Study Notes

DHCP Allocation Methods

Fixed allocation: assigns a specific IP address to a device based on its MAC address, ensuring the same IP address is always allocated to the device.
Dynamic allocation: assigns IP addresses from a pool for a limited time or until the device releases it, allowing for reuse of addresses as devices connect and disconnect.
Automatic allocation: permanently assigns an IP address to a device when it first connects, with the address remaining the same even after reboots.
