IP address    Detection method        Detection time

Which statement is true about the DHCP exchange?

• The client was successfully configured with IP address 10.1.0.3.
• The DHCP server offered the address 10.1.0.3 to the client.
• The client requested 10.1.0.3 from the server.
• The DHCP server could not ping 10.1.0.3.

Explanation: At first glance, A might seem like the correct answer. The DHCPNACK message generated by the debug command does confirm that the host was provided with IP address 10.1.0.3. However, the show command displays a conflict, which means that the host was unsuccessful, so A is incorrect.
