The Advantages of Choosing a Dedicated DHCP Server

DHCP or Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol servers work by providing and assigning IP addresses automatically, along with default gateways as well as other network parameters to the client device in order to broadcast their queries. As the protocol sends the required elements automatically, this allows the client to communicate properly on the network without requiring the network administrator to manually configure each client in the network. In a large enterprise, manually setting up the clients joining the network can be quite cumbersome the network administrator. With the DHCP server in place, each of the clients would be assigned a unique dynamic IP address, which would change automatically when the client’s lease has expired that IP address.
Choosing a centralized, dedicated DHCP server allows you to avoid the stress of using the protocol on the network router or switch. This can be especially beneficial for big network environments, which need the support of DHCP IPv4 addresses and IPv6 addresses simultaneously. Generally, all of the DHCP server vendors would support both DHCP IPv6 and DHCP IPv4 addresses, so you can make use of the same management interface IPv4 as well as IPv6 as per your needs. Below is a quick look at the other underlying benefits of opting a dedicated DHCP server.
- With the DHCP server incorporated into your IP Address Management system, you can have a better understanding of the IPv6 or IPv4 enabled client nodes.
- It makes keeping track of the IPv4 address space simpler and helps to determine if the lease time is sufficient to manage the number of client systems joining the network.

- You can get access to customized logging and management interfaces with DCHP, which allows network administrators to manage the IP addresses easily.
- It allows you to monitor the network easily, no matter what version of the IP address is used in the establishment.
- A dedicated DHCP server would offer high availability and redundancy. This means that clients can protect their current IP addresses without interrupting the end nodes in case the server crashes.
If you were planning to migrate from IPv4 to IPv6 any time soon, you should choose a dual-protocol DHCP server to ease the move. This way, you would not have to move the DHCP IPv4 address to DHCP IPv6 or configure the network routers or switches in your establishment again to secure them on a reliable DHCP server infrastructure.
