DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol) - A TCP/IP service protocol that offers dynamic leased configuration of host IP addresses and distributes other configuration parameters to eligible network clients. DHCP provides safe, reliable, and simple TCP/IP network configuration, prevents address conflicts, and helps conserve the use of client IP addresses on the network. DHCP uses a client/server model where the DHCP server maintains centralized management of IP addresses that are used on the network. DHCP- supporting clients can then request and obtain lease of an IP address from a DHCP server as part of their network start up process. See your Network Administrator for further information.

STATIC -For a local area connection (LAN), in IP address, Subnet mask, and Default gateway, type the IP address, subnet mask, and default gateway addresses. For all other connections, in IP address, type the IP address. See your Network Administrator for further information.

IP Address

A 32-bit address used to identify a node on an IP internetwork. Each node on the IP internetwork must be assigned a unique IP address, which is made up of a network identifier and a host identifier. This address is typically represented in dotted-decimal notation, with the decimal value of each octet separated by a period, for example, 192.168.7.27.

You can configure the IP address statically or dynamically through DHCP. See your Network Administrator for further information.
