Dock workers at a logistics hub fail to reach the yard application only while they are on the loading network, and the same test succeeds from the office LAN. Where should the agent go?
Select an answer to reveal the explanation.
Short Explanation
A broken loading door is invisible from the downtown office. You place the agent at the dock, on the loading network the workers use when they fail. A cloud probe, a headquarters closet, and a laptop in the dispatch office are all off that network.
Full Explanation
Dock workers fail only while they are on the loading network and succeed from the office LAN, so the agent belongs at the dock on that loading network. The office result shows the yard application is reachable from a different LAN, which leaves the dock path untested until an agent sits there. A cloud probe on the public Internet is far from the loading network and does not include the dock failure. An agent only in the headquarters closet uses a path the dock workers do not traverse, so it can succeed while the dock fails. A laptop in the dispatch office is off the loading-network path and reports the office instead of the workers at the dock. The Internet probe, the closet, and the dispatch laptop are all outside the network where the yard application fails. Exam caveat: a working test from the office does not clear the network where the workers actually fail. Operational check: run the yard-application test from the loading network and from the office LAN, and confirm only the dock vantage fails.
