automatically configure a network device in a diskless
workstation to give its own IP address.

Communication has four components: sender,
receiver, message, and medium. In networks, devices
and application tasks and processes communicate
messages to each other over media. They represent the
sender and receivers. The data they send is the
message. The cabling or transmission method they use

while it is still connected. DHCP also supports a mix
of static and dynamic IP addresses. This simplifies the
task for network administrators because the software
keeps track of IP addresses rather than requiring an
administrator to manage the task. This means a new
computer can be added to a network without the hassle
of manually assigning it a unique IP address. DHCP
