Ques : What is Dynamic host configuration protocol

Ans :

Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) is a network management
protocol. For a network with large number of IP based systems (Systems
assigned an IP address) it is almost impractical to assign IP addresses
manually. To automate this process Dynamic Host Configuration protocol was
designed. DHCP server dynamically assigns an IP address and other network
configuration parameters (like: default gateway, subnet mask, DNS server IP
etc) to each device on a network.
