Note: This question is part of a series of questions that present the same scenario. Each question in the series contains a unique solution that might meet the stated goals. Some question sets might have more than one correct solution, while others might not have a correct solution. After you answer a question in this section, you will NOT be able to return to it. As a result these questions will not appear in the review screen. You have a server named Server1 that runs Windows Server 2022 and has the DHCP Server role. Server1 contains a single DHCP scope named Scope1. You deploy five printers to the network. You need to ensure that the printers are always assigned the same IP address. Solution: You deploy a DHCP relay agent to the network. Does this meet the requirement?

Explanation

No, deploying a DHCP relay agent does not meet the requirement. A DHCP relay agent (also known as a DHCP helper) simply forwards DHCP broadcast messages between subnets so that clients on remote subnets can reach a DHCP server on a different subnet. It has no mechanism to ensure that any specific device always receives the same IP address. To guarantee that the five printers always receive the same IP address, you must create DHCP reservations - entries that bind a specific IP address to each printer's MAC address within the DHCP scope. When a reserved client requests an IP, the DHCP server always assigns the reserved address regardless of lease state.
