DHCP (DHCP setting)
DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol) is the protocol that
assigns the information required to establish a network connection when
a host attempts to connect to the network (Internet). This information
includes the IP address of the local node and the default router (the
router in the host's own network system) and the DNS (Domain Name
System) server. DHCP is an extension of the BOOTP (Bootstrap) startup
protocol.

IP Address (IP address setting)
An IP address is the address of a network device such as a computer
and is included in IP packets as needed for the sending and receiving of
Internet data (IP packets). (IP addresses can be either destination
addresses or source addresses.)
Specifically, an IP address is a bit string consisting of a host address (or
host section) that identifies a computer (host) connected to the Internet
and a network address (or network section) that identifies the network to
which that computer belongs (or more specifically, the computer's
network interface). Bit strings (IP addresses) that are unique throughout
the entire Internet system are allocated to each computer or interface.
The IP addresses currently used on the Internet (IPv4) have a fixed
length of 32 bits.
