What is the BEST reason for setting a shorter duration for network address assignments in an environment with frequent device turnover and diverse client devices?
It improves the efficiency of network management hardware by reducing its operational load.
It strengthens network security by frequently altering network addresses, deterring continuous unauthorized access.
It reduces the overall traffic on the network by minimizing the number of requests for new network addresses.
It facilitates quicker recycling of network resources in environments with high device turnover, adjusting swiftly to configuration changes.
Setting a shorter duration for network address assignments is advantageous in environments where the configuration often changes due to the high turnover of devices. This practice helps in promptly releasing addresses that are no longer in use, mitigating the risk of address conflicts and effectively managing a fluctuating number of devices without the need for a large pool of addresses. While longer durations decrease the load on the network's management protocols by reducing the frequency of requests, they are less adaptable to rapid changes typical in dynamic environments.
