A network administrator is setting up a file server that will be accessed by 200 employees. A junior technician suggests using DHCP for the server's IP address for easier management. The administrator insists on a static IP. Which argument BEST justifies the static IP requirement for a server?

• A.Static IPs are required by security policy because DHCP servers are vulnerable to DHCP starvation attacks that could deny the server an IP
• B.DHCP cannot assign IPs to server-class hardware; DHCP is limited to workstations and mobile devices by protocol design
• C.Servers should use static IPs because DNS A records and application configurations reference the server by IP - if the DHCP lease expires and the server gets a different IP, DNS entries become stale and clients lose connectivity; static IPs ensure the server is always reachable at the same predictable address without DNS propagation delays
