Answer Posted / sameer_swnt

"DHCP - Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol"

DHCP allows a computer to join an IP-based network without
having a pre-configured IP address. DHCP is a protocol that
assigns unique IP addresses to devices, then releases and
renews these addresses as devices leave and re-join the
network.

DHCP assigns ip address through a pool of ip address
provided during DHCP configration.
