D is correct, means that the router will act as a DHCP client. Should a router be set as a DHCP server commands are as follows: conf t service dhcp ip dhcp pool <pool name> network <network to be use as pool> default-router <default gateway or the ip address of the ethernet interface facing the host> dns-server <ip add of your dns server, say: 8.8.8.8 which is a google dns> exit

D. ip address dhcp To obtain an IP address dynamically from a service provider for Internet connectivity, you would use the "ip address dhcp" command on the interface. This command tells the router to request an IP address from a DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol) server, which is usually provided by the Internet service provider (ISP). DHCP is a method for devices to automatically receive network configuration settings, including IP addresses, from a central server.
