DHCP
Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol - client/server protocol for dynamically
allocating IP addresses and network parameters. The IP addresses are
requested by the DHCP clients (PCs in the network) on the DHCP server
(for example, a router or the Internet service provider). The DHCP server
takes these IP addresses from a set address pool and sends them to the
client. In addition, the client receives additional information (for example, the
addresses for the standard gateway and DNS server).
The IP address is temporarily allocated for a certain amount of time. If the
address is no longer required by the client, the server has access to it again
and can allocate it to another client.

DiffServ
Differentiated Services Flag - flag evaluated by active network components
