A workstation can ping the file server by address and cannot ping it by name. Other tests to that address succeed. Which service is failing?
Select an answer to reveal the explanation.
Short Explanation
The workstation already knows the way to the server's address, and it cannot turn the name into that address. You are looking at DNS. The mask, the link light, and a printer cartridge are not the name lookup.
Full Explanation
Ping by address proves the path to the server. Ping by name fails when the workstation cannot resolve that name, which is a DNS failure. The subnet mask is already allowing the address ping, so it is not hiding the server. The link is up, because the address ping succeeds. A dark link light would stop both tests. Toner has nothing to do with name resolution. Exam caveat: a wrong DNS server and a missing record look the same from the workstation. Check which server it is asking, then whether that server has the name. Operational check: query the name, confirm the address that comes back matches the one you can ping, and fix the record or the DNS server setting. If the address that comes back is wrong, fix the record before you change the workstation's mask.
