1. You need to ensure that a print device receives the same IP address when connecting to the network. What value do you need to configure on the DHCP server to enable a reservation?

To enable a reservation for a print device on a DHCP server, you need to configure the device's MAC address, ensuring it always receives the same IP address.

A DHCP server is like a networking wizard that automatically assigns unique addresses to devices, such as your computer or phone, when they join a network.

It's like getting a designated parking spot at a busy mall - the server ensures each device has its own spot, making it easy for them to communicate and share information.

This way, you don't have to manually configure network settings; the DHCP server does the job for you, making connections hassle-free.
