Network troubleshooting

A user reports a problem connecting to a database server. The database’s front-end application is hosted on the company web server. The network engineer changed both the network subnet on which the company servers are located and the servers’ IP addresses. The new configurations are:

  • The new server subnet is 10.10.10.64/27.
  • The web server IP address is 10.10.10.101.
  • The database server IP address is 10.10.10.93.

Which of the following is the most likely cause of the user’s issue?

Explanation

The 10.10.10.64/27 network covers addresses 10.10.10.64 through 10.10.10.95, with usable host addresses from 10.10.10.65 to 10.10.10.94. The database server address, 10.10.10.93, is within that subnet, whereas the web server address, 10.10.10.101, is not. The web server therefore does not have an IP address in the stated server subnet.
