What is the reason that an ISP commonly assigns a DHCP address to a wireless router in a SOHO environment?
- better connectivity
- better network performance
- easy IP address management
- easy configuration on ISP firewall
Answers Explanation & Hints: In a SOHO environment, a wireless router connects to the ISP via a DSL or cable modem. The IP address between the wireless router and ISP site is typically assigned by the ISP through DHCP. This method facilitates the IP addressing management in that IP addresses for clients are dynamically assigned so that if a client is dropped, the assigned IP address can be easily reassigned to another client.
