Explanation: The Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) server uses this mode to dynamically assign IP addresses to devices from a pool of addresses that have been specified. Whenever a device establishes a connection to the network, it sends a request to the DHCP server for an IP address. The server then provides the device with a temporary IP address that is accessible for usage. In this mode, the DHCP server provides particular IP addresses to devices based on their MAC addresses. This mode is also known as DHCP reservation static allocation or just DHCP. Every single device is set up with a reserved Internet Protocol (IP) address, which guarantees that it will automatically get the same IP address whenever it connects to the network.
