Client Requirements

A Microsoft TCP/IP DHCP client can be any of the following Microsoft TCP/IP clients:

Windows NT server 3.5 or later that is not a DHCP server
Windows NT Workstation 3.5 or later
Windows 95
Windows for Workgroups 3.11 running the Microsoft TCP/IP-32 software from the Windows NT Server CD-ROM
Microsoft Network Client for MS-DOS 3.0 from the Windows NT Server CD-ROM
LAN Manager server for MS-DOS 2.2c from the Windows NT server CD-ROM

If some clients on the network do not use DHCP for IP address configuration—because they do not support DHCP or otherwise need to have TCP/IP manually configured—the IP addresses of these non-DHCP clients must not be made available for lease to the DHCP clients. Non-DHCP clients can include clients that do not support Microsoft DHCP (see the preceding list), and clients that must always use the same IP address, such as Windows Internet Name Service (WINS) servers, Domain Name Service (DNS) servers, and other DHCP servers.

You should not assign the addresses of servers (file and print, DNS, WINS, and so forth) by DHCP as the address could change. If you do you have to reconfigure the scope options every time one of these servers restarts.

Although you can use DHCP Manager to reserve an IP address for use by only a specific WINS or DNS server, this technique is not recommended. If a DHCP server with the proper address for these servers is not available on the network for some reason, the client is not assigned an IP address and cannot initialize TCP/IP.

WINS servers, DNS servers, DHCP servers, multihomed IP routers, and any other computer that has its IP address specified in another host’s TCP/IP configuration should have a static IP address. This method ensures that they always use the same IP address and that they can initialize even if the DHCP server is down.

The DHCP client must have DHCP enabled. For Windows NT and Windows 95, DHCP is enabled in the TCP/IP configuration dialog box by selecting “Obtain address automatically.”
