Answers

D.
Link local address
Answers
D.
Link local address
Suggested answer: B

Explanation:

The DHCP client sends broadcast request packets to the network; the DHCP servers respond with broadcast packets that offer IP parameters, such as an IP address for the client. After the client chooses the IP parameters, communication between the client and server is by unicast packets. "When a DHCP client boots up, it automatically sends out a DHCP Discover UDP datagram to the broadcast address, 255.255.255.255. This DHCP Discover message asks “Are there any DHCP servers out there?” The client can’t send unicast traffic yet, as it doesn’t have a valid IP address that can be used."
