Joe, a user, has a computer that has a link light on his network interface card (NIC); however, Joe
is unable to access the Internet. Which of the following is the cause of this issue?
A.
Faulty GBIC
B.
Faulty SFP
C.
Cable is a crossover
D.
VLAN mismatch
Explanation:
As user has link light on NIC that means he has connectivity with switch so he need to check his
vlan assignment.
This Question/Scenario is So VAGUE… it’s Laughable.
Maybe “JOE” hasn’t even turned ON his computer.
Or maybe he doesn’t even have an ip address.
or maybe he doesn’t have any drivers Loaded for his NIC.
But. NO,
the answer must be “D” because Answers a,b,c all imply physical connection issues that we rule out because there is a LINK lIGHT.
HELL, Answer D could have also said: “BEcause the INTERNET Blew UP”.
This answer would also be acceptable.
