A network technician is troubleshooting connectivity issues on a newly deployed server. The server is connected directly to the switch, and all cables have been tested to confirm they are working properly. However, the server is unable to communicate on the network. Upon inspecting the switch, the technician notices that the LED indicator for the port connected to the server is not lit up. What is the MOST likely cause of this issue?
There is a duplex mismatch between the server NIC and the switch port.
The Ethernet cable is disconnected.
The switch port is faulty.
The server is assigned to the wrong VLAN.
