## DHCP

Windows NT support for Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) in a RAS environment makes it possible for RAS clients to obtain Internet Protocol (IP) addresses from the same DHCP server used for the LAN environment. Previously, remote-access servers had to reserve a separate pool of IP addresses just for dial-in clients. DHCP makes very efficient use of a limited number of IP addresses and centralizes TCP/IP administration.
