A company’s network administrator needs to ensure a specific IP address is never assigned by a
Windows Server 2012 R2 DHCP server to any device connecting to the network.
Which of the following should the administrator configure on the Windows Server 2012 R2 DHCP
server?
A.
Reservation
B.
Scope options
C.
NAP
D.
Scope properties
Explanation:
Configuring an IP address as a reservation will restrict a DHCP server’s assignment of that address
unless a specific MAC address makes a request for the address.
Exclusion is for not use the IP Address or range inside the Scope Pool, Filter is for not use theMAC
Address or range.
Quick Tip: Policies can also be defined per scope or server. Policy based assignment (PBA) allows an
administrator to group DHCP clients by specific attributes based on fields contained in the DHCP
client request packet. This feature allows for targeted administration and greater control of
configuration parameters delivered to network devices.
I think A – Reservation 😉
You need to specify a MAC address for a reservation. That’s not kwown here.
You just need to add an exclusion, which you can configure in the Scope Options.
Given answer is correct.
The correct answer is A.Reservation
A is the answer. haist
Wow, another of those “what do they mean”. If they mean to exclude a specific address in the middle of a scope, then a reservation might be the best option. If it is in the beginnining or end of a ip-range, you might wanna “start scope” with a few higher numbers. These question do not determain if anyone know this stuff or know, only how you would “read” the substance of the question.
In my opinion, the given answer is correct.
needs to ensure a specific IP address is >>NEVER<>ANY<< device connecting to the network.
In this case, you have to add a exclusion to a specific ip address. This can be done in the scope options.
Given answer (B) is correct.
Exclusions aren’t in Scope Options, they are in Address Pool. So with Scope Options will not do. Reservation is dirty trick, because yoou can do a one with a MAC of machine who never would ask for IP (for example: DHCP server).
I’m not sure about NAP, maybe there is a nicer method to do that.
In my opinion, none of the answers are correct, the right answer would be the Address Pool, right-click the Address Pool, there you’ll get New exclusion. You can specify the IP address you wish to exclude
I think the best way to look at this, is that the question said “need to exclude”…not “need to make an IP reservation”. So it’s not A, but B is the correct answer.
I checked the Scope options and didn’t find any way to do exclusion, if you want to make exclusion, you have to go to Address Pool –>right click and then New exclusion !!, so why the answer should be C ?
I would go for option “A”, coz
I think we should make a reservation for that IP address with fake or dummy MAC address like GHIJKLMNOPQR i.e. a MAC address which does not belong to any of the host or device in your network, then that IP address will never be assigned to any device.
Even with a reservation there is a chance the specific IP is assigned to a address, the question states this should never happen!
The given answer is correct
Address pool is located under scope so…..
The other answers don’t make any sense.
You don’t use reservations for an exclussion and the other two answers are bulls..t
You can make a reservation for MAC address “bollocks” and it’ll allow you to set it up. Will prolly convert ‘bollocks’ to ‘b’ but anyway, you can make sure that the reservation is made for a MAC that will never exist, so answer A.
