Values Description
DHCP
This protocol is an extension to BOOTP and permits FCD-IPM to
supply not only an IP address but also additional parameters, such as
Default Gateway, DNS server addresses etc. FCD-IPM supplies these
parameters to the client's workstation. In contrast to BOOTP, DHCP
supplies these parameters on a temporary basis. FCD-IPM using DHCP
checks on the workstation periodically. If the workstation is not using
the IP address, the IP address can be supplied to other workstations
later.
FCD-IPM supports all these mechanisms simultaneously.
IP Address Pool
