A. B. C. D.

In AWS, a Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) option set is a collection of DHCP options that can be assigned to a Virtual Private Cloud (VPC). DHCP option sets contain configuration information that is applied to instances when they launch in the VPC.

The answer to this question is A. 1. Only one DHCP option set can be assigned to a VPC at a time. This is because DHCP option sets contain network configuration information that applies to all instances launched in the VPC. If multiple DHCP option sets were allowed, it could lead to conflicting or inconsistent configuration information being applied to instances.

Note that although only one DHCP option set can be assigned to a VPC, that set can contain multiple DHCP options. DHCP options define specific configuration information, such as DNS servers or NTP servers, that instances use when they launch in the VPC. AWS provides a default DHCP option set for each VPC, but you can create custom option sets and assign them to the VPC as needed.

It's also worth noting that DHCP option sets are region-specific. If you have instances in multiple regions that require different network configuration information, you'll need to create a separate DHCP option set for each region.
