network parameters. A pool of allocated addresses and parameters is created on the server.
The remote station, on network login, requests network parameters from the DHCP server. The
DHCP server provides the remote station with parameters such as IP address, subnet mask,
default gateway, and Domain Name Server (DNS) information.
The Avaya G250/G350/G450 Device can act as a DHCP server both for devices physically
