An administrator wants to simplify the configuration of network devices and enable users to access resources using hostnames instead of numerical addresses. Which combination of services should be implemented to achieve these goals?
Implement DHCP for automatic network configuration and DNS for hostname resolution
Use FTP for network configuration and SNMP for hostname resolution
Deploy NAT to automate network settings and TFTP for hostname access
Configure NTP for network configuration and SSH for accessing hostnames
To achieve automatic network configuration, the administrator should implement DHCP, which assigns network addresses and settings to devices without manual intervention. For enabling users to access resources using hostnames, DNS should be used, as it resolves human-readable names to network addresses. Therefore, implementing both DHCP and DNS fulfills the administrator's requirements. The other options incorrectly associate these functions with services like FTP (used for file transfers), NTP (used for time synchronization), or NAT (used for translating private addresses to public addresses), which do not meet the specified goals.
