CompTIA A+ Core 1 (220-1001) — Question 387

Which of the following services provides the ability to resolve UNC to appropriate IP addresses?

Answer options

• A. DNS
• B. DHCP
• C. Proxy
• D. Web server

Correct answer: A

Explanation

The correct answer is A, DNS, as it translates domain names and UNC paths to their respective IP addresses. DHCP, while it assigns IP addresses to devices on a network, does not resolve UNC paths. A Proxy acts as an intermediary for requests and a Web server hosts web content, neither of which resolve UNC to IP addresses.
