CompTIA A+ Core 2 (220-1102) — Question 405

A systems administrator received a request to limit the amount of cellular data a user's Windows 10 tablet can utilize when traveling. Which of the following can the administrator do to best solve the user's issue?

Answer options

• A. Turn on airplane mode.
• B. Set the connection to be metered.
• C. Configure the device to use a static IP address.
• D. Enable the Windows Defender Firewall.

Correct answer: B

Explanation

Setting the connection to be metered allows the user to control data usage by limiting background data and updates on their Windows 10 tablet, making it the best solution. Turning on airplane mode (Option A) would disable all wireless communication, which is not a practical solution for a user needing to use cellular data. Configuring a static IP address (Option C) is unrelated to data usage limits, and enabling the Windows Defender Firewall (Option D) is a security measure that does not affect data consumption.
