DHCP Scopes
DHCP automatically assigns IP configurations to clients.
- Scope: A range of valid IP addresses available for lease to clients on a specific subnet (e.g., 192.168.1.100 to 192.168.1.200).
- Lease: The length of time a client keeps an IP address before it must renew it.
- Reservation: Ensuring a specific device (identified by its MAC address) always gets the exact same IP address from the DHCP server. Useful for printers.
