Where to Find More Information
Request for Comments (RFC) documents provide an overview of a protocol or service and
details about how the protocol should behave. If you are a novice server administrator, you’ll
probably find some of the background information in an RFC helpful. If you are an
experienced server administrator, you can find all the technical details about a protocol in its
RFC document. You can search for RFC documents by number at this Web site:
www.faqs.org/rfcs
For details about DHCP, see RFC 2131.
