Correct answer: Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol
Option D is correct because DHCP stands for Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol, the standard protocol that automatically assigns IP addresses and other network configuration parameters to devices on a network. Option A is wrong because there is no such protocol as Dynamic Host Cache Protocol. Option B is wrong because Domain Host Control Protocol is not a real protocol. Option C is wrong because Distributed Host Configuration Protocol is a fabricated name and does not correspond to any networking standard.
