Which of the following protocols assign(s) dynamic IP? i) POP ii) DHCP iii) BOOTP iv) SNMP v) ICMP
Answer: B
The protocols that assign dynamic IP addresses are DHCP and BOOTP, so ii and iii only. DHCP hands out addresses to hosts from a pool, and BOOTP is the older protocol that does a similar job. POP is used to retrieve mail from a server, SNMP is used for network management and ICMP carries error and control messages, so none of those three assigns an IP address. DHCP runs on a server that leases an address to each host for a period, and BOOTP is its predecessor that can assign an address from a table.
