0Which statement is correct about the DHCP process?
Answer Options
A
The DHCP server is responsible for maintaining the life cycle of an IP address.
B
DHCP uses multicasting between the client and server.
C
The DHCP client is responsible for maintaining the life cycle of an IP address.
D
The DHCP lease is negotiated between client and server.
Correct Answer: C
Explanation
After the initial Discover, Offer, Request, and Acknowledge, it is the client's responsibility to maintain the lease of the IP address. This includes release and renewal. The DHCP server is not responsible for maintaining the life cycle of an IP address. DHCP does not use multicasting between the client and server. The DHCP lease is mandated by the configuration on the DHCP server.
