CompTIA Network+ (N10-009) — Question 320

An ISP provided a company with a pre-configured modem and five public static IP addresses. Which of the following does the company's firewall require to access the internet? (Choose two.)

Answer options

• A. NTP server
• B. Default gateway
• C. The modem’s IP address
• D. One static IP address
• E. DNS servers
• F. DHCP server

Correct answer: B, D

Explanation

The firewall needs a Default gateway to route traffic to the internet and one static IP address for its own identification on the network. The other options, while useful, are not strictly necessary for internet access by the firewall.
