A scope is a consecutive range of IP addresses that a DNS server can draw on to fulfill an IP address request from a DNS client.Select one:TrueFalse

The statement regarding a scope being a consecutive range of IP addresses that a DNS server can draw on to fulfill an IP address request from a DNS client is actually False.

Explanation

1. Definition of Scope: In the context of networking and DNS (Domain Name System), the term "scope" typically refers to the range of IP addresses that are available for allocation to clients. However, in terms of DNS, it does not strictly mean a range of IP addresses as DNS servers manage domain names and their corresponding records rather than directly managing IP address allocation.

2. Allocation of IP Addresses: IP addresses are usually managed by DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol) servers in a network, which distribute IP addresses from a specified pool (or scope) to client devices.

3. Function of DNS: A DNS server resolves domain names to IP addresses, enabling users to access websites and services using easily memorable names instead of relying on numerical IP addresses.

Thus, the correct answer is False.
