DHCP Server

The Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) is an auto configuration protocol used on IP networks. Computers that are connected to IP networks must be configured before they can communicate with other computers on the network. DHCP allows a computer to be configured automatically, eliminating the need for intervention by a network administrator. It also provides a central database for keeping track of computers that have been connected to the network. This prevents two computers from accidentally being configured with the same IP address.

 Note

• DHCP Server works when the traffic capture is running.
• DHCP Server listens to all network interfaces except public network adapter and network adapters configured for obtaining IP address dynamically.
• If your PC has third-party DHCP Server, it may conflict with built-in DHCP Server in TMeter.
• DHCP Client must be configured to receive IP address from DHCP Server.
