Free CompTIA A+ 220-1101 Practice Question

The correct answer is DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol), since it is the role a server takes to dynamically distribute network configuration parameters, such as IP addresses, for interfaces and services. With DHCP, client machines can “lease” an IP address for a certain period of time. DNS (Domain Name System) serves as the phonebook for the internet, translating domain names to IP addresses, not dynamically assigning them. Syslog is used for logging and monitoring network devices, not for assigning IP addresses. A fileshare server is used for storing and sharing files, not assigning IP addresses.
