CompTIA Security+ (SY0-501) — Question 447

A law office has been leasing dark fiber from a local telecommunications company to connect a remote office to company headquarters. The telecommunications company has decided to discontinue its dark fiber product and is offering an MPLS connection, which the law office feels is too expensive. Which of the following is the BEST solution for the law office?

Answer options

Correct answer: D

Explanation

The best solution is a Site-to-site VPN as it provides a secure connection between the headquarters and the remote office over the internet, making it a cost-effective alternative to MPLS. Remote access VPN is more suited for individual users, VLANs are for segmenting networks within the same location, and a VPN concentrator is used to manage multiple VPN connections but does not directly solve the connectivity issue between the two sites.
