How Does DHCP work?

The DHCP Server has a Pool of Available addresses that it can hand out

The Network Administrator (You) create these pools from the addresses you have

The DHCP Server then Leases the Addresses it has to DHCP Clients requesting an Address

The Network Administrator (You) determine and configure the length of the lease

The Client gets an Address from the Server in a 4 Step Process:
