1. DHCP Server - This server sits around and waits for DHCP clients to make requests for
IP addresses. The server is defined with one or more scopes or ranges of IP addresses.
2. DHCP Scope - Scopes determine which IP addresses are allocated to the clients. You
must define and activate a scope before DHCP clients can use the DHCP server for
dynamic TCP/IP configuration. You can configure as many scopes on a DHCP server as
needed for your network environment.
3. WINS - Resolves Windows network computer names (also known as NetBIOS names) to
Internet IP addresses. It allows Windows computers on a network to easily find and
communicate with each other.
