• DHCP stands for Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol. DHCP is a protocol used by networked computers (clients) to obtain IP addresses and other parameters such as the default gateway, subnet mask, and IP addresses of DNS servers from a DHCP server. A Static IP address is where a computer uses the same address every time a user logs on to a network.
