Your network contains two DHCP servers. The DHCP servers are named DHCP1 and DHCP2. The internal network contains 1,000 DHCP client computers that are located on a single subnet. A router separates the internal network from the Internet. The router has a single IP address on the internal interface.
DHCP1 has the following scope information:
Starting IP address: 172.16.0.1
Ending IP address: 172.16.7.254
Subnet mask: 255.255.240.0 You need to provide a fault tolerant DHCP infrastructure that supports the client computers on the internal network. In the event that a DHCP server fails, all client computers must be able to obtain a valid IP address.
How should you configure DHCP2?
