DHCP server for Windows 10

Reading time: 1 – 2 minutes

This is a super useful and simple tool, first of all, let me say thanks to Dani because I found the tool thanks to him. Very often I have the requirement to set up small virtual, real or hybrid networks using my laptop as a server and I had to boot a VM for getting a DHCP server simple to manage and powerful. Now, this is not required anymore because thanks to this tool I found a super small and flexible tool, I can set up all that I need using an INI file or just a wizard. It’s a pleasure and I don’t have to install anything if I don’t want, just a tray icon application is running for allowing me to give the service to my experimental networks.

Those projects that gain my commitment in a second: DHCP Server for Windows
