An administrator is adding a new department to a switch. The port for this department is mapped to the correct identifier, but the endpoints cannot reach external resources. Trunk ports connecting to upstream devices are configured for multiple identifiers. Which action is the most suitable for restoring traffic?
Implement an address translation service for the department
Add more routes on the upstream devices
Enable proper tagging on the trunk links
Use a different address scope for endpoints in the department
Configuring the correct tagging on trunk links makes the department's traffic visible beyond its local switch port. Changing address ranges, setting up additional routes, or enabling address translation does not address the issue of traffic being unrecognized if tagging parameters are missing or incorrect on the trunk links.
