RARP help the PC to find its MAC address in the same network from the RARP Server.RARP Serveronly providethe IP adress to the PC by remembering its MAC.
DHCP works on the same way but DHCP Server provide the PC its IP address, Subnetmask, Default Gateway and DNS Server etc...
So the big difference is DHCP provide more information than your RARP Server.

What protocols have made rarp largely unnecessary on modern tcp ip networks?
BOOTP, and eventually DHCP, replaced RARP. Both BOOTP and DHCP offer a more robust, flexible method of assigning IP addresses.

Difference between arp protocol and rarp protocol?
ARP (Address Resolution Protocol) is used resolve known IP Address to the Machines MAC Address (Layer 2 - OSI Layer). Whereas RARP is used to resolve IP Adresses from know layer 2 address.ARP is still used while RARP has been replaced with DHCP.
22 what is the difference between bootp and rarp?
Reverse Address Resolution Protocol, obsoleted by BootP and DHCP, allows a computer to obtain an IP address after it has obtained an ethernet address. Bootstrap Protocol allows a computer to obtain an IP address when the operating system is starting up.
What three protocols operate at the application layer of the OSI model?
There are many more than three protocols which can operate at the application layer. Some of these are; Telnet FTP TFTP SMTP IMAP POP DNS RARP BOOTP SNMP CMOT
What type of network would typically require a R ARP service?
Practically, none. BOOTP replaces RARP and DHCP has long since replaced BOOTP. You might have found RARP in use on old UNIX workstations in as late as the early 1990s, but you will never see it in any practical networking situation.
What is dhcb?
No idea. Below information obtained here: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/169289 may help. DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol) is a standard protocol defined by RFC 1541 (which is superseded by RFC 2131) that allows a server to dynamically distribute IP addressing and configuration information to clients. Normally the DHCP server provides the client with at least this basic information: • IP Address • Subnet Mask • Default Gateway Other information can be provided as well, such as Domain Name Service (DNS) server addresses and Windows Internet Name Service (WINS) server addresses. The system administrator configures the DHCP server with the options that are parsed out to the client.
What are the function of RARP?
RARP is short from Reverse Address resolution protocol. As the name suggests RARP functions the reverse as ARP. That is it maps MAC address to IP address.
What type of header does an ARP frame contain?
ARP and RARP protocols are present at network layer. ARP is short form of address resolution protocol. IP is the type of header an ARP frame contain .
How is it different than bootp or rarp?
BOOTP is the booting protocol. RARP is the Reverse address resolution protocol.
How do you run rarp from windows command prompt?
You cant windows does not come with a rarp command and I have yet to find one on the internet that actually works
Advantage of dhcp over bootp?
1. DHCP was designed to replace the older BOOTP 2. BOOTP can only provide an IP to a computer while it is booting while DHCP can provide an IP when the OS is already loaded 3. DHCP is primarily used to seamlessly provide IP addresses to computers while BOOTP is used to configure and boot diskless computers or thin clients 4. BOOTP has a 30 day lease on the IP address as a default while DHCP only sets 8 as a default 5. DHCP can automatically rebind or renew their leases while BOOTP requires a system restart
