EION Open IP Environment DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol) is a portable implementation of the Service and Relay Agent components as per RFC 2131 and RFC 2132.
DHCP Highlights and Literature
EION Open IP Environment DHCP demonstrates the following features:
- Delivers host-specific configuration parameters from a DHCP server to a host.
- Provides persistent storage of network parameters for network clients.
- Allocates network addresses to clients.
- Assigns clients with a network address for a finite lease.
- The allocated addresses whose lease has expired can be reused.
- Provides a mechanism for a client to acquire all of the IP configuration parameters that it needs in order to function.
- The server maintains a database of allocated addresses and leases, in local permanent storage.
- DHCP supports all the standard DHCP messages - DHCPDISCOVER, DHCPOFFER, DHCPREQUEST,DHCPACK, DHCPNAK, DHCPDECLINE, DHCPRELEASE, and DHCPINFORM
- DHCP uses UDP as its transport protocol.
- DHCP has a Relay Agent that communicates with the DHCP server and client.
- Provides highly portable code, which includes flexible buffer and timer management libraries.
