The correct answer is A. Gateway address E. Subnet mask. To enable Internet access for clients, a DHCP server must at minimum provide the client with a default gateway address for routing off-network traffic and a subnet mask to define its local network.

Why each option
To enable Internet access for clients, a DHCP server must at minimum provide the client with a default gateway address for routing off-network traffic and a subnet mask to define its local network.
The gateway address, also known as the default gateway, is crucial because it tells the client where to send all traffic destined for networks outside its local subnet, including the internet.
An SNA server is part of an older IBM networking architecture and is not required for client computers to access the Internet.
A mail server address is necessary for email services but is not a fundamental configuration required by DHCP for general Internet access.
A web server address is not a required DHCP configuration for clients to simply access the Internet, as web servers are external resources clients connect to.
The subnet mask is essential for a client to determine which IP addresses are on its local network and which require routing through the default gateway to reach the Internet.
