B Correct answer
Explanation

DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol) is used to configure network devices to communicate on an IP network. A DHCP client uses the DHCP protocol to acquire configuration information such as an IP address, a default root and one or more DNS server addresses from a DHCP server. The DHCP client then uses this information to configure its host. Once the configuration process is complete, the host is able to communicate on the internet.
