CompTIA Network+ (N10-008) — Question 835

A network technician has determined the cause of a network disruption. Which of the following is the NEXT step for the technician to perform?

Answer options

• A. Validate the findings in a top-to-bottom approach.
• B. Duplicate the issue, if possible.
• C. Establish a plan of action to resolve the issue.
• D. Document the findings and actions.

Correct answer: C

Explanation

The correct answer is C because after identifying the root cause, the technician should establish a plan to resolve the issue effectively. Options A and B are more about verification and replication rather than resolution, while D focuses on documentation, which is important but not the immediate next step in addressing the disruption.
