You are the desktop administrator for your company. The relevant portion of the company’s network is configured as shown in the exhibit.
Bruno is a user in the accounting department. Bruno uses a new Windows XP Professional computer. Bruno reports that he cannot access Web sites on the Internet by using Internet Explorer.
However, he can access intranet Web sites that are located on other network subnets by using Internet Explorer. Other users on the network can successfully access Internet Web sites.
You need to ensure that Bruno can access Internet Web sites by using Internet Explorer on his computer.
What should you do?
A.
Configure Internet Explorer on Bruno’s computer to use the proxy server.
B.
Configure Internet Explorer on Bruno’s computer to permit SSL connections.
C.
Configure TCP/IP on Bruno’s computer to use 192. 168. 10. 57 as the default gateway.
D.
Configure TCP/IP on Bruno’s computer to use 192. 168. 10. 56 for DNS name resolution.
Explanation:
The fact that he can access Web sites on the intranet tells us that there is not anything wrong with the IE. The intranet is shielded from the Internet with a firewall and the LAN contains a Proxy Server. It is not stated in the question, but it is common practice to configure all browsing to use a proxy server if there is a proxy server and a firewall on your network. There is 2 possible causes for this problem, either it is a wrong configured default gateway in the TCP/IP settings or a wrong or missing Proxy server configuration. The first possible cause is not an option here so the right answer has to be Option A.
