Chapter 16 - Host configuration: BOOTP and DHCP. Upon completion you will be able to: Know the types of information required by a system on boot-up, know how BOOTP operates, know how DHCP operates, understand the differences between BOOTP and DHCP, understand the DHCP transition state diagram. | Chapter 16 Upon completion you will be able to: Host Configuration: BOOTP and DHCP Know the types of information required by a system on boot-up Know how BOOTP operates Know how DHCP operates Understand the differences between BOOTP and DHCP Understand the DHCP transition state diagram Objectives TCP/IP Protocol Suite BOOTP The Bootstrap Protocol (BOOTP) is a client/server protocol that configures a diskless computer or a computer that is booted for the first time. BOOTP provides the IP address, net mask, the address of a default router, and the address of a name server. The topics discussed in this section include: Operation Packet Format TCP/IP Protocol Suite Figure Client and server on the same network TCP/IP Protocol Suite Figure Client and server on two different networks TCP/IP Protocol Suite Figure Use of UDP ports TCP/IP Protocol Suite Figure BOOTP packet format TCP/IP Protocol Suite Figure Option format TCP/IP Protocol Suite Table Options for BOOTP TCP/IP Protocol Suite DHCP The Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) provides static and dynamic address allocation that can be manual or automatic. The topics discussed in this section include: Static Address Allocation Dynamic Address Allocation Manual and Automatic Configuration Packet Format Transition States Exchanging Messages TCP/IP Protocol Suite DHCP provides static and dynamic address allocation that can be manual or automatic.
