To properly track hosts in a network using Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP), the active scan setting known as "DHCP Snooping" should be enabled. This feature helps prevent unauthorized DHCP servers from providing IP addresses and ensures that only valid DHCP responses are processed. By maintaining a trusted database of IP addresses and corresponding MAC addresses, DHCP Snooping enhances network security and improves the accuracy of IP address tracking.
