other TCP/IP-based network devices with IP

dynamic host configuration protocol (DHCP) server
The DHCP 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.
Address Resolution Protocol (ARP)ARP is primarily used to translate IP Addresses to Ethernet MAC Addresses.
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.
When two hosts have the same IP address on a network, it can lead to an IP address conflict, causing connectivity issues for both devices. The Address Resolution Protocol (ARP) is often involved in detecting these conflicts, as it maps IP addresses to MAC addresses. Network administrators typically resolve the conflict by reconfiguring one of the devices to use a unique IP address. Additionally, Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) can help prevent such conflicts by dynamically assigning unique IP addresses to devices on a network.
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
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.

ARP, or Address Resolution Protocol, defined by RFC 826.
A DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol) range refers to the set of IP addresses that a DHCP server can assign to devices on a network. This range is defined by a starting and ending IP address, allowing the server to dynamically allocate addresses to devices as they join the network. The DHCP server manages this range to ensure that IP addresses are assigned efficiently and without conflict, facilitating seamless network connectivity for devices.
