What Direct Console User Interface option should the administrator use to renew the DHCP lease for the hosts?

  1. Restore Network Settings

  2. Test Management Network

  3. Restart Management Network

  4. Network Restore Options

The correct answer is: Restart Management Network

To renew the DHCP lease for the hosts, the option to restart the management network is the most appropriate choice. When an administrator selects this option, it triggers the management network to stop and then start again, which includes re-establishing the connection with the DHCP server. This process effectively allows the host to request a new IP address from the DHCP server, thus renewing the lease on the IP address. The other options do not provide the same functionality. Restoring network settings would revert the network configuration to a previous state, which might not facilitate the renewal of the DHCP lease. Testing the management network is primarily used to verify connectivity settings and does not specifically focus on renewing an IP lease. Network restore options generally pertain to restoring specific network configurations from a backup rather than addressing lease renewals directly. This is why restarting the management network is the correct response for renewing the DHCP lease.
