DHCP

Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) is a standardized protocol that enables clients to be dynamically assigned with various configuration parameters, such as an IP address, subnet mask, default gateway, and other critical network configuration information. DHCP servers centrally manage such configuration data, and are configured by network administrators with settings that are appropriate for a given network environment. DHCP servers in turn communicate with DHCP clients through the use of DHCP messages.

There must be DHCP sever in the network when the DHCP function apply to our fingerprint machine, when the fingerprint machine is connected into network as DHCP client, which will broadcast a message for all local network, after the DHCP sever receive the request and assign a dynamic IP address and DNS according the actual statue in the network.

For the fingerprint machine with this function provided, enter menu-> option àcomm. optionàDHCP, and set the item as “Y”, the fingerprint machine will send a request to DHCP sever to ask for IP address when the fingerprint machine connect to network, otherwise this item set as “N” , the fingerprint will not send the request.
