If a workstation can connect to the internet but not to internal network resources, the most likely cause of the issue is a rogue DHCP server. A rogue DHCP server can provide the workstation with an incorrect IP address, subnet mask, or default gateway that allows internet connectivity while preventing access to the internal network. An unreachable DNS server would affect both internal and external connectivity, hence B is the most appropriate option.
NAT is to allow private networks to communicate with the internet using a limited number of public IP addresses. while setting up Printers in my office, it does take DNS address. so i guess answer should be C. unreachable DNS
A) Wrong - with APIPA address you can't connect to the Internet B) Correct - there is a possibility that workstation received IP address and default gateway from the rogue DHCP. In that case Internet access works, however access to internal resources is prohibited. C) Wrong - if the DNS would be unreachable, connectivity to the Internet resources would not be possible D) Wrong - NAT settings has nothing to do with accessing internal resources. With incorrect nat settings connectivity to the Internet resources would not work, but it's no the case in the example
Going to have to go with C. I would say the safest bet is to say internal DNS servers could be at play.
d for sure
I think is D.

A NAT error is more likely to cause this issue. If the NAT configuration doesn't properly map the workstation's internal IP address to the public IP address used for internet access, the workstation might be able to access the internet but not communicate with internal resources on the private network.
