CompTIA Network+ (N10-007) — Question 136
A network engineer at a large company is restricting Internet browsing on the corporate WAN to only business-related external websites. Which of the following is the BEST solution to achieve this goal while avoiding the need to configure this restriction on each PC?
Answer options
- A. Web application firewall
- B. Content filter
- C. IPS
- D. VPN concentrator
Correct answer: B
Explanation
The best solution is a Content filter because it can be applied at the network level to block non-business-related websites for all users without needing to configure each PC individually. A Web application firewall primarily protects applications rather than filtering content, an IPS focuses on intrusion prevention, and a VPN concentrator is used for secure remote access, not for content restriction.
