Question
You are the network administrator of an Active Directory domain that runs Microsoft Windows Server 2003, Standard Edition. You are responsible for managing and maintaining all DHCP servers in the organization. You need to create a test lab that represents the current production environment.

What should you do?

Explanation
Explanation: The most efficient way to transfer a DHCP database is to make a backup of it. The database can then be restored on the original computer or transferred to another computer. In this case the test tab would be the other computer to which the DHCP database should be restored so as to create a replica that runs independent from the rest of the production network. Incorrect answers: B: You should be restoring the DHCP database on the DHCP server in the testlab, not reconcile it. C: This will take too long. D: Restoring the DHCP database is quicker than copying it to the server in the testlab. 2003 Network Infrastructure, Microsoft Press, Redmond, 2003, Chapter 13, p. 24
