A customer has an attached USB printer that needs to be shared with other users. The desktop team set up printer sharing. Now, the network technician needs to obtain the necessary information about the PC and share it with other users so they can connect to the printer. Which of the following commands should the technician use to get the required information? (Choose two.)
To connect to a shared network printer, the technician needs to provide the hostname and the IP configuration of the PC hosting the printer. The 'hostname' command provides the name of the computer, which is useful for identifying the PC on the network. The 'ipconfig' command provides the IP configuration details such as the IP address, subnet mask, and default gateway, which can assist other users in configuring their connections to the shared printer.
I think it is C and F, chat GPT explains for me below, please call me out if I am mistaken. To obtain the necessary information about the PC and share it with other users for connecting to the printer, you can use the following commands: C. netstat - This command can provide information about open network connections, listening ports, and other network-related details on the PC. F. ipconfig - This command displays the IP configuration of the PC, including the IP address, subnet mask, default gateway, and DNS server information. Using these commands, you can gather the relevant network information to share with other users so they can connect to the shared USB printer.
No way, netstat wont give you the specific information you need - just a lot of irrelevent noise about open connections and ports in the network. hostname (on windows) will give you the name of the machine hosting the printer.
E. hostname and F. ipconfig. The hostname command will provide the name of the computer, which is useful when setting up network shares. The ipconfig command will provide the IP address and other network configuration details of the computer. These details can be used by other users to connect to the shared printer.
E and F: ipconfig will tell them the ip address and gateway of the sharing pc and hostname will allow them to identify it by name.
Per chat GPT which I agree with To obtain the necessary information about the PC and share it with other users for connecting to the shared USB printer, the network technician should use the following commands: F. ipconfig - This command provides information about the IP configuration, including the IP address, subnet mask, and default gateway, which can help other users configure their connections to the shared printer. E. hostname - This command provides the hostname of the PC, which can be useful for identifying the PC on the network. The commands arp (A), route (B), netstat (C), and tcpdump (D) provide different types of network information but may not be directly relevant for obtaining the required information to connect to the shared printer.
EF; users need the hostname and the sharename, although they connect through the IP,
E. hostname and F. ipconfig are the answers. To connect to a shared network printer you need to know the path: \\computername\sharename computername can be a hostname or an IP address. Windows Command Line: ipconfig would get you the IP address. ipconfig /all would get you both the IP address and the hostname. hostname would get the name of the PC Windows "Run" command: \\`<hostname>` <either the PC name or the IP address> will show you the sharename for the printer. Windows Command Line: net share command would show you all the network shares Powershell: Get-SmbShare command-let would also show all the network shares I added the extra commands here to help anyone trying to learn.
E&F are true
