Virtually every network in existence is an IP-based network, and
to utilize that network, devices need IP addresses and other
critical IP-based information. This information is typically
obtained in a dynamic nature via the Dynamic Host
Configuration Protocol (DHCP). This course will introduce you
to DHCP, its operation, and how to verify its functionality on
client devices. You’ll also be given an overview of the Domain
Name Service (DNS) which is critical for allowing web browsing
as well as the Network Time Protocol which is used to
synchronize time-and-date information between network
devices and servers.
