And today's poser is ....

Q57. You administer your company's Windows 2000 network. To automate the configuration of TCP/IP clients and network printers on your network, you install and configure DHCP on a Windows 2000 Server computer. You create a scope that contains the range of valid IP addresses for the network.

In order for the network printers to always receive the same IP address, you create an exclusion entry for the addresses used by the network printers. You also create an address resevation for each printer.

You discover that none of the network printers are receiving their IP address configuration from the DHCP server. However, all other TCP/IP clients have the proper TCP/IP configuration. What should you do?

A. Enable address conflict detection on the DHCP server.

B. Disable address conflict detection on the DHCP server.

C. Remove the address reservation for the network printers.

D. Remove the exclusion range for the IP addresses used by the network printers.

Good Luck .... see you tomorrow for the answer!!

I'd say D by creating the exclusion the ip addresses are excluded from the DHCP scope at least I hope thats right

I'll say D.

My pick:

D. Remove the exclusion range for the IP addresses used by the network printers.

Definately D !

(I think better when I listen to Beethoven! )

Excluded addresses can be active on the network, but only if they are "manually" assigned to non-DHCP clients!

A. although beneficial will not solve the problem and is unrelated
B. disabling it would decrease traffic and server load, not related
C. removing reservation makes all adresses available, so no way, you want reservations for the printer
D. This is the trouble maker!!! you use this to manually configure IPs

D for me please Bob.

And the answer is ....

Correct Answers: D

The proper procedure to ensure that the printers always receive the same IP addresses is to create address reservations for them.

In this scenario, the DHCP server must assign addresses to all TCP/IP clients on the network, including network printers. Both address exclusions and address reservations for network printers were created, but this resulted in network printers not receiving proper TCP/IP configuration from the DHCP server. This occurred for two reasons. First, each network printer has an IP address reserved for its unique MAC address. This prevents any other address from being assigned to that MAC address. Second, the block of IP addresses assigned to these devices has been excluded. Therefore, the only assigned address for each printer is excluded and not available on the network. The solution is to remove the exclusion range.

Removing the IP address reservation would enable the network printers to receive an IP address from the DHCP server.

However, the printers would not necessarily receive the same IP addresses each time their address lease expired. Reserving an IP address is the only DHCP option that can accomplish this goal.

Address conflict detection is used to detect if a particular address requested by a client already exists on the network. This option should be enabled to ease administrative effort. However, this option will have no effect on the network printer configuration.
