Which command should be issued on the router to correct the problem?

A router has been configured to provide the nine users on the branch office LAN with Internet access, as shown in the diagram. It is found that some of the users on the LAN cannot reach the Internet. Based on the topology and router output shown, which command should be issued on the router to correct the problem?

  1. Collisions may happen. But some how internet connection will be possible in case of half duplex. The question isn’t about quality of internet connection.
    Answer is D, because /30 provides only 2 hosts, we need 9, so /28 that means max 14 hosts.

  2. Answer is D. With a /30 providing two host ip addresses ( One of which will be used on router interface), 8 of the 9 PCs will inevitably have to be assigned ip addresses that reside on a different subnet. This means zero connectivity to router interface.

  3. But it states some of the users cannot reach the internet. It doesnt say intermittently which would allow consideration of the collisions. It is D

  4. B option is nowhere correct. D is the right answer considering the fact that there are 9hosts. /30 SNM they gave is wrong because it can carry only 2hosts, but if the configuration is done with /28 which is D answer then everything will be fine. Remember duplex config on switches is an option and not mandatory as they`re already in full duplex by each port status as collision domain.

  5. I think B is the correct answer. The interface is configured as a half-duplex, so collision might happen.
