ITPEC FE Morning April 2021 Question 33
ITPEC FE Morning April 2021 — Question 33 of 80
DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol) — automatically assigns IP addresses to devices on a network.
When a device connects to a network, DHCP handles IP assignment without manual configuration.
Why not others:
- (a) Directory service protocol — describes LDAP (Lightweight Directory Access Protocol)
- (c) Private-to-global IP conversion — describes NAT (Network Address Translation)
- (d) Email forwarding protocol — describes SMTP (Simple Mail Transfer Protocol)
Key rule: DHCP = automatic IP assignment. Remember: Dynamic Host Configuration → configures hosts dynamically.
