Your network contains an Active Directory domain named adatum.com. The domain contains two DHCP servers named Server1 and Server2. Server1 has the following IP configuration.
Server2 has the following IP configuration.
Some users report that sometimes they cannot access the network because of conflicting IP addresses.
You need to configure DHCP to avoid leasing addresses that are in use already.
Solution: On Server2, you modify the StartRange IP address of the scope.
Does this meet the goal?
A. Yes
B. No
The given answer is correct.
The range of server 1 is 172.16.0.20 – 172.16.0.100. The range of Server 2 is 172.16.0.80 – 172.16.0.150. There is an overlap of IPs for .80-.100. If you modify Server2 to have a start IP of .101, this will solve the issue.
the answer is NO
As users has reported conflicting IP addresses, very likely Server1 is running a scope that has overlapping ranges with the unmentioned Server2, modifying the
scope IP address range on Server1 could solve the problem.
