Many people use DHCP servers that they own or rent, every day, without ever realizing they have them. The most common DHCP servers on the planet are located inside of those small home routers, either purchased or leased from an ISP. Those private network "192.168.x.y" addresses that are assigned to all the devices in one's home are provided by a local DHCP server on premises.
However, none of these turn-key devices provide advanced DHCP features such as
filename or
next-server. For that, you have to disable the DHCP server in the router/gateway and provide a separate DHCP server yourself
