Configuring DHCP: From Router Setup to Device Connectivity

This task required a step-by-step explanation of how Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) is configured and executed on a wireless router, specifically for connecting three PCs. I approached it by first explaining the theory behind DHCP, including the router acting as a DHCP server and the clients (PCs) requesting and receiving IP addresses automatically. I then mapped out the full execution process—starting with physical connection, wireless network setup, router configuration via its web interface, DHCP scope settings, and final client configuration to obtain IPs automatically. To ensure clarity, I also included practical implications of DHCP such as ease of use, reduced IP conflicts, and centralized management. The explanation was structured to blend both theoretical understanding and real-world application.
