Similar questions have been asked and answered with a treatise on network topologies. I do have networking experience, and I am hoping to get more to the point in my explanation. I was configuring DHCP server on a Microsoft 2008 server. There is a scope option "005 Name Servers" followed by "006 DNS Servers." Both allow a list of IPv4 addresses as the data. My assistant asked what the difference was, and I did not know what to tell him. So, I am asking... what is the difference?
Thanks.

@Ramhound: After reading the actual question, it doesn't look like a duplicate at all. The answer about general terminology does not apply to DHCP option names, and in this case would be outright wrong.

According to IANA's DHCP options registry, option 5 is for specifying an IEN-116 protocol name server – which is an early precursor to DNS, also called the ARPA Host Name Server Protocol.
(IENs (Internet Experiment Notes) were documents similar to RFCs. For example, before the TCP/IPv4 RFCs were released, there were IENs written about TCPv3, TCPv2, and so on.)
There is an option for WINS, but that's option 44 "NETBIOS Name Servers".
