Troubleshooting

A server administrator is finishing an OS installation for a new server. The administrator updates the server with the latest vendor-recommended software, configures DHCP, and confirms that all network cables in the IDF are correctly connected, but network connectivity is still unavailable. Which of the following is the MOST likely cause of the lack of connectivity?

Explanation

A switch port assigned to the wrong VLAN, or configured with an incompatible VLAN mode, can isolate the server from its intended network and prevent normal connectivity. DNS problems affect hostname resolution, not underlying network access.
