You are a network administrator for your company. The network consists of multiple physical segments. The network contains two Windows Server 2003 computers named Server1 and Server2, and several Windows 2000 Server computers. Server1 is configured with a single DHCP scope for the 10.250.100.0/24 network with an IP address range of 10.250.100.10 to 10.250.100.100. Several users on the network report that they cannot connect to file and print servers, but they can connect to each other’s client computers. All other users on the network are able to connect to all network resources. You run the ipconfig.exe /all command on one of the affected client computers and observe the information in the following table.

You need to configure all affected client computers so that they can communicate with all other hosts on the network.

Which two actions should you take? (Each correct answer presents part of the solution. Choose two.)

A.
Run the ipconfig.exe /registerdns command on all affected client computers.

B.
Delete all IP address reservations in the scope on Server1.

C.
Increase the IP address range for the 10.250.100.0/24 scope on Server1.

D.
Run the ipconfig.exe /renew command on all affected client computers.

E.
Disable the DHCP service on Server2.

F.
Add global DHCP scope options to Server1 for default gateway, DNS servers, and WINS servers.

Explanation:
We can see from the exhibit that the affected computer received it’s IP configuration from Server2. We can also see that the IP configuration has no default gateway, WINS or DNS addresses. Obviously, Server2 is misconfigured. Other client computers have no problems; it is likely that they get their IP configuration from Server1. We can either correctly configure the DHCP service on Server2 or we can disable it and just use Server1 as the DHCP server. We need to run the ipconfig/renew command on all affected client computers so that they can update their IP configurations using Server1 as their DHCP server. Answer A is correct, because it is the only option given that tells you to disable the DHCP service on Server2.
