CompTIA Network+ (N10-008) — Question 750

A new computer that was connected to the network reported an error of an Identical IP address with another computer. Both computers were configured for SLAAC. Which of the following is causing the error?

Answer options

• A. Rogue DHCP server
• B. Duplicate MAC addresses
• C. Incorrect router advertisement
• D. Wrong VLAN assignment

Correct answer: C

Explanation

The correct answer is C, as incorrect router advertisements can lead to the assignment of the same IP address to multiple devices in a network using SLAAC. The other options do not directly cause IP address conflicts in this SLAAC context, as rogue DHCP servers and duplicate MAC addresses are unrelated to SLAAC, and VLAN assignments affect network segmentation rather than IP allocation.
