A technician is setting up a new workstation that requires a direct connection to the company's local area network. The network configuration in the office mandates manually assigned parameters for each device. Which configuration should the technician apply to ensure the workstation communicates effectively with other devices?
Manually configure the device’s network address, subnet parameters, gateway route, and DNS reference.
Set the workstation to retrieve network addressing details automatically.
Enable the workstation’s network discovery options.
Activate a connection to a secure network tunnel for privacy.
Adjust the firewall settings to allow for automatic detection of network devices.
Selecting a manually assigned network configuration is necessary to match the office's policy for network parameters. This entails specifying the exact numeric identifiers for the workstation, including the numerical label of the device in the network, the network mask, the path to the default network gateway, and the numeric address of the DNS resource. Opting for automatic acquisition of these details via DHCP would not be appropriate in an environment that does not support or allow for automatic assignments. Other options like enabling specific network protocols or activating indirect network settings do not directly address the requirement for manually assigned network parameters.
