DHCP stands for Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol. It is protocol responsible for configuring the IP address and other TCP/IP settings on network computers. There is no scenario in which DHCP servers also be active DHCP clients. They should never be both a DHCP server and DHCP client. The two sides (client and server) should be always separated.
