Module 1
DHCP in Operation
Not the four messages again - what a server is actually configured with, and the two mistakes that break a subnet quietly.
In this module
- Size a scope against a subnet and its fixed addresses
- Tell a reservation from an exclusion and know when each applies
- Recognise a wrong lease option from the symptom it produces
Activities
Scopes, options and exclusions
What the server holds, and what rides along with every lease.
Lab: the scope that ate the reservations
A re-provisioned DHCP service is handing out addresses that are already spoken for. Find the overlap and fix the scope.
Lab: addresses and a way out
A new operations area needs automatic addressing and internet access. Build both.
Lab: two departments, one router, local addressing
Finance and Support on separate access VLANs, both served by the branch router. Optional - the widest of the DHCP labs.
