    <p>The four-step process for DHCP client involves DHCPDiscover, DHCPOffer, DHCPRequest, and DHCPACK. When a device connects to a network, it broadcasts a DHCPDiscover to look for available DHCP Servers. When a DHCP server sees the DHCPDiscover message, it responds directly to the sender using Unicast with IP address information in DHCPOffer. The client will receive the Unicast message and respond to the DHCP server with a broadcast DHCPRequest message if it accepts the offer. Finally, the DHCP server responds to the DHCPRequest broadcast with a DHCP Acknowledgement, confirming the IP address assignment to the client.</p> Signup and view all the answers
