Question 260
At the Silverport multisite corporate network, a laptop communicates with same-subnet peers but fails to reach the intended gateway after a static IP change. How should the organization sustain the improvement?
Explanation
Correct Answer
The continuing safeguard is to audit DHCP reservations and static address exceptions after desk moves. It helps avoid the original condition: an invalid mask or gateway can direct off-subnet packets to an unreachable destination. This result addresses the stated challenge at the Silverport multisite corporate network.
Incorrect Answers
improper physical negotiation or defective medium can corrupt Ethernet frames despite an up state. The offered alternative applies that mechanism: Track CRC trends and replace suspect cables when errors recur. The reported facts point to a different controlling condition: an invalid mask or gateway can direct off-subnet packets to an unreachable destination. The alternative does not directly settle the required recurrence control.
Forecast traffic growth using busy-hour baselines. Its technical scope is explained by: a congested shared uplink can delay many otherwise healthy endpoint flows, the required evidence must show that an approved capacity change reduces peak utilization and queue drops. In this question, the decisive issue is: an invalid mask or gateway can direct off-subnet packets to an unreachable destination. That is why the offered option is not the most direct recurrence control.
Monitor peak queue usage and burst indicators. This option is based on the following distinct technical behavior: it requires the team to monitor peak queue usage and burst indicators. The present question instead depends on this mechanism: an invalid mask or gateway can direct off-subnet packets to an unreachable destination. That difference matters for the requested recurrence control.
