98-365 Exam - Question 73


The owner of Fourth Coffee wants to add a new computer to the company network. The owner configures the Host Address for the computer but still cannot connect to the network.

Which component should the owner use to connect to the network?

Show Answer
Correct Answer: C

To connect to a network, a device needs the correct IP configuration, which includes an IP address, subnet mask, and default gateway. The subnet mask is essential because it determines which portion of the IP address represents the network and which part represents the host, enabling proper communication within the network. Without a properly configured subnet mask, the device will be unable to communicate with other devices on the network. Therefore, the owner should configure the subnet mask in addition to the host address.

How the owner has configured the IP add without a subnet mask?

This question is not too clearly, should be more precise in networking so that it points to subnet mask.
