Explanation

DHCP automatically assigns four key network settings to clients: IP address, subnet mask, default gateway, and DNS server. When DHCP is disabled, these must be configured manually as static entries. The gateway IP address tells the workstation where to send traffic destined for other networks (i.e., the router), and the DNS server IP address allows the workstation to resolve domain names to IPs. HOSTS file entries, HIPS (Host Intrusion Prevention System) server addresses, and proxy server addresses are not part of standard DHCP-assigned configuration.
