You are the network administrator of a network with 90 workstations on a single subnet. Workstations are running Windows 8.
All client computers are configured to receive IP address assignments using DHCP. A single server called SRV1 running Windows Server 2012 R2 provides DHCP services and is configured with a single scope: 194.172.64.10 to 194.172.64.254.
You want to add a second DHCP server for redundancy and fault tolerance. The existing DHCP server should assign most of the addresses, while the second server will be primarily a backup. You want the two servers to work together, efficiently, to assign the available addresses. However, you want to do this while using Microsoft’s best practices and with as little administrative overhead possible.
You install a Windows Server 2012 R2 server named SRV2 as the secondary server and configure it with the DHCP service.
How should you configure the scopes on both servers?
ANSWER: On both servers, set the scope range to 194.172.64.10 to 194.172.64.254. On SRV1, exclude addresses 194.172.64.206 to 194.172.64.254. On SRV2, exclude addresses 192.172.64.10 to 192.172.64.205
