CCENT Certification:

Which of the following are contained in a DHCP Offer packet? Extra credit: Name the device(s) that send DHCP Offers, and tell me whether that packet is a broadcast, unicast, or multicast.

A. The IP address

B. The network mask

The amount of time the Client can keep this information if the Offer is accepted (the lease)

The IP address of the DHCP Server that is making the offer

CCNA:

Short answer: Two OSPF routers connected via an Ethernet segment are exchanging Hello packets. How often will these packets be sent? And by default, what will the OSPF dead time for that link be?

Answer: By default those Hello packets will be sent out every 10 seconds, and since the default dead time is four times the hello time, the dead time will be 40 seconds.
