I'm reasonably sure of what I've observed but that has proven wrong in
the past so ...l.
Environment: Win XP Home, Local lan connected to Linksys Router which
has DHCP function.
Observation: When I configure my system to automatically obtain an IP
address, DHCP is activated. ZoneAlarm shows a lot of outbound
activity being blocked, all UDP. When I configure my sysstem with
static IP address, DHCP is not acitive and ZoneAlarm shows no outbound
traffic being blocked.
It seems there is a small processing price to pay for the slightly
easier manner of Lan configuration.
Am I correct in my observation? Any thoughts?
Thanks
