DHCP is a protocol for dynamically assigning IP addresses to Internet Fax and client PCs. With DHCP, an Internet Fax can
automatically acquire a unique IP address each time it connects to a network making IP address management an easier task
for network administrators. When an Internet Fax logs on to the network, the DHCP server selects an IP address from a master
list and assigns it to the system.
