A user's workstation is assigned the static IP address with a subnet mask of (/24). The user can successfully communicate with other devices on the local subnet, but cannot access any remote subnets or external websites. Running diagnostic checks shows that the workstation's default gateway is configured as . Which of the following is the root cause of the gateway connectivity failure?
- The configured default gateway address resides on a different IP subnet than the workstation.Cevap
- BThe workstation has been assigned a broadcast address rather than a valid usable host address.
- CThe default gateway router port is rejecting traffic due to a port and protocol mismatch.
- DThe workstation traffic is being blocked by an implicit deny rule on the local switch port.
Cevap
The configured default gateway address resides on a different IP subnet than the workstation.
For a host to communicate with remote networks, its default gateway IP address must be an IP address located on the same local subnet. Because and are on separate subnets, local ARP requests for the gateway fail and traffic destined outside the subnet cannot be routed.
