@Noneof Business kind of, a DHCP reservation specified a specific IP for a specific end point. OP was asking how a device would know that the DHCP offer is for it.
if you are to talk about DHCP and make a presentation and the first words you are talking about DHCP is what the acronym stand for its this; Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol. And DHCP is not a server,but a service around 2:30 mark.and the 6:39 mark when you mention its 255 IP addresses and you have 253 useable IP addresses. Its because you have broadcast address and Network ID, the first IP address in the subnet. Not because of DG/Router IP, that comes besids these 2 IP addresses.
If we speak about enterprise it should mention on dhcp relay. This video explained DHCP in home network, not on Enterprise.
Nice video dear

What does DHCP stand for?
Dynamic host control protocol?
I thought it was Dynamic host configuration protocol?
how does the client knows that the offer was in fact for him?
Due to its MAC address which is a totally unique L2 identifier. It will be contained in the L2 header of the Packets/Frames
