A systems administrator is setting up a server farm for a new company. The company has a public range of IP addresses and uses the addresses internally. Which of the following IP addresses best fits this scenario?
The IP address 216.176.128.10 falls within the range of public IP addresses, which are routable over the Internet. Since the company is using a public range of IP addresses internally, this address is suitable for the scenario. In contrast, 10.3.7.27 and 192.168.7.1 are private IP addresses typically used within internal networks and not routable on the public Internet. 127.0.0.1 is known as the loopback address, used by a computer to communicate with itself and not suitable for assigning to devices within a network.
A systems administrator is provisioning a large number of virtual Linux machines that will be configured identically. The administrator would like to configure the machines quickly and easily but does not have access to an automation/orchestration platform. Additionally, the administrator would like to set up a system that can be used in the future, even on newer versions of the OS. Which of the following will best meet the administrator's requirements?
Why other options are less ideal:
VM Template (A):Templates are useful for replicating the OS & some software, but might not capture all configurations.
Manual Configuration (C):Time-consuming and prone to errors when replicating across many servers.
Copy/Paste via SSH (D):Tedious, error-prone, and requires servers to be online before configuration.
Cloning (E):Can work but has version compatibility risks if the OS of the cloned server isn't identical to the new ones.
A user can successfully connect to a database server from a home office but is unable to access it from a hotel room. Which of the following authentication methods is most likely
configured?
Scope-based authentication is a method of restricting access to resources based on the location, network, or device of the user. It can be used to prevent unauthorized access from outside the organization's network or from untrusted devices. In this case, the user can connect to the database server from the home office, which is likely within the scope of the authentication policy, but not from the hotel room, which is outside the scope.

A server administrator is reviewing the following specifications:
VM01 Host:
CPU: 2 Physical, 4 Cores
RAM: 16GB
Storage: 16TB
Server 1 on VM01:
CPU: 1 virtual socket, 1 core per socket
RAM: 4GB
Storage: 8TB
Server 2 on VM01:
CPU: 2 virtual sockets, 2 cores per socket
RAM: 8GB
Storage: 10TB
Which of the following is described given these specifications?
Overprovisioning is a situation where the allocated resources for a virtual machine exceed the available resources of the physical host. In this case, the storage allocated for Server 1 and Server 2 on VM01 is 8TB and 10TB respectively, which adds up to 18TB. However, the storage available on the VM01 host is only 16TB, which means there is a 2TB deficit. This can cause performance issues and errors for the virtual machines.

A server administrator deployed a new product that uses a non-standard port for web access on port 8443. However, users are unable to access the new
application. The server administrator checks firewall rules and determines 8443 is allowed. Which of the following is most likely the cause of the issue?
A DNS entry is a record that maps a domain name to an IP address. If the DNS entry for the new application is incorrect, users will not be able to resolve the domain name to the correct IP address and port number. This will prevent them from accessing the application, even if the firewall rules allow port 8443. To fix this issue, the server administrator should verify and update the DNS entry for the new application.
