In my previous article, I discussed elaborately how to configure a MikroTik RouterOS v7 first time and in this article I am going to show how to configure a DHCP Server in MikroTik RouterOS v7.ĭHCP Service is built-in in MikroTik RouterOS v7 but not enabled by default. So, system admin can easily turn MikroTik RouterOS into a DHCP server and can easily reduce his network administration task. So, a DHCP server reduces huge network administration tasks of a system administrator.Įvery MikroTik RouterOS including RouterOS v7 has a built-in DHCP service. In a network, a DHCP client (IP devices such as Desktop, Laptop, Smartphone etc.) requests for an IP lease sending broadcast message over 67/UDP port to any DHCP server and a DHCP server responses over 68/UDP allocating IP address and other related IP information for a certain period. DHCP server and client use UDP port 67 and 68 for communication. Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) is a client/server protocol where a DHCP server automatically provides an Internet Protocol (IP) address and other related information such as subnet mask, default gateway and DNS to DHCP clients.
