Which networking protocol is used to assign IP addresses dynamically to devices on a network?

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: D

Explanation

The correct answer is option 4 i.e. DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol).

 

  • The networking protocol used to assign IP addresses dynamically to devices on a network is called the Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP).
  • DHCP enables devices to obtain IP addresses, subnet masks, default gateways, and other network configuration parameters automatically from a DHCP server.
  • This allows for efficient management of IP addresses within a network and simplifies the process of connecting devices to the network.
