Which term refers to a network service that automatically assigns IP addresses and other TCP/IP configuration information?
Correct Answer:
DHCP
Explanation:
DHCP is the network service that automatically assigns IP addresses and other TCP/IP configuration information to devices on a network. When a client connects, it requests configuration, and a DHCP server responds with an IP address, subnet mask, default gateway, and often DNS server addresses. The server leases the address for a period, allowing the same network to reuse addresses as devices join and leave, which prevents manual setup and IP conflicts. DNS handles translating domain names to IP addresses, ISP is the internet service provider, and hardware refers to the physical devices themselves.
