Install and configure DHCP

LEARNING OBJECTIVES:
After reading this INFORMATION SHEET, STUDENT(S) MUST be able
to:
1. Understand DHCP concepts.
2. Install and configure DHCP.

INTRODUCTION
If you have worked with Windows NT at all, you are probably familiar
with Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) — a server service
that enables the server to dynamically assign IP addresses to network
clients. Because Windows 2008 R2 server networking has TCP/IP as its
foundation, DHCP also plays an important role in networks.
DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol) is a server service that
dynamically assigns, or leases, IP addresses and related IP information to
network clients.
How does DHCP work?
1. During the boot process, a client computer that is configured as
a DHCP client sends out a broadcast packet called
DHCPDISCOVER.
This Discover packet contains the client’s computer name and
Media Access Control (MAC) address so the DHCP servers can
respond to it. Basically, the Discover packet says, “I’m looking for
a DHCP server who can lease an IP address.”
2. DHCP servers on the network respond to the broadcast with a
DHCPOFFER. In essence, the DHCPOFFER says, “I am a DHCP
server and I have a lease for you.” If several DHCP servers respond
to the request, the client accepts the first offer that it receives.
3. The client responds via a broadcast message called a
DHCPREQUEST. This message basically says, “I accept your lease
offer and would like an IP address.” If other DHCP servers made

offers, they also see their lease offers were not accepted by the
broadcast message, so they rescind their offers. (They must not
like getting snubbed by a client computer.)

 4. The DHCP server whose offer was accepted responds with a
DHCPACK message, which acknowledges the lease acceptance
and contains the client’s IP address lease as well as other IP
addressing information that you configure the server to provide.
The client is now a TCP/IP client and can participate on the
network.
Important DHCP Terms

A full range of IP addresses that can be leased from a

Scope particular DHCP server.

A grouping of scopes used to support logical IP subnets

Superscope that exist on one physical IP subnet (called a multinet).

A scope that contains multicast IP addresses, which

Multicast treat multicast clients as a group. Multicast is an
extension of DHCP and uses a multicast address range
Scope of 224.0.0.0 to 239.255.255.255.

Address Pool The IP addresses in a scope that are available for lease.
A group of IP address in the scope that are excluded
Exclusion from leasing. Excluded addresses are normally used to
give hardware devices, such as routers, a static IP
Range address.

Reservation A means for assigning a permanent IP address to a
particular client, server, or hardware device.
Reservations are typically made for servers or hardware
devices that need a static IP address.

Installing Windows Server 2008 DHCP Server

Installing Windows Server 2008 DCHP Server is easy.
To do this, you will need a Windows Server 2008 R2 system already
installed and configured with a static IP address. You will need to know
your network’s IP address range, the range of IP addresses you will want
to hand out to your PC clients, your DNS server IP addresses, and your
default gateway. Additionally, you will want to have a plan for all subnets
involved, what scopes you will want to define, and what exclusions you
will want to create.

adapters you need to select the network connection that you are going
to bind. In this example, I only have one network connection.

to specify the name of the parent domain that clients will use for
name resolution. This domain will use for all scope you create on this
DHCP server. In this example I used itsmeismael.com for parent
domain.
In prefer DNS server IPv4 address, you must to specify the address of
the DNS server that client will use for name resolution. In this case I
used 192.168.1.50 because this is my server address. In short it is the
address of your server. Click validate then press next button.
