Answer:

B) DHCP

Step-by-step explanation:

The Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol known as DHCP helps in the automatic assignment of IP addresses to computers (and other hosts) on a network. When a computer network has increased beyond a few computers, the process of manually configuring IP addreses becomes inefficient, as such a network managment protocol like the DHCP is utilized to automatically assign IP addreses and carryout other network configurations to enable communication among hosts in the network.
