Networking with Windows Server 2016 — Question 107

You have an IP Address Management (IPAM) server named Server1 that runs Windows Server 2016. You have five DHCP servers. Server1 manages all of the
DHCP servers.
On Server1, an administrator uses Purge Event Catalog Data to remove all of the events from the last 30 days.
You need to view all of these lease requests that were denied during the last two days.
What should you do?

Answer options

• A. On each DHCP server, run the \Microsoft\Windows\Server Manager\CleanUpOldPerfLogs scheduled task, and then review the event catalog on Server1.
• B. On Server1, run the Purge Event Catalog Data action and then open Event Viewer on Server1.
• C. Review the log data in C:\Windows\System32\ipam\Database on Server1.
• D. On each DHCP server, review the DHCP Server operational event log.

Correct answer: C

Explanation

The correct answer is C because the log data in the specified directory contains the necessary information about denied lease requests. Option A is incorrect as it refers to a cleanup task which does not directly relate to the lease requests. Option B is also wrong since purging the event catalog removes the data needed to view denied requests. Option D fails to address the central server's logs managed by Server1.
