Which option is rarely assigned as a Server level option in DHCP?

  1. 003: Router.

  2. 015: DNS domain name.

  3. 006: DNS servers.

  4. 042: Network Time Protocol servers.

The correct answer is: 003: Router.

In the context of DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol), the assignment of options at the server level allows administrators to define specific parameters that clients will use when they receive their IP configurations. Option 003, which specifies the router (or default gateway) that clients should use for outbound traffic, is typically configured at the scope level rather than at the server level. This is because different subnets often require different default gateways, leading to the common practice of setting this option at the more granular scope level to match the specific needs of each segment of the network. On the other hand, options such as the DNS domain name, DNS servers, and Network Time Protocol servers are more frequently assigned at the server level because they typically apply to all clients in a network or organizational unit, regardless of their subnet. This means these parameters can be universally effective across different scopes within a DHCP server, which is why they are more commonly set at that level.
