configuration.
