What must happen if a DHCP IP conflict occurs?

A) Proxy ARP will fix the issue B) The client uses a gratuitous ARP to fix the issue
C) The administrator must fix the conflict by hand at the DHCP server D) The DHCP server will reassign new IP addresses to both computers
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: C) The administrator must fix the conflict by hand at the DHCP server

Explanation:

If a DHCP Conflict is detected, either by the server sending a ping and getting response or by a host using a gratuitous ARP (arp'ing for its own IP address and seeing if a host responds), then the server will hold that address and not use it again until it is fixed by an administrator.

A) access-list 10 permit smtp host 1.1.1.1 B) access-list 110 permit ip smtp host 1.1.1.1
C) access-list 10 permit tcp any host 1.1.1.1 eq smtp D) access-list 110 permit tcp any host 1.1.1.1 eq smtp
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: D) access-list 110 permit tcp any host 1.1.1.1 eq smtp

Explanation:

when trying to find the best answer to an access - list question, always check the access - list bnumber and then the protocol. When filtering to an upper - layer protocol, you must use an extended list, numbers 100 - 199 and 2000 - 2699. Also, when you filter to the port of an upper - layer protocol, you must use either tcp or udp in the ACL protocol field. If it says ip in the protocol field, you cannot filoter on the port number of an upper - layer protocol. SMTP uses TCP
