Question 680
A network specialist investigates this evidence: A workstation on access port 9 receives 10.50.20.0/24 addresses but belongs to sales VLAN 30. Which underlying condition BEST explains the observed failure or requirement?
Explanation
Correct Answer
Its port is assigned to the wrong access VLAN. Port membership selects the subnet's broadcast and DHCP environment.
Incorrect Answers
IP routing depends on a route to the destination prefix and a reachable next hop. That does not establish frame admission and MAC learning on the affected access port.
VLAN membership and 802.1Q tagging determine which Layer 2 broadcast domain carries each frame. The missing change involves its port is assigned to the wrong access VLAN.
The oversized mask causes an incorrect on-link decision. That does not establish frame admission and MAC learning on the affected access port.
