+# Dynamic Host Control Protocol (DHCP)
+Address allocation can happen trough 2 ways.
+
+Fixed allocation:
+ - Wasteful because if a hosts is not active the IP Address is still allocated.
+
+Dynamic allocation:
+- A DHCP server manages the allocation of IP Addresses and leases them for a certain amount of time.
+
+Dynamic allocation works like this:
+1. A host broadcasts a request for an IP Address.
+2. A DHCP server replies with a offer for an IP Address.
+3. The host replies accepting the offer.
+4. Server confirms the allocation of the IP Address.
