CompTIA Server+ (SK0-005) — Question 230

A systems administrator is setting up a second VLAN for end users. Which of the following should be provisioned for a DHCP server to be able to receive client requests from a different subnet?

Answer options

• A. DHCP options
• B. NIC teaming
• C. Zone transfers
• D. Relay agent
• E. VLAN ID

Correct answer: D

Explanation

The correct answer is D, Relay agent, as it enables DHCP messages to be forwarded between different subnets. The other options do not directly facilitate the communication needed for DHCP requests across VLANs; for example, NIC teaming and zone transfers are unrelated to DHCP functionality.
