CompTIA A+ Core 2 (220-1102) — Question 596

A user is attempting to access a shared drive from a company-issued laptop while working from home. The user is unable to access any files and notices a red X next to each shared drive. Which of the following needs to be configured in order to restore the user's access to the shared drives?

Answer options

• A. IPv6
• B. VPN
• C. IPS
• D. DNS

Correct answer: B

Explanation

The correct answer is B, as a VPN (Virtual Private Network) creates a secure connection to the company's network, allowing access to shared drives. The other options, while important for network configuration, do not specifically address the issue of remote access to shared resources.
