Question 470

The action Set ipv4.method manual with address/gateway using nmcli connection modify on the correct connection, then activate it. was applied for this goal: A NetworkManager-managed Ethernet connection must retain its static IPv4 address after restart. Which observation provides the most direct acceptance evidence?

  1. After reconnect, the resolver query uses the intended DNS server and persists across restart.
  2. nmcli connection show reports the saved manual IPv4 settings and the interface retains the address after restart.
  3. The workstation reconnects automatically to the authorized SSID after reboot.
  4. networkctl status reports the intended address/gateway on the managed interface after restart.

Explanation

Correct Answer

B:

nmcli connection show reports the saved manual IPv4 settings and the interface retains the address after restart. This checks the effect of Set ipv4.method manual with address/gateway using nmcli connection modify on the correct connection, then activate it. against the stated operational goal.

Incorrect Answers

A:

That observation checks A corporate client must send DNS queries to a new resolver persistently under NetworkManager. In this scenario it does not demonstrate Set ipv4.method manual with address/gateway using nmcli connection modify on the correct connection, then activate it.; the relevant evidence must establish nmcli connection show reports the saved manual IPv4 settings and the interface retains the address after restart.

C:

That observation checks A workstation Wi-Fi profile must join a secured SSID automatically after reboot. In this scenario it does not demonstrate Set ipv4.method manual with address/gateway using nmcli connection modify on the correct connection, then activate it.; the relevant evidence must establish nmcli connection show reports the saved manual IPv4 settings and the interface retains the address after restart.

D:

That observation checks A small host uses systemd-networkd, not NetworkManager, for its persistent wired network configuration. In this scenario it does not demonstrate Set ipv4.method manual with address/gateway using nmcli connection modify on the correct connection, then activate it.; the relevant evidence must establish nmcli connection show reports the saved manual IPv4 settings and the interface retains the address after restart.

Question 471

During validation, this problem was found: An ip addr add command changes only the running interface and disappears at reconnect. The original goal was: A NetworkManager-managed Ethernet connection must retain its static IPv4 address after restart. Which targeted correction best resolves it?

  1. Change the managed connection DNS setting instead of an ephemeral generated resolver file.
  2. Persist the hostname through hostnamectl or the distribution's hostname configuration.
  3. Modify the persistent NetworkManager connection profile rather than only the kernel's live interface state.
  4. Configure the search domain on the persistent network profile and verify expansion.

Explanation

Correct Answer

C:

Modify the persistent NetworkManager connection profile rather than only the kernel's live interface state. It directly addresses the observed symptom: An ip addr add command changes only the running interface and disappears at reconnect. The relevant mechanism is NetworkManager connection profiles persist the configuration and can reapply it at activation.

Incorrect Answers

A:

This fix is aimed at Editing generated /etc/resolv.conf is overwritten when NetworkManager reactivates the connection. and would be relevant if A corporate client must send DNS queries to a new resolver persistently under NetworkManager. The incident instead states An ip addr add command changes only the running interface and disappears at reconnect. and needs Modify the persistent NetworkManager connection profile rather than only the kernel's live interface state.

B:

This fix is aimed at A temporary hostname command succeeds but the name reverts after reboot. and would be relevant if The system's static hostname must survive reboot and be reported consistently to utilities. The incident instead states An ip addr add command changes only the running interface and disappears at reconnect. and needs Modify the persistent NetworkManager connection profile rather than only the kernel's live interface state.

D:

This fix is aimed at The configured DNS server is reachable but a short hostname fails without its expected search suffix. and would be relevant if A machine must use a stable DNS search domain for unqualified internal hostnames under NetworkManager. The incident instead states An ip addr add command changes only the running interface and disappears at reconnect. and needs Modify the persistent NetworkManager connection profile rather than only the kernel's live interface state.

Question 472

A Linux administrator faces this requirement: A workstation Wi-Fi profile must join a secured SSID automatically after reboot. Which specific action is the best direct solution?

  1. Add the entry in /etc/hosts and confirm the hosts source precedes DNS in nsswitch.conf.
  2. Use hostnamectl set-hostname newname on a systemd host.
  3. Ensure the hosts line in /etc/nsswitch.conf orders files before dns as appropriate.
  4. Configure a NetworkManager Wi-Fi connection with the correct SSID, security and autoconnect properties.

Explanation

Correct Answer

D:

Configure a NetworkManager Wi-Fi connection with the correct SSID, security and autoconnect properties. The mechanism is: NetworkManager can persist wireless credentials and connection autostart separately from transient scans.

Incorrect Answers

A:

Add the entry in /etc/hosts and confirm the hosts source precedes DNS in nsswitch.conf. That operation is designed for the different case: A local application must resolve a special test hostname to a fixed IP before public DNS lookup according to host resolution policy. It does not perform the specific action required here: Configure a NetworkManager Wi-Fi connection with the correct SSID, security and autoconnect properties.

B:

Use hostnamectl set-hostname newname on a systemd host. That operation is designed for the different case: The system's static hostname must survive reboot and be reported consistently to utilities. It does not perform the specific action required here: Configure a NetworkManager Wi-Fi connection with the correct SSID, security and autoconnect properties.

C:

Ensure the hosts line in /etc/nsswitch.conf orders files before dns as appropriate. That operation is designed for the different case: A host must consult local files before DNS for resolving service hostnames. It does not perform the specific action required here: Configure a NetworkManager Wi-Fi connection with the correct SSID, security and autoconnect properties.

Question 473

The engineer proposes this implementation: Configure a NetworkManager Wi-Fi connection with the correct SSID, security and autoconnect properties. The requirement is: A workstation Wi-Fi profile must join a secured SSID automatically after reboot. Which technical explanation best supports the proposed action?

  1. NetworkManager can persist wireless credentials and connection autostart separately from transient scans.
  2. systemd-networkd reads .network units for interfaces it manages; NetworkManager profile changes may not affect such a host.
  3. The active-only view lists activated profiles, which can differ from saved profiles on the system.
  4. Resolver search domains append configured suffixes to eligible relative hostnames; they are separate from DNS server IPs.

Explanation

Correct Answer

A:

NetworkManager can persist wireless credentials and connection autostart separately from transient scans. It specifically supports the proposed action of Configure a NetworkManager Wi-Fi connection with the correct SSID, security and autoconnect properties. for the requirement described.

Incorrect Answers

B:

This explains another Linux operation, namely Configure a matching .network file under /etc/systemd/network/ and reload/reconfigure systemd-networkd., where systemd-networkd reads .network units for interfaces it manages; NetworkManager profile changes may not affect such a host. It does not explain why Configure a NetworkManager Wi-Fi connection with the correct SSID, security and autoconnect properties. satisfies the stated condition.

C:

This explains another Linux operation, namely Run nmcli connection show --active and compare with nmcli connection show., where The active-only view lists activated profiles, which can differ from saved profiles on the system. It does not explain why Configure a NetworkManager Wi-Fi connection with the correct SSID, security and autoconnect properties. satisfies the stated condition.

D:

This explains another Linux operation, namely Set ipv4.dns-search for the correct connection profile and validate resolver behavior., where Resolver search domains append configured suffixes to eligible relative hostnames; they are separate from DNS server IPs. It does not explain why Configure a NetworkManager Wi-Fi connection with the correct SSID, security and autoconnect properties. satisfies the stated condition.

Question 474

The action Configure a NetworkManager Wi-Fi connection with the correct SSID, security and autoconnect properties. was applied for this goal: A workstation Wi-Fi profile must join a secured SSID automatically after reboot. Which observation provides the most direct acceptance evidence?

  1. After reconnect, the resolver query uses the intended DNS server and persists across restart.
  2. The workstation reconnects automatically to the authorized SSID after reboot.
  3. getent hosts testname returns the expected local IP even if DNS lacks the name.
  4. The intended profile becomes active at boot, with the expected IP and gateway.

Explanation

Correct Answer

B:

The workstation reconnects automatically to the authorized SSID after reboot. This checks the effect of Configure a NetworkManager Wi-Fi connection with the correct SSID, security and autoconnect properties. against the stated operational goal.

Incorrect Answers

A:

That observation checks A corporate client must send DNS queries to a new resolver persistently under NetworkManager. In this scenario it does not demonstrate Configure a NetworkManager Wi-Fi connection with the correct SSID, security and autoconnect properties.; the relevant evidence must establish The workstation reconnects automatically to the authorized SSID after reboot.

C:

That observation checks A local application must resolve a special test hostname to a fixed IP before public DNS lookup according to host resolution policy. In this scenario it does not demonstrate Configure a NetworkManager Wi-Fi connection with the correct SSID, security and autoconnect properties.; the relevant evidence must establish The workstation reconnects automatically to the authorized SSID after reboot.

D:

That observation checks A network interface has two saved profiles with different IPv4 settings; production uses the wrong profile on boot. In this scenario it does not demonstrate Configure a NetworkManager Wi-Fi connection with the correct SSID, security and autoconnect properties.; the relevant evidence must establish The workstation reconnects automatically to the authorized SSID after reboot.

Question 475

During validation, this problem was found: Only a manual iw scan was performed; no saved connection was created. The original goal was: A workstation Wi-Fi profile must join a secured SSID automatically after reboot. Which targeted correction best resolves it?

  1. Persist the hostname through hostnamectl or the distribution's hostname configuration.
  2. Modify the persistent NetworkManager connection profile rather than only the kernel's live interface state.
  3. Create or edit a persistent authenticated Wi-Fi profile and enable autoconnect.
  4. Configure the search domain on the persistent network profile and verify expansion.

Explanation

Correct Answer

C:

Create or edit a persistent authenticated Wi-Fi profile and enable autoconnect. It directly addresses the observed symptom: Only a manual iw scan was performed; no saved connection was created. The relevant mechanism is NetworkManager can persist wireless credentials and connection autostart separately from transient scans.

Incorrect Answers

A:

This fix is aimed at A temporary hostname command succeeds but the name reverts after reboot. and would be relevant if The system's static hostname must survive reboot and be reported consistently to utilities.

Question 476

A Linux administrator faces this requirement: The system's static hostname must survive reboot and be reported consistently to utilities. Which specific action is the best direct solution?

  1. Adjust the correct NetworkManager connection's autoconnect behavior and priority, then activate it.
  2. Ensure the hosts line in /etc/nsswitch.conf orders files before dns as appropriate.
  3. Set ipv4.dns on the appropriate NetworkManager connection profile and reactivate it.
  4. Use hostnamectl set-hostname newname on a systemd host.

Explanation

Correct Answer

D:

Use hostnamectl set-hostname newname on a systemd host. The mechanism is: hostnamectl persists the configured static hostname while the hostname shell command can display or set transient state.

Incorrect Answers

A:

Adjust the correct NetworkManager connection's autoconnect behavior and priority, then activate it. That operation is designed for the different case: A network interface has two saved profiles with different IPv4 settings; production uses the wrong profile on boot. It does not perform the specific action required here: Use hostnamectl set-hostname newname on a systemd host.

Question 479

During validation, this problem was found: A temporary hostname command succeeds but the name reverts after reboot. The original goal was: The system's static hostname must survive reboot and be reported consistently to utilities. Which targeted correction best resolves it?

  1. Set hosts: files dns in nsswitch.conf subject to system resolver policy.
  2. Edit the systemd-networkd unit for the matching interface and apply it safely.
  3. Persist the hostname through hostnamectl or the distribution's hostname configuration.
  4. Identify the active connection profile and modify that specific entry.

Explanation

Correct Answer

C:

Persist the hostname through hostnamectl or the distribution's hostname configuration. It directly addresses the observed symptom: A temporary hostname command succeeds but the name reverts after reboot. The relevant mechanism is hostnamectl persists the configured static hostname while the hostname shell command can display or set transient state.

Incorrect Answers

A:

This fix is aimed at NSS is configured dns files and unexpectedly ignores the desired local override. and would be relevant if A host must consult local files before DNS for resolving service hostnames. The incident instead states A temporary hostname command succeeds but the name reverts after reboot. and needs Persist the hostname through hostnamectl or the distribution's hostname configuration.

B:

This fix is aimed at An nmcli command edits a nonexistent or unmanaged profile, leaving the interface unchanged. and would be relevant if A small host uses systemd-networkd, not NetworkManager, for its persistent wired network configuration. The incident instead states A temporary hostname command succeeds but the name reverts after reboot. and needs Persist the hostname through hostnamectl or the distribution's hostname configuration.

D:

This fix is aimed at The operator edits an inactive duplicate profile while the active one retains wrong settings. and would be relevant if An operator needs to inspect all NetworkManager connection profiles and identify which one is active. The incident instead states A temporary hostname command succeeds but the name reverts after reboot. and needs Persist the hostname through hostnamectl or the distribution's hostname configuration.
