CompTIA A+ Core 2 (220-1202) — Question 116
Users are reporting that an unsecured network is broadcasting with the same name as the normal wireless network. They are able to access the internet but cannot connect to the file share servers. Which of the following best describes this issue?
Answer options
- A. Unreachable DNS server
- B. Virtual local area network misconfiguration
- C. Incorrect IP address
- D. Rogue wireless access point
Correct answer: D
Explanation
The presence of a rogue wireless access point is the most likely cause of the issue, as it can mimic the legitimate network and allow internet access while blocking access to specific resources like file shares. The other options do not accurately describe the scenario where users can connect to the internet but face issues with internal resources.
