An employee at XYZ Corporation reports they can't reach the company's internal departmental servers from their new desk location. Initial checks confirm active network connectivity on the workstation. Further investigation shows that the network port configuration doesn't match the requirements for the departmental resources access. What is the most effective step to address this issue?
Replace the existing server with one that supports automatic network segment detection.
Reboot the workstation and the network switch to reset the network connection.
Reconfigure the network port to associate with the department-specific segment.
Inspect and swap out the patch cables connecting the workstation to the network port.
