CompTIA Cloud+ (CV0-002) — Question 20

A cloud implementation engineer successfully created a new VM. However, the engineer notices the new VM is not accessible from another network. A ping test works from another VM on the same subnet. Which of the following is the MOST likely problem?

Answer options

• A. Incorrect subnet
• B. Incorrect host IP address
• C. Incorrect VLAN
• D. Incorrect gateway

Correct answer: A

Explanation

The most likely issue is an Incorrect subnet, as the VM is reachable from another VM on the same subnet, indicating that inter-subnet communication may not be properly configured. The other options, such as Incorrect host IP address, Incorrect VLAN, and Incorrect gateway, do not align with the fact that the ping test was successful within the same subnet.
