Configuring DHCP

What is a primary property defined within a DHCP scope?

• MAC address of the client

• IP address range for assignment

• Physical location of the server

• User login credentials

How are IP addresses typically grouped within DHCP for assignment?

• By device type

• By user department

• Into contiguous pools per subnet

• Randomly across the network

Which type of DHCP address assignment ensures a device always receives the same IP address if it was previously assigned and is still available?

• Dynamic assignment

• Manual assignment

• Automatic assignment

• Lease assignment

What is the primary purpose of an address reservation in DHCP?

• To temporarily block an IP address from being assigned.

• To ensure a specific device always receives a predetermined IP address.

• To allow manual configuration of IP addresses on client devices.

• To reclaim unused IP addresses after a lease period.

What happens to a DHCP-assigned IP address when a device is rebooted or unplugged from the network?

• It is permanently assigned

• It is immediately released back to the pool

• It is reinitialized and the lease is potentially restarted

• It is automatically renewed without any action

At what point in the lease time does a DHCP client typically attempt to renew its IP address with the original DHCP server?

• 25% of the lease time

• 50% of the lease time

• 75% of the lease time

• 87.5% of the lease time

If the original DHCP server is unavailable during the renewal period, at what percentage of the lease time will a client attempt to rebind with any available DHCP server?

• 50%

• 62.5%

• 75%

• 87.5%

What type of information, beyond basic IP configuration (address, subnet mask, default gateway), can DHCP options provide to a client?

• Physical MAC address

• DNS server addresses

• CPU utilization limits

• Hard drive partition sizes
