DORA 

is the Process that is used by DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol). It is used


for providing the IP Address to the clients/host machine. It has four main stages and it obtains
the IP Address from the centralized server.

D - Discover

O - Offer

R - Request

A - Acknowledge
Source IP: DHCP Server IP Address
Destination IP: 255.255.255.255
Source MAC: DHCP Server Machine MAC Address
Destination MAC: DHCP client MAC Address.
 

This is how DORA Works and the Host gets the IP Address from the Server.
