An engineer recently installed a new distribution switch and connected two servers provisioned with the following IPs: 192.168.17.20 and 192.168.17.30.

Show Suggested Answer Hide Answer
Suggested Answer: C

The servers can communicate with each other but not the internet, indicating local network connectivity is fine. The distribution switch's VLAN and IP configuration are correct, and the engineer can reach the core router, suggesting the issue is not with the switch or the router. The most likely cause is that the servers do not have a default gateway configured, which is necessary for traffic to leave the local network and reach the internet.

The servers can reach each other, but not the internet? Sounds like a classic case of a missing default gateway.

I agree with Rosalyn. Without a default gateway, the servers won't be able to reach the Internet.

I think the most likely cause is that the servers are not configured with default gateway.
