Selected Answer: D
B and C are irrelevant to the topic. A - A rogue DHCP server would be handing out addresses from outside to APIPA range, which would most likely cause IP Conflict, which is when 2 or more devices on the same network shares the same IP Address. D is correct because when you run out of Addresses to hand out, the DHCP can't do anything and so APIPA takes over and hands out an random address from within the APIPA range.
