What is Rosa process in DHCP and how it works?

The "Rosa process" in DHCP does not appear to be a recognized term within standard networking protocols. If you meant "DHCP process," it involves the dynamic allocation of IP addresses and other network configuration parameters to devices on a network. This process typically includes four stages: DHCP Discover, DHCP Offer, DHCP Request, and DHCP Acknowledge (DORA), allowing clients to request and receive IP addresses from a DHCP server effectively. If "Rosa process" refers to something specific outside standard DHCP terminology, please provide more context for clarification.
