In a high-traffic environment, devices are failing to receive addresses even though the service shows no faults. Which issue is most likely responsible for denying new address assignments?
An invalid route preventing lease requests
The address range is used up
A time synchronization conflict preventing acknowledgments
When the address range is used up, no new addresses can be assigned to additional devices. This situation is known as scope exhaustion, which indicates that the resource range has been depleted. The other options might cause various networking problems, but they do not reflect an address range that is no longer available.
