Question

Andrew opens a terminal to investigate user reports that some users are able to get to the intranet homepage while others are not. He is able to determine that some of them are using URLs beginning with intranet.contoso.com while others are using www.intranet.contoso.com. After pulling up the command prompt he verifies that they resolve to different IP addresses. Which of the following services running on an internal Linux server does he need to check the configuration to correct this problem?

a.DNS

b.NTP

c.DHCP

d.HTTP

Answer 1

Solution: Option C is the correct option as the Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol or DHCP which is responsible for dynamically assigning the IP addresses to the devices on a particular network so that it can be reached by another device over the network. So if a device is not able to reach the device over the internet due to the IP is not able to resolve to a particular IP over the network, then the analyst has to configure the DHCP in accordance with the problem to resolve this issue over the network.
