dynamic host configuration protocol (DHCP) server
DHCP
Any kind of home network.
Network layer
DHCP is Dynamic Host Configuration Protocal. It assings IP addresses to the needed computers in a network dynamically. DNS is Domain Naming System(Service) It is system for naming computers and network services that is organized into a hierarchy of domains. DNS naming is used in TCP/IP networks, such as Internet, to locate computers and services through user friendly names.
Prohibited on DoD computers or networks
That is because it was designed that way. A few big networks, a larger amount of medium-sized networks, and a lot of small networks.
internet is a collection of inter-related computers,where as computer networks is a collection of automated(independent) computers.
With DHCP it's easier to control large networks, especially when a number of computers changes. It's not easy to track information about IP addresses if you have more then 10 computers, if you have more than hundred it's just nightmare. DHCP takes care of.
First octet rule for each class:Class A: 0xxxxxxxClass B: 10xxxxxxClass C: 110xxxxxClass A range is 0 - 1270.0.0.0 and 127.0.0.0 are not "routable" IP addresses. One defines all networks and the other is the loopback. We have a total of 126 usable networks and 16,777,214 usable hostaddresses per network. There are even less if we don't count the private address of 10.0.0.0 (RFC 1918).Class B range is 128 - 191There are 16,384 total networks in this class; that's including the private addresses of 172.16.0.0 - 172.31.0.0 (RFC 1918). There are a total of 65,534 usable host addresses per network.Class C range is 192 - 223There are 2,097,152 total networks in this class; that's including the private addresses of 192.168.0.0 - 192.168.255.0 (RFC 1918). There are 254 usable hosts addresses per network.
Yes, networks do allow several computers to use the same printer.
