NetworkingEasy

Which of the following is an example of a DHCP option that a DHCP server can assign to a client along with its IP address?

Correct.

The concept

DHCP servers deliver requested DHCP options to clients in addition to the leased IP address, such as Router, DNS Servers, and DNS Domain Name.

Why this answer

The Router option is explicitly cited as a DHCP option that supplies the default gateway address to the client along with the leased IP address.

  • Correct: this is one of the named DHCP option examples supplied with a lease.
  • BA MAC address identifies the client to the server but is not an option delivered by the server to the client.
  • CProcessor architecture is not part of the TCP/IP configuration information a DHCP server distributes.
  • DOperating system version is not a DHCP option; DHCP configures network parameters, not OS metadata.
