Overview
|
|
********
|
|
|
|
The Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) is a network management protocol
|
|
used on IPv4 networks. A DHCPv4 server dynamically assigns an IPv4 address
|
|
and other network configuration parameters to each device on a network so they
|
|
can communicate with other IP networks.
|
|
See this
|
|
`DHCP Wikipedia article <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dynamic_Host_Configuration_Protocol>`_
|
|
for a detailed overview of how DHCP works.
|
|
|
|
Note that Zephyr only supports DHCP client functionality.
