CompTIA Network+ (N10-008) — Question 483

A customer has an attached USB printer that needs to be shared with other users. The desktop team set up printer sharing. Now, the network technician needs to obtain the necessary information about the PC and share it with other users so they can connect to the printer. Which of the following commands should the technician use to get the required information? (Choose two.)

Answer options

• A. arp
• B. route
• C. netstat
• D. tcpdump
• E. hostname
• F. ipconfig

Correct answer: E, F

Explanation

The correct commands are 'hostname' and 'ipconfig'. 'hostname' provides the name of the computer, which is essential for users to connect, while 'ipconfig' shows the IP address and other network configuration details needed for printer access. The other options, such as 'arp', 'route', 'netstat', and 'tcpdump', do not provide the relevant information needed for printer sharing.
