CompTIA Server+ (SK0-005) — Question 316

An administrator needs to perform bare-metal maintenance on a server in a remote datacenter. Which of the following should the administrator use to access the server's console?

Answer options

• A. IP KVM
• B. VNC
• C. A crash cart
• D. RDP
• E. SSH

Correct answer: A

Explanation

The correct choice is IP KVM because it allows remote access to a server's console, which is essential for bare-metal maintenance. VNC, RDP, and SSH require an operating system to be running on the server, while a crash cart is a physical tool that does not provide remote access.
