QuestionQ15

Basic Network Security Concepts

Several employees report that the company intranet site no longer accepts their login credentials. You try connecting with the URL and observe misspellings on the site. When you connect using the IP address, the site works normally.

What should you do?

Explanation

Successful access by IP address shows that the intended web server is functioning. The incorrect content reached through the URL indicates that the hostname is resolving incorrectly, so the local DNS server’s entry for the site should be checked for accuracy.
