SK0-005 Question #407: Real Exam Question with Answer & Explanation

Question

A server technician is placing a newly configured server into a corporate environment. The server will be used by members of the accounting department, who are currently assigned by the VLAN identified below: Which of the following IP address configurations should the technician assign to the new server so the members of the accounting group can access the server?

Options

• AIP address: 172.16.25.90/24
• BIP address: 172.16.25.101/16
• CIP address: 172.16.25.254/24
• DIP address: 172.16.26.101/24

Explanation

The IP address configuration that the technician should assign to the new server so the members of the accounting group can access the server is 172.16.25.90/24 for the IP address and 172.16.25.254 for the default gateway. This configuration matches the VLAN identified in the image, which has a network address of 172.16.25.0/24 and a subnet mask of 255.255.255.0. The IP address of the server must be within the same network range as the VLAN, which is from 172.16.25.1 to 172.16.25.254, excluding the network and broadcast addresses (172.16.25.0 and 172.16.25.255). The default gateway of the server must be the same as the VLAN, which is 172.16.25.254, to allow communication with other networks or devices outside the VLAN.
