A technician has spent most of the day replacing a server running DHCP. Some of the users have
begun to call the help desk stating that Internet connection stopped working even after rebooting.

The technician completes the replacement and powers on the new DHCP server. Which of the
following is the BEST way to provide the PCs with issues a new IP address?
A.
Statically assign a legitimate IP address, and then set the PCs’ NICs to DHCP
B.
Inform each user to replace 169.254 with 192.168
C.
Wait five minutes until the PC resends a DHCP request
D.
Run netstat on each PC and then reboot into safe mode
