IP addressing

DHCP (dynamic host configuration protocol)

For Automatic IP address assignment. DHCP server
provides the all-in-one with an IP address. Generally
requires no user intervention for all-in-one to obtain IP
address from a DHCP server.

BOOTP (bootstrap protocol)

For Automatic IP address assignment. BOOTP server
provides the all-in-one with an IP address. Requires
administrator to input the all-in-one MAC hardware address
on BOOTP server in order for all-in-one to obtain an IP
address from that server.

Auto IP

For Automatic IP address assignment. If neither a DHCP
server nor a BOOTP server is present, this service allows
the all-in-one to generate a unique IP address.
