DHCP is a standardized protocol that enables clients to be dynamically assigned with various configuration parameters, such as an IP address, subnet mask, Default Gateway, and other critical network configuration information.
DHCP server services are provided with Microsoft server operating systems, however due to availability of various network devices, such as, for example, network IP cameras or virtual machines, DHCP server capabilities are also useful on workstation systems.
Alax.Info DHCP Server will run on workstation (2000 Professional, XP Professional, Vista) and server Windows operating systems starting from Windows 2000. Once DHCP Server receives a requires from remote network entity, it allocates an IP address from preselected addresss range and optionally notifies on the action through system tray notification.
