A company has a single-forest and single Active Directory Domain Services (AD DS) domain named
Fabrikam.com that runs Windows 2012 Server. The AD DS forest functional level and the domain
functional level are both set to Windows 2008 R2. You use IP Address Management (IPAM) as the IP
management solution. You have two DHCP Servers named DHCP1 and DHCP2, and one IPAM server
named IPAM1.
The company plans to acquire a company named Contoso, Ltd., which has a single-forest and singledomain AD DS named contoso.com. The forest functional level and domain functional level of
Contoso.com is set to Windows 2008. All servers at Contoso run Windows Server 2008. The IP
management solution at Contoso is based on a single DHCP server named SERVER3.
The total number of users in both companies will be 5000.
You have the following requirements:
The solution must be able to allocate up to three IP addresses per user.
All IP address leases must be renewed every two days.
You need to ensure that the corresponding servers will have enough capacity to store six years of IP
utilization data and eight months of event catalog data.
What should you recommend?
A.
Add at least 20 GB of storage to the IPAM server.
B.
Migrate Contoso.com to Fabrikam.com.
C.
Establish a forest trust between Contoso.com and Fabrikam.com.
D.
Upgrade SERVER3 to Windows Server 2012.
Explanation:
You can use IPAM to manage DHCP servers running on Windows Server 2008 R2 and above. Here
Server3 is running Windows 2008 however, so it needs to be upgraded.
