Answer the question above first, then reveal the full breakdown to understand why each option is right or wrong.
Correct answer & explanation
Configure primary server with failover peer and standby IP
DHCP failover requires both servers to be configured with the same scope and failover parameters. First, configure the primary server with the failover peer name and IP address of the standby. Then, configure the standby server with the same peer name and the primary's IP. Enable the failover on the primary, which starts the negotiation. The standby then enters partner-down state until it synchronizes. Finally, both servers become active and share lease information.
