David is a network administrator in an organization. The organization’s DHCP server has crashed and cannot be brought back online. The last backup is four days old. How can he preserve the current address space without restarting all user computers?
  1. Deploy a new DHCP server with the same address scope and increase the new lease duration to 15 days.
  2. Deploy a new DHCP server with the same address scope and raise conflict detection attempts to 3.
  3. Restore the previous DHCP database from a backup.
  4. Run the Ipconfig /renew command on all computers.
Explanation
Answer - B - David should deploy a new DHCP server with the same address scope and raise conflict detection attempts to 3.

Key Takeaway: To enable address conflict detection you should Open DHCP, and click the applicable DHCP server in the console tree. On the Action menu, click Properties. Click the Advanced tab. For Conflict detection attempts, type a number greater than 0 (zero) and less than six. Then, click OK. The number specified here determines how many times the DHCP server tests an IP address before leasing it to a client.
