The term DORA best describes how DHCP Works:
:*<u>'''D'''</u>iscovery:
:::The client broadcasts a message (IP lease request) on a sub-network to detect available DHCP servers
:*<u>'''O'''</u>ffer:
:::The DHCP server receives the request from the client, reserves an IP ADDRESS for the client and sends a DHCPOFFER
:*<u>'''R'''</u>equest:
:::The DHCP server broadcasts a message request for acceptance, but also notifies other DHCP server
:*<u>'''A'''</u>cknowledgement:
:::The client sends a message of acceptance to the server. In turn, the client receives from the server a packet of information containing the lease duration and other configuration information
