How do I setup a DHCP server for my local area network (LAN) using Debian Linux 6 or Ubuntu Linux server running on my IBM hardware?

The Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) allows clients such as desktop, laptop, and mobile devices to request and obtain an IP address and many other parameters from a server.

ISC’s DHCP software is the most widely used open source DHCP implementation on the Internet. The same software can be used for LAN too. It is a carrier and enterprise grade solution to your host configuration needs.
