Which of the following is a feature of DHCP Failover?

  1. Static IP address assignment

  2. Script-based management

  3. Load balancing between two servers

  4. Only one active server at a time

The correct answer is: Load balancing between two servers

A feature of DHCP Failover is load balancing between two servers, which allows you to distribute IP address assignments across multiple DHCP servers. This configuration enhances reliability and improves performance, ensuring clients can still receive IP addresses from an alternate server in the event of a server failure or high demand. In a load balancing scenario, both DHCP servers share the responsibility of issuing IP addresses and can offer a more robust environment for managing dynamic IP assignments. When both servers are active, they can also provide redundancy, allowing one server to handle requests while the other can take over if necessary. The other options do not align with the primary features of DHCP Failover. Static IP address assignment relates to methods of assigning IPs that do not involve DHCP methods like failover. Script-based management, while useful for automating processes, does not specifically pertain to the inherent capabilities of DHCP Failover. Lastly, having only one active server at a time contradicts the purpose of failover, which is to ensure that multiple servers can work in tandem to provide continuous service to clients.
