If you are using a DHCP server, you are basically safe. It's a good practice to release all ip addresses after certain time especially if you have temporary computer in the network.

Which service provides the distribution of Network layer addresses?
DHCP
What is the utility used to dynamically assign IP addresses to network devices?
dhcp
Which protocol is used to automatically configure network devices?
Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) A protocol that provides a means to dynamically allocate IP addresses to computers on a local area network. The system administrator assigns a range of IP addresses to DHCP and each client computer on the LAN has its TCP/IP software configured to request an IP address from the DHCP server. The request and grant process uses a lease concept with a controllable time period.
Which layer of the hierarchical design model provides a means of connecting devices to the network and controlling which devices are allowed to communicate on the network?
distribution
What does lpv6 offer?
More unique ip addresses, so essentially more devices on the network.
Which type of network device keeps a table of the MAC addresses of the devices connected to it?
The correct answer is switch.
Which network design layer provides connection point for end user devices to the network?
The Access Layer
Why the all zeros and all ones addresses are usually not assigned as host IP addresses?
These addresses are not assigned to devices because they have a reserved meaning. All zeroes refers to "this network", and all ones usually is assigned to a broadcast address (all devices).
What service can configure a server to provide ip addresses automatically to all the computers and other network devices on a particular network?
The DHCP service.
Who is server for dhcp?
It is what... DHCP is designed to automatically distributed IP addresses to connected to the same network devices.
What describes a public network?
Computers that are connected to each other create a network. These networks are often configured with "public" internet Protocol (IP) addresses -- that is, the devices on the network are "visible" to devices outside the network (from the Internet or another network). Networks can also be configured as "private" -- meaning that devices outside the network cannot "see" or communicate directly to them.
What provides name resolution to allow meaningful names to be used to refer to network addresses?
dns
