Question

A server administrator is setting up DHCP and wants to make sure a specific IP address within a DHCP pool is not given out. What needs to be added to the pool to accomplish this?

APIPA
Dynamic IP address
Reservation
Static IP address

Answer 1

Reservation (Correct)

Step-by-step explanation:

DHCP reservation is a permanent IP address assignment. It is a specific IP address within DHCP scope that is permanently reserved for leased use to a specific DHCP client. Users can configure a DHCP reservation in their DHCP server when they need to reserve a permanent IP address assignment. Reservations are used for DHCP enabled devices like print and file servers or other application servers that always have the fixed IP address on the network.
