A system administrator is troubleshooting a network connectivity issue and runs ipconfig/all on the host.
The command returns the following: IPv4 Address: 169.254.0.12 - Subnet mask: 255.255.0.0 - The client is configured for DHCP.
Which of the following commands should be run on the client to resolve this issue? (Select TWO).
Click on the arrows to vote for the correct answer
A. B. C. D. E. F.AD.
The IP address 169.254.0.12 is an Automatic Private IP Addressing (APIPA) address, which is assigned by the host itself when it cannot get an IP address from a DHCP server. APIPA addresses are used for local communication within a network segment and cannot be used to communicate with devices outside the segment.
To resolve this issue, the client needs to obtain a valid IP address from a DHCP server. The following two commands can be used for this purpose:
A. ipconfig/release: This command releases the current IP configuration of the client, including the assigned IP address, subnet mask, and default gateway. This command is useful when the client has an incorrect IP configuration or when it needs to obtain a new IP address.
D. ipconfig/renew: This command requests a new IP configuration from a DHCP server. When the client sends this request, the DHCP server assigns a new IP address, subnet mask, and default gateway to the client.
Therefore, the correct answers are A and D.
The other commands are not relevant to the issue at hand.
B. tracert: This command is used to trace the route that a packet takes from the client to a remote host. It is useful for troubleshooting network connectivity issues, but it is not relevant to the issue of obtaining a valid IP address from a DHCP server.
C. ipconfig/flushdns: This command clears the DNS cache on the client. It is useful when the client is unable to resolve domain names to IP addresses, but it is not relevant to the issue of obtaining a valid IP address from a DHCP server.
E. ipconfig/showclassid: This command displays the class ID for the DHCP client. It is not relevant to the issue of obtaining a valid IP address from a DHCP server.
F. nslookup: This command is used to query a DNS server for information about a domain name or IP address. It is useful for troubleshooting DNS-related issues, but it is not relevant to the issue of obtaining a valid IP address from a DHCP server.
