Networking with Windows Server 2016 — Question 131

You have a DHCP server named Server1 that runs Windows Server 2016.
You have a single IP subnet.
Server1 has an IPv4 scope named Scope1. Scope1 has an IP address range of 10.0.1.10 to 10.0.1.200 and a length of 24 bits.
You need to create a second logical IP network on the subnet. The subnet will use an IP address range of 10.0.2.10 to 10.0.2.200 and a length of 24 bits.
What should you do?

Answer options

• A. Create a second scope, and then create a superscope.
• B. Create a superscope, and then configure an exclusion range in Scope1.
• C. Create a new scope, and then modify the IPv4 bindings.
• D. Create a second scope, and then run the DHCP Split-Scope Configuration Wizard.

Correct answer: A

Explanation

The correct answer is A because creating a second scope and a superscope allows multiple scopes to be managed together under a single logical entity, facilitating the management of different IP ranges within the same subnet. Option B is incorrect as creating a superscope alone does not help in defining a new network; exclusion ranges are for excluding certain IPs within a scope. Option C is not valid since modifying IPv4 bindings does not create a new logical network. Lastly, option D does not apply because the Split-Scope Configuration Wizard is meant for distributing a single scope between multiple DHCP servers, not for creating a new logical network.
