A network administrator notices that some devices have IP addresses in the 169.254.x.x range. Which DHCP issue does this indicate?

The devices failed to obtain an IP address from the DHCP server.

The DNS server is not resolving the DHCP server's hostname.

The DHCP scope is configured with a wrong subnet mask.

The NTP service is not synchronizing the device clock.

A server's clock is consistently off by 10 minutes, and the NTP service is running. The server can reach the NTP server on UDP port 123. Which step should you take next to resolve the time synchronization issue?

Check the NTP configuration for the correct server address and timezone settings.

Restart the server to force a time sync.

Disable the firewall to allow NTP traffic.

Change the server's timezone to UTC.

A user reports that their computer shows a 'Limited connectivity' message and cannot access network resources. Which DHCP issue is most likely the cause?

The DHCP server has run out of IP addresses in the scope.

The default gateway is misconfigured.

The DNS server is not responding.

The client's network cable is unplugged.

A company has a DHCP server that also acts as a DNS server. After a power outage, the server comes back online, but clients cannot obtain IP addresses. The DHCP service is running, and the scope has available addresses. Which additional factor should you investigate?

The DHCP server's binding to the network interface or the relay agent configuration.
