• Question 784:

  Which of the following change management practices lists all the changes that are taking place for a project to ensure that no unexpected changes happen?

  A. Risk analysis
  B. Scope
  C. Rollbackplan
  D. Review
  B. Scope

  ---

  Explanation

  In change management, the scope of a project lists all the changes that are taking place. The scope ensures that all team members understand the boundaries and extent of the project, helping to prevent unexpected changes. Here's a

  Scope: Defines the project's boundaries and deliverables, including all the planned changes. It ensures that everyone involved understands what is included and excluded in the project, minimizing unexpected changes. Risk analysis:

  Identifies potential risks and their impact but does not list the changes.

  Rollback plan: Provides a strategy for reverting changes if something goes wrong but does not list changes.

  Review: Involves evaluating changes but does not compile the list of changes.

• Question 785:

  A user reports that a device with a statically defined IP is unable to connect to the internet. The technician runs the ipconfig /all command and sees the following output:

  IPv4 Address............ 192.168.0.74

  Subnet Mask. ...........255.255.255.255

  Default Gateway......... 192.168.0.1

  Which of the following is most likely the reason for the issue?

  A. The default gateway is up.
  B. The user has an APIPA IP address.
  C. The IP address is on the wrong subnet
  D. The subnet mask is incorrect.
  D. The subnet mask is incorrect.

  ---

  Explanation

  The ipconfig /all output shows the following:

  IPv4 Address............ 192.168.0.74

  Subnet Mask............. 255.255.255.255

  Default Gateway......... 192.168.0.1

  The issue with the subnet mask being set to 255.255.255.255 is that it specifies a single host subnet, meaning the device cannot communicate with other devices on the network or access the internet. The correct subnet mask for a typical

  home network should be:

  Subnet mask of 255.255.255.0: This allows for communication within the same local network (192.168.0.0/24).

  Default gateway 192.168.0.1: Correct, this is the typical address for the router. IPv4 Address 192.168.0.74: Correct, within the correct subnet range. Changing the subnet mask to 255.255.255.0 will resolve the connectivity issue.

• Question 788:

  A technician is installing new network equipment in a SOHO and wants to ensure the equipment is secured against external threats on the Internet. Which of the following actions should the technician do FIRST?

  A. Lock all devices in a closet.
  B. Ensure all devices are from the same manufacturer.
  C. Change the default administrative password.
  D. Install the latest operating system and patches
  C. Change the default administrative password.

  ---

  Explanation

  The technician should change the default administrative password FIRST to ensure the network equipment is secured against external threats on the Internet. Changing the default administrative password is a basic security measure that can help prevent unauthorized access to the network equipment. Locking all devices in a closet is a physical security measure that can help prevent theft or damage to the devices, but it does not address external threats on the Internet. Ensuring all devices are from the same manufacturer is not a security measure and does not address external threats on the Internet. Installing the latest operating system and patches is important for maintaining the security of the network equipment, but it is not the first action the technician should take1

• Question 789:

  The web browsing speed on a customer's mobile phone slows down every few weeks and then returns to normal after three or four days. Restarting the device does not usually restore performance. Which of the following should a technician check FIRST to troubleshoot this issue?

  A. Data usage limits
  B. Wi-Fi connection speed
  C. Status of airplane mode
  D. System uptime
  B. Wi-Fi connection speed

  ---

  Explanation

  The technician should check the Wi-Fi connection speed first to troubleshoot this issue. Slow web browsing speed on a mobile phone can be caused by a slow Wi-Fi connection. The technician should check the Wi-Fi connection speed to ensure that it is fast enough to support web browsing. If the Wi-Fi connection speed is slow, the technician should troubleshoot the Wi-Fi network to identify and resolve the issue.

• Question 790:

  A technician is troubleshooting a smartphone that is unable to download and install the latest OS update. The technician notices the device operates more slowly than expected, even after rebooting and closing all applications. Which of the following should the technician check next?

  A. Application permissions
  B. Available storage space
  C. Battery charge level
  D. Wi-Fi connection speed
  B. Available storage space

  ---

  Explanation

  When a smartphone is unable to download and install the latest OS update and is operating slower than expected, one of the first things to check is the available storage space. Operating system updates often require a significant amount of free space for downloading and installing, and insufficient space can prevent the update process from initiating or completing. Available Storage Space: Smartphones use their internal storage to hold the OS, apps, user data, and temporary files needed for updates. If the storage is nearly full, the device can slow down due to the lack of space for writing temporary files and may not have enough space to download and install updates. Clearing up space can resolve these issues. Checking application permissions (A) might be relevant for specific app-related issues but is less likely to affect OS updates. The battery charge level (C) can affect the initiation of an update, as some devices require a minimum charge level to start the update process, but it doesn't typically cause slow operation. While a stable Wi-Fi connection (D) is necessary for downloading updates, it's less likely to be the cause of slowed operation and update issues compared to insufficient storage space.
