Explanation

DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol) automatically assigns IP addresses and other network configuration parameters (subnet mask, default gateway, DNS server) to devices on a network. It is the standard service used for IP address allocation in enterprise environments, eliminating the need to manually configure each device. DNS translates domain names to IP addresses. Syslog is a logging protocol. Telnet is a legacy remote access protocol. None of the other three allocate IP addresses.
