  1. chaddr is MAC adress!

    Correct answer is D = yiaddr.

    Explanation:
    The DHCP server will send the DHCPOFFER to the broadcast address, but will include the clients hardware address in the chaddr field of the offer.
    yiaddr = If the client IP address is 0.0.0.0, the DHCP server will place the offered client IP address in this field. The DHCP server will fill in the yiaddr field of the DHCPOFFER message with the requested IP address
