DHCP is responsive. DHCP is administratively friendly because it reduces the work necessary to administer a large IP network. DHCP provides for the recovery and reallocation of idle IPs through its leasing mechanism. Unregistered clients configured for DHCP still have access to the network. Registered roaming DHCP clients will work from any subnet without their owners having to reconfigure their network settings.
Authorized administrators can modify address space and nameservice themselves.
Consult with your computing support staff for more information regarding this service. Some useful tools and reports are available from our registration site . Not only can you register a new host by supplying machine and contact information but you can also query these records, edit these records, and add WINS service options. Mobile users can view what subnets are configured for DHCP while departmental administrators can review active and abandoned leases per subnet. We have developed a web interface tool which will soon allow for users with administrative privileges to maintain the lists of subadministrators themselves.
