DHCP
A Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol server dynamically
assigns IP addresses to client hosts on an IP network. DHCP
eliminates the need to manually assign static IP addresses by
“leasing” an IP address and subnet mask to each client. It

A DHCP server at the system headend assigns a public IP
address to a router.
Routers contain a built-in DHCP server that assigns private IP
addresses to clients.

DeMilitarized Zone. This service opens one IP address to the
Internet, usually for online gaming, and acts as a buffer between

Internetname.com to IP addresses such as 192.169.9.1. When
you access the world-wide web, a DNS server translates the URL
