An administrator needs to ensure that network devices in a newly established branch office automatically receive network configuration parameters and retain their assigned IP addresses for a period equivalent to one week. What configuration parameter should they adjust in the network's server responsible for dynamic IP assignment?
Configure the server's address lease time for 168 hours
Decrease the server's refresh interval to reflect a weekly cycle
Adjust the server's network time protocol to a 7-day refresh rate
Set the maximum transmission unit on the server to match one week of data flow
In a network server that assigns dynamic IP addresses, the lease time determines the duration a device can keep its IP address before needing to request renewal. Setting this parameter to 168 hours matches the duration equivalent to one week.
