Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP)
Overview
Dynamic host configuration protocol (DHCP) is an application layer protocol that dynamically assigns
IP addresses and other configuration parameters to network end-stations (hosts) based on configuration
policies determined by network administrators.
An Aggregator can operate as a DHCP client. As a DHCP client, the Aggregator requests an IP address
from a DHCP server.
