What's the difference between Static and DHCP Manual Address?
just wanting to learn is all

Static are "fixed" in that they cannot be changed. You can do that through the DHCP server or by manually entering the address on the computer/device itself. Also known as "manual".

Dynamic is where the DHCP server gives out the addresses as they are requested.

You can have a DHCP server recognized a particular device through it's MAC address (hardware address" and give the requesting device a one address no matter what. That's a DHCP reservation.
