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. The servers cannot connect to the Internet, but they can reach themselves. The engineer observes that the distribution switch has the following setup:
The engineer is able to reach the core router 192.168.17.1 from the distribution switch. Which of the following is the most likely cause of this issue?
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.
