Explanation (?): |
The DHCP Client service is used in negotiating with a DHCP Server the IP address that should be assigned to a machine. If set to a static address the client service will ask the DHCP server to register or manually do it if the server does not know how. If set to dynamic the client server will request an IP address and negotiate the responsibility for updating the DNS records with the server. This service is very important and should not be set to disabled unless you are using a protocol that does not require it. If set to manual the service will activate if is required. |

"Man is the only animal that deals in that atrocity of atrocities, War. He is the only one that gathers his brethren about him and goes forth in cold blood and calm pulse to exterminate his kind. He is the only animal that for sordid wages will march out... and help to slaughter strangers of his own species who have done him no harm and with whom he has no quarrel.... And in the intervals between campaigns he washes the blood off his hands and works for 'the universal brotherhood of man' - with his mouth". --Mark Twain
