Complete Win2000 DHCP service settings in three steps

In some network management, we certainly know the powerful role of DHCP. For this purpose, let's talk about the settings of the Win2000 DHCP service. There are three steps in total, which are simple and clear. I hope you can master this setting method.

Win2000 DHCP service settings 1. DHCP Overview

DHCP is short for Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol Dynamic Host Configure Protocol. A DHCP server allows administrators to assign and specify global and sub-Network-specific TCP/IP parameters, including IP addresses, gateways, and DNS servers. The client does not need to manually Configure TCP/IP. When the client disconnects from the server, the old IP address will be released for reuse. According to this feature, for example, if you only have 20 valid IP addresses and 50 managed machines, as long as the 50 machines simultaneously use the server's DHCP service, no more than 20, then you will not generate insufficient IP Address resources.

If you have configured the conflict detection settings, the DHCP server will try to Ping the connectivity of each available address in the test scope before providing the addresses in the lease to the client. This ensures that each IP address provided to the customer is not used by another non-DHCP computer with manual TCP/IP configuration.

(If you only have one computer and the Internet IP address is on the server, you will not perform this operation if you do not have a LAN host)
