Why shouldn clients assign IP numbers without the use of a server?
It is theoretically possible to develop software for client-machines that finds an unused address by picking them out of the blue and broadcasting a request of all the other client machines to see if they are using them. Appletalk is designed around this idea, and Apple’s MacTCP can be configured to do this for IP. However, this method of IP address assignment has disadvantages.
