The Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) is a network protocol used to assign IP addresses and provide configuration information to devices such as servers, desktops, or mobile devices, so they can communicate on a network using the Internet Protocol (IP).
Starting with Artica 4.30 with Service Pack 208,219 or 4.40, Artica allows you to create a Quick DHCP service using the Network interface section.
