- D.
  
  Subnet mask
- E.
  
  Default gateway
Correct Answer(s)
A. Ip address
D. Subnet mask
E. Default gateway

Explanation
A TCP/IP network interface that is configured to use DHCP obtains the IP address, subnet mask, and default gateway information from the DHCP server. The IP address is necessary for the device to identify and communicate with other devices on the network. The subnet mask helps determine the network address and the range of IP addresses that can be used within that network. The default gateway is the IP address of the router or gateway device that connects the local network to other networks or the internet.
