Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol

   Also found in: Acronyms, Wikipedia, Hutchinson 0.03 sec.
(protocol)Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol - (DHCP) A protocol that provides a means to dynamically allocate IP addresses to computers on a local area network. The system administrator assigns a range of IP addresses to DHCP and each client computer on the LAN has its TCP/IP software configured to request an IP address from the DHCP server. The request and grant process uses a lease concept with a controllable time period.

DHCP is defined in RFC 2131.

Microsoft introduced DHCP on their NT server with version 3.5 in late 1994.

lt;p>The NIST IPv6 test plan covers basic IPv6 functionality as well as related standards such as: IP Security (IPsec), Internet Key Exchange (IKEv2), Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCPv6), Open Shortest Path First (OSPFv3), Border Gateway Protocol (BGP4+) and multicast requirements in MLDv2.
They cover IPv6 addressing, IPv6 network constructs, including infrastructure, auto-configuration methods and dynamic host configuration protocol, details of IPv6 and related protocols, including upper-layer protocol issues and creating modified EUI-64 format interface identifiers, transition approaches and mechanisms, including translation mechanisms, IPv6 software and hardware, implementation of transition strategies, applications and security.
