How Clients Acquire IP Addresses

How Clients Acquire IP Addresses
When you configure a Windows client operating system to use the DHCP service, upon startup the client will use an ARP broadcast in its subnet to request IP configuration from any DHCP server that may receive the request. Because DHCP uses broadcasts to initiate communications, DHCP servers are limited to communication within their IP subnets.
DHCP Leases
DHCP allocates IP addresses on a dynamic basis. This is known as a lease. You can configure the duration of the lease. The default lease time for wired clients is eight days. When the DHCP lease has reached 50 percent of the lease time, the client attempts to renew the lease.
DHCP Server Authorization
If the server is a domain member, you must authorize the Windows Server 2012 DHCP server role in Active Directory Domain Services (AD DS) before it can begin leasing IP addresses. You must be an Enterprise Administrator to authorize the DHCP server. Stand-alone Microsoft servers verify whether there is a DHCP server on the network, and do not start the DHCP service if this is the case
