Definition
Abbreviation for Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol. A protocol in
which a client computer on a TCP/IP network automatically specifies
the network settings from the server. With collective management of
the IP address for DHCP clients on the DHCP server, you can avoid
duplication of an address and you can build a network easily.
A method of using only black and white to create the illusion of dif-

DNS allows the user to access other computers over a network by
specifying host names, instead of difficult to memorize and under-
stand IP addresses.
Abbreviation for Dots Per Inch. A resolution unit used by printers and

A code (address) that is used to identify individual network devices
over the Internet. A maximum of three digits for four numbers are

es, including computers, which are connected to the Internet.
Abbreviation for Joint Photographic Experts Group. One of the file
formats for saving image data. (The file extension is ".jpg".) The com-
pression ratio is roughly 1/10 to 1/100. This format uses an effective
method in the compression of continuous-tone images, such as
photographs.
