1. How does a DHCP server dynamically assign IP address to host?

Explanation

A DHCP server dynamically assigns IP addresses to hosts by leasing them. The host is assigned an IP address for a fixed period of time. To keep the same address, the host periodically contacts the DHCP server to renew the lease. This allows for efficient management of IP addresses and ensures that hosts can keep using the same address as long as they need it.

2. Refer to the exhibit. Which rule does the DHCP server use when there is an IP address conflict?

Explanation

When there is an IP address conflict, the DHCP server removes the conflicting address from the pool until the conflict is resolved. This ensures that the conflicting address is not assigned to any other device and avoids further conflicts.

3. Which statement is correct regarding the operation of DHCP?

Explanation

An address conflict occurs when two hosts use the same IP address. During address assignment, DHCP checks for conflicts using ping and gratuitous ARP. If a conflict is detected, the address is removed from the pool. The address will not be assigned until the administrator resolves the conflict.

4. When a DHCP server is configured, which two IP addresses should never be assignable to hosts? (Choose two)

Explanation

Network or subnetwork IP address (for example 11.0.0.0/8 or 13.1.0.0/16) and broadcast address (for example 23.2.1.255/24) should never be assignable to hosts. When try to assign these addresses to hosts, you will receive an error message saying that they can’t be assignable.

5. Which two tasks does the Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol perform? (Choose two)

Explanation

The Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) performs two tasks: configuring IP address parameters from the DHCP server to a host and assigning and renewing IP addresses from the default pool. DHCP is responsible for automatically assigning IP addresses to devices on a network, ensuring that they have the necessary network configuration to communicate. It allows for centralized management of IP address allocation and simplifies the process of connecting devices to a network.
