Question

You recently completed a network overhaul over the weekend. Everything seems to be functioning properly until you receive a swarm of help desk support requests, all originating from one specific floor in your building. After a few minutes on the phone with those affected, you determine that no one has indicator lights active on their NICs. What is the most likely problem?

Answer 1

Network switch has been disconnected or switched off

Step-by-step explanation:

An organization networking can be done by using several switches, routers, modems, etc. A network switch works between modem and systems, connecting the systems to the network.

A network switch is a multi-port switch that connects multiple devices to the network. mostly every floor has a network switch connected with the floor systems.

When a system is connected to switch, its indicator light on NIC is active. but as per the scenario, no system has active indicator lights on NIC, which means that there is some problem with the switch or switch is powered off.
