Understanding DHCP Snooping
DHCP is widely used in LAN environments to dynamically assign host IP addresses from a centralized 
server, which significantly reduces the overhead of administration of IP addresses. DHCP also helps 
conserve the limited IP address space because IP addresses no longer need to be permanently assigned 
to hosts; only those hosts that are connected to the network consume IP addresses.
