A small company has the following IP addressing strategy:A user is unable to connect to...

If the user cannot communicate with 192.168.10.1, they might be on a different subnet. Changing the subnet mask to 255.255.255.0 ensures the user and the file server are in the same subnet.

Breakdown of Options:

A. Changing the IPv4 address to 192.168.10.1 – This would conflict with the server's IP.

B. Changing the subnet mask to 255.255.255.0 – ✅ Correct answer. Ensures both the user and the server are on the same subnet.

C. Changing the DNS servers – DNS does not affect local network connectivity.

D. Changing the physical address – The MAC address does not impact subnet communication.
