2. DHCP Background / Server dhcpd - Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol Server allows hosts on a TCP/IP network to request and be assigned IP addresses from a pool defined in dhcpd.conf adds lease concept to BOOTP predecessor

3. DHCP Background / Server reads dhcpd.conf and assembles list of addresses for use in subnet allocates address following request assigns a lease to client records lease in dhcpd.leases server can keep lease states across boots renews expired leases for clients

4. DHCP Background / Client dhcpcd – dhcp client gets host info (IP address, netmask, gateway, etc.) from a DHCP server lab1 – 134.198.161.101 configures own network interface requests lease and lease renewals

5. DHCP Server Installation lab1.research.cs.uofs.edu Network Servers installation package dhcp-3.0.1-11

6. etc/dhcpd.conf option domain-name "lab1.research.cs.uofs.edu"; option domain-name-servers 134.198.10.10, 134.198.100.150; default-lease-time 600; max-lease-time 7200; ddns-update-style ad-hoc; subnet 134.198.161.0 netmask 255.255.255.0 { range 134.198.161.50 134.198.161.99; option routers 134.198.161.254; }
