Dynamic addressing simplifies network administration because the software keeps
track of IP addresses rather than requiring an administrator to manage the task. This
means that a new computer can be added to a network without the hassle of
manually assigning it a unique IP address. In order to do so within an IP routing
environment, the IP routers have to support DHCP relay agent functionality.
ASWipLL as an IP router is also a DHCP relay agent/server.
