Objectives
• Discuss the basics of Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP)
• Describe the components and processes of DHCP

Basics of DHCP
• DHCP – Layer 4 protocol that uses User Datagram Protocol
(UDP) datagrams for communication– Defined by Request for Comment (RFC) 2131– Clients use UDP port 68 to send and receive DHCP
broadcast communication– Servers use UDP port 67 to send and receive DHCP
broadcast communication

Exploring DHCP Components and Processes
• DHCP lease – Defines the amount of time, or the duration, that an IP
address is loaned to a DHCP client
• Lease duration – Amount of time a client keeps an IP address before
releasing it
• DHCP scope– A range of IP addresses and related configuration
information available by request from a DHCP client

Exploring DHCP Components and Processes (continued)
• DHCP options– IP address– Subnet mask– Default gateway– Primary and secondary DNS servers– DHCP lease expiration
• DHCP reservations– Allow you to assign a specific IP address to a DHCP
client without statically configuring the device with IP information

DHCP Communication Processes
• DHCP message types– DHCPDiscover, DHCPOffer– DHCPRequest, DHCPAck– DHCPNack, DHCPDecline
• Initial lease request– Clients make these requests if they do not have a
current lease on a scope
• Lease renewals– Intervals: Renewal time value and Binding time value
MCTS Guide to Microsoft Windows Server 2008 Network Infrastructure Configuration
11MCTS Guide to Microsoft Windows Server 2008 Network Infrastructure Configuration
12
DHCP Communication Processes (continued)
• Changing subnets– When a client moves to a new subnet, it cannot use
its current lease because the IP information does match the new network configuration

14
Using DHCPv6
• IPv6 clients– Use DHCP to receive IP address and configuration
information from an IPv6 router on their network
• Implementing DHCPv6 requires – Configuring your router to forward all
autoconfiguration requests to an available DHCPv6 server
– Disabling stateless mode on your Windows Server 2008 DHCP servers
MCTS Guide to Microsoft Windows Server 2008 Network Infrastructure Configuration
Installing DHCP in a Windows Server 2008 Environment
• DHCP Server role – Requires minimal server resources– Starts the DHCP Server service– Installs the files needed for the DHCP database– Initializes the DHCP console on the local system

Authorizing DHCP
• In Active Directory domains– DHCP servers must be authorized before they can
begin supplying IP addresses
• In Windows Server 2008– You are prompted for credentials during installation if
your server is a member of a domain
MCTS Guide to Microsoft Windows Server 2008 Network Infrastructure Configuration

DHCP Client Configuration
• DHCP Client service – Responsible for the DHCP configuration process on a
client machine
• Fault tolerance and DHCP– Microsoft recommends using an 80/20 rule for splitting
scopes between two servers for fault tolerance– 80/20 rule
• 80 percent of a scope’s total IP range is hosted on your primary DHCP server, while the remaining 20 percent is hosted on your secondary DHCP server

net start “DHCP Server” or “DHCP Client”
46MCTS Guide to Microsoft Windows Server 2008 Network Infrastructure Configuration
Troubleshooting DHCP Clients: IPconfig
• ipconfig – Can be used to renew the current IP address and
configuration information and to release the current IP address
• Entering the ipconfig /release command– Issues the DHCPRelease message to the server
currently holding the IP address lease for a client

Summary
• Information provided by a DHCP server includes: – Leases, scopes, and options
• For DHCP to function properly in a routed network: – A DHCP relay agent or an RFC 1542–compliant
router needs to be in place to pass along DHCP messages
• DHCP – Uses a standard set of messages for communicating
between DHCP clients and DHCP servers
MCTS Guide to Microsoft Windows Server 2008 Network Infrastructure Configuration
51
Summary (continued)
• Common communication processes – Initial lease requests, lease renewals, and changing
subnet renewals
• All data in DHCP is stored in the DHCP database
• Only DHCP servers in an Active Directory domain need to be authorized
• After DHCP is installed– You must configure scopes for DHCP clients to
receive addresses
MCTS Guide to Microsoft Windows Server 2008 Network Infrastructure Configuration
Summary (continued)
• DHCP console or netsh – Can be used to perform all configuration tasks
• DHCP – Uses exclusions to prevent making the IP addresses
of statically assigned devices available in an IP scope range
• To monitor DHCP– Use Performance Monitor, DHCP statistics, and the
DHCP audit log
