DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol) DORA (Discover-Offer-Request-Acknowledgement) is a process used by DHCP servers to assign dynamic IP addresses to devices on a network. The process involves four messages sent between a DHCP client and server. The messages are sent in the following order: Discover, Offer, Request, Acknowledgement. During the process, the client sends out a broadcast message (Discover) to locate available DHCP servers. The server then responds with an Offer message that contains the IP address, subnet mask, and other configuration information. The client then sends a Request message to the server, asking for the offered IP address. The server responds with an Acknowledgement message, which confirms the assignment of the IP address to the client.
