There are two ways to configure a computer with a network address.
You can manually go to each computer, turn it on, give it an address, then turn it off. This is very easy for one computer, very tough for those 8,000 computers we were just talking about.
The second option is to handle IP address assignments dynamically. In this case we use a software program to assign IP addresses. With this scenario, when a computer is turned on its IP protocol requests an address. This process is accomplished with the Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol, DHCP.
