    B & C. This is ambiguous. ABC.com is a domain, but it doesn’t say it’s an Active Directory domain. Because it doesn’t explicitly say “Active Directory”, answer B is questionable. A and C however, are not. The answer is wrong. The scope MUST be activated, and of course, the clients must be configured for auto-IP.

    My two cents:

    The question states “You install the DHCP server services on a server named ABC_SR02 and configure a DHCP scope for the ABC.com network”. When you go through creating a new scope using the New Scope Wizard the last check box asks “Do you want to activate this scope now?”. Implicitly the question leads us to believe the scope has already been activated.

    B & C

    Hi All,

    Folks, I think it’s should be A and B only. Here is my reasoning. By default, when you build a client machine, you don’t need to “configure” it to obtain an IP address – that is its default config, therefore I believe it negates ‘C’ as a valid answer.

    However, you do have to authorize the server, and activate the scope after config’ing it.

    Let me know what you guys think…

    The correct answer is A,B,C
    —> Install DHCP
    —> Authorize DHCP in AD
    —> create and ACTIVATE scope (you can activate it when you create scope and you can choose “Activate scope later”)
    —> Configure the client computers to Obtain an IP address automatically.

    Test in lab 🙂

    As I understand the installation process of a DHCP server you only need activate scopes if you plan several (more than one) subnets. If there is one subnet there is no need to activate or even create a scope.
    As the question does not mention any subnets I’m assuming there is only 1 and therefor the answer I would choose is BC.
