Question 12

Flashcard question: What is the purpose of using private IP address ranges for DHCP scope?

Answer 12

Flashcard answer: Private IP address ranges are used for DHCP scope because they are set aside by the IANA for use on private networks and are not routable on the Internet.

Question 13

Flashcard question: How big the DHCP scope should be depends on?

Answer 13

Flashcard answer: How big the DHCP scope should be depends on the size of the organization and the number of clients that will be connecting to the network.

Question 16

Flashcard question: What is the DHCP console in Windows Server?

Answer 16

Flashcard answer: The DHCP console is a management tool in Windows Server that allows administrators to create and configure DHCP scopes, DHCP reservations, and DHCP options on the DHCP server. It can be accessed by searching for it in the start menu or by running “dhcpmgmt.msc” command in the command prompt.

Question 17

Flashcard question: What is the benefit of DHCP reservations?

Answer 17

Flashcard answer: DHCP reservations are specific IP addresses that are reserved for specific clients. It allows the DHCP server to assign a specific IP address to a specific client, which helps to maintain consistency in IP address assignments and also for troubleshooting purposes.
