A network technician is troubleshooting a workstation that cannot communicate with servers on remote subnets. The technician executes `ipconfig` on the workstation and observes the following network settings:
text
IPv4 Address. . . . . . . . . . . : 192.168.1.50
Subnet Mask . . . . . . . . . . . : 255.255.255.0
Default Gateway . . . . . . . . . : 192.168.2.1
The workstation can ping local host , but all outbound traffic to external networks fails. Which of the following is the root cause of the connectivity failure?
- The default gateway is configured on a different IP subnet than the host.Cevap
- BThe host has assigned itself an APIPA address because DHCP leasing failed.
- CThe default gateway IP address is unusable because it is a network broadcast address.
- DThe host and default gateway cannot communicate due to a missing VLAN tagging protocol on the network adapter.
Cevap
The default gateway is configured on a different IP subnet than the host.
For a host device to send traffic outside its local network, its configured default gateway must be an IP address located on the same IP subnet. The host is configured with , but the gateway is set to . Because they reside on different subnets, the host cannot ARP for the gateway's MAC address, preventing all traffic destined for remote networks.
