Abstract

The method of dynamically assigned addresses is an alternative to the traditional method of preassigned addresses. The dynamic approach requires protocols for assigning/unassigning addresses, along with some kind of mechanism which distributes information about assigned/unassigned addresses to network stations and manages sessions between stations. In the present work we investigate the second issue in relation to broadcast networks, present a possible model for address distribution, define the properties required for correct operation and prove that our proposed protocol fulfills these properties.
