: A DHCP server on any network assigns an Internet Protocol (IP) address to each device on the network. The IP address is composed of four octets, e.g., 128.236.124.163 – the first three octets identify the network and must be the same for all equipment on the network. The last octet is assigned, uniquely, to each network device. ................
