Explanation

DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol) servers dynamically assign network configuration to clients. The two correct answers are: B) Leases - DHCP assigns IP addresses as time-limited leases rather than permanent assignments, allowing the server to reclaim and reuse addresses; and E) Suffixes - DHCP can provide DNS domain suffixes (e.g., 'company.local'), which are appended to unqualified hostnames to enable name resolution. The other options are distractors: Encryption (A) is handled by protocols like WPA/TLS, not DHCP; SSID (C) and Channels (D) are wireless LAN parameters configured on access points; and VLAN assignments (F) are a switch-level configuration, not a standard DHCP-provided parameter.
