The DHCP protocol.
What is dynamically as related to a routing protocol?
Dynamically, as related to a routing protocol is a type of networking technique whereby the routing protocol creates, updates and maintains the dynamic routing table.
Which protocol is used to convert logical IP addresses to physical MAC addresses?
Address Resolution Protocol (ARP)ARP is primarily used to translate IP Addresses to Ethernet MAC Addresses.
What protocol maps layer 2 to layer 3 addresses on the TCP IP network?
RARP (Reverse Address Resolution Protocol) maps layer 2 addresses to layer 3 addresses. ARP (Address Resolution Protocol) maps layer 3 addresses to layer 2 addresses.
What is a static NAT?
static reffers to the internet protocol or I.P. , when you keep the same i.p. address all the time instead of being dynamically assigned an i.p. address from a pool of available addresses. "NAT" stands for network address translation
Which protocol is used to automatically configure network devices?
Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) A protocol that provides a means to dynamically allocate IP addresses to computers on a local area network. The system administrator assigns a range of IP addresses to DHCP and each client computer on the LAN has its TCP/IP software configured to request an IP address from the DHCP server. The request and grant process uses a lease concept with a controllable time period.
Which protocol maps known IP addresses to MAC addresses on a local network?
ARP
What protocol map ip addresses to layer 2 addresses?
ARP - Address Resolution ProtocolARP - Address Resolution ProtocolARP - Address Resolution ProtocolARP - Address Resolution Protocol
What protocol is responsible for resolving ip addresses to mac addresses for source hosts that knows ip addresses of the destination host but not the mac address?
ARP, or Address Resolution Protocol, defined by RFC 826.
How many multicast addresses can be supported by the IP protocol?
