CompTIA A+ Core 2 (220-1102) — Question 362

During a network outage, a technician discovers a new network switch that was not listed in the support documentation. The switch was installed during a recent change window when a new office was added to the environment. Which of the following would most likely prevent this type of mismatch after next month's change window?

Answer options

• A. Performing annual network topology reviews
• B. Requiring all network changes include updating the network diagrams
• C. Allowing network changes once per year
• D. Routinely backing up switch configuration files

Correct answer: B

Explanation

The correct answer, B, emphasizes the importance of updating network diagrams whenever changes are made, ensuring that all network components are documented. A is less effective because annual reviews may not capture real-time changes. C is impractical as it restricts necessary updates, and D, while beneficial for recovery, does not address documentation of network changes.
