CompTIA A+ Core 2 (220-1002) — Question 232

Which of the following is the MOST common method of allowing outside access through a wireless SOHO router for specific program access?

Answer options

• A. Enabling port forwarding
• B. Create a content filter whitelist
• C. Increasing radio power levels
• D. Properly placing access points

Correct answer: A

Explanation

Enabling port forwarding is the correct answer because it directs specific traffic from the outside to designated devices inside the network, facilitating access for certain programs. The other options do not provide a method for external access to specific applications; a content filter whitelist restricts access, increasing radio power levels improves signal strength, and proper placement of access points optimizes coverage, but none of these enable program-specific access.
