A technician is troubleshooting an issue with communication to another server at a remote location. Which of the following tools should the technician use to help troubleshoot the traffic to and…

Net use allows a technician to attempt a connection to a remote server share, verify that the network path is reachable, and identify whether the failure is due to a network routing issue, a credential problem, or server unavailability. By attempting to map or connect to a remote resource with net use, the technician gets immediate feedback on whether the communication channel to the remote server is functional.

Nslookup queries DNS name resolution and cannot test whether a network connection to a remote server is functional or diagnose traffic-level communication failures.

A port scanner identifies open or closed ports on a host but does not verify active communication paths or help diagnose why a specific server is unreachable.

A sniffer captures raw network packets for deep traffic analysis and is more complex to use - it is not the primary first-line tool for verifying basic connectivity to a specific remote server.
