  2. Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dynamic_Host_Configuration...

    The Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) is a network management protocol used on Internet Protocol (IP) networks for automatically assigning IP addresses and other communication parameters to devices connected to the network using a client–server architecture.

  3. Zero-configuration networking - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zero-configuration_networking

    Zero-configuration networking (zeroconf) is a set of technologies that automatically creates a usable computer network based on the Internet Protocol Suite (TCP/IP) when computers or network peripherals are interconnected. It does not require manual operator intervention or special configuration servers.

  4. DHCPv6 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DHCPv6

    The Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol version 6 (DHCPv6) is a network protocol for configuring Internet Protocol version 6 (IPv6) hosts with IP addresses, IP prefixes, default route, local segment MTU, and other configuration data required to operate in an IPv6 network.

  5. Link-local address - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Link-local_address

    [1]: 1.9 Therefore, hosts search for a DHCP server on the network before assigning link-local addresses. In the automatic address configuration process, network hosts select a random candidate address within the reserved range and use Address Resolution Protocol (ARP) probes to ascertain that the address is not in use on the network. If a reply ...

  6. NetworkManager - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/NetworkManager

    On Linux and all Unix-like operating systems, the utilities ifconfig and the newer ip (from the iproute2-bundle) are used to configure IEEE 802.3 and IEEE 802.11 hardware. These utilities configure the kernel directly and the configuration is applied immediately. After boot-up, the user is required to configure them again.

  7. Internet Connection Sharing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Internet_Connection_Sharing

    On Windows XP, the server, by default, gets the IP address 192.168.0.1. (This default can be changed within the interface settings of the network adapter or in the Windows Registry.) It provides NAT services to the entire 192.168.0.x subnet, even if the address on the client was set manually, not by the DHCP server.

  8. UDP Helper Address - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/UDP_Helper_Address

    To enable the forwarding of User Datagram Protocol (UDP) broadcasts, including BOOTP, received on an interface, use the ip helper-address command in interface configuration mode. To disable the forwarding of broadcast packets to specific addresses, use the no form of this command.

  9. Prefix delegation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Prefix_delegation

    In the typical case of a home network, for example, the home router uses DHCPv6 to request a network prefix from the ISP's DHCPv6 server. Once assigned, the ISP routes this network to the customer's home router and the home router starts advertising the new address space to hosts on the network, either via SLAAC or using DHCPv6.
