Q

describe the IP and MAC addressing during a

DHCPDISCOVER

A

the addressing at this point would be:

Source IP: 0.0.0.0

Destination IP: 255.255.255.255

Source MAC: DHCP Client Machine MAC Address

Destination MAC: FF:FF:FF:FF:FF:FF

Q

what are the 4 steps involved in a

host obtaining and configuring an IP address from a DHCP server

and what is the accronym

A

the steps involved in this are:

  1. DHCPDISCOVER D
  2. DHCPOFFER O
  3. DHCPREQUEST R
  4. DHCPACK A

this can be remembered by using the accronym

DORA

Q

no a Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) server server does not necessarily have to be on the same network as the host. However, the router of the hosts network must be configured to forward DHCP messages

Q

describe what takes place during the

DHCPREQUEST

Q

at this stage the DHCP server will be responding to the clients DHCPREQUEST

it is a confirmation message saying that ok i will add you to my list and you can go ahead and set the configuartions i sent you already

once this message has been sent the client will configure its IP settings and the DHCP server will make a note of the client
