Under 'Changing group scope' header

The second bullet point under the 'Changing group scope' header states
that a global group can be changed to a universal group providing no
member has global scope. This is incorrect. A universal group can contain
global groups, so it is possible to change a global group to a universal
group when one of the members is a global group.

"Reserved addresses cannot be part of an excluded IP address range."

"You can create reservations using any IP address in the scope's address range, even if the IP address is
also within an exclusion range. Because of this design, when the 80/20 rule is implemented and all
addresses in the scope are excluded (80% at one server, 20% at the other), reservations still function
properly."

Last paragraph

The last paragraph talks about issues relating to configuraton and BOOTP-compliance of the DHCP Relay Agent. Within the same context (paragraph), the last sentence talks about verifying the binding of the DHCP Server. It seems almost certain that the aforemention sentence (and subsequent numbered points) belong in the previous subsection headed "Diagnosing and resolving issues related to configuration of DHCP Server and scope options".

Answer to Question 28

Question 28 implies that all VPN connections require static routes.
Surely this would depend on whether the VPN is transient or permanent in nature. The correct answer IMO should be A. (Demand-dial connections).
