CompTIA A+ 220-1101 Practice Question

An employee's workstation is unable to access network resources and the troubleshooting process reveals the machine has been assigned an address starting with 169.254. Based on this information, what is the most likely cause of the networking issue?

  • The network’s DHCP service is not available or malfunctioning, leading to the workstation assigning itself an APIPA address.

  • Another DHCP server is issuing incorrect settings to network clients.

  • The workstation has been manually set with a static address outside the designated network range.

  • The workstation’s network mask setting is preventing it from communicating on the local network.
