Group of answer choices.

A. The camera has an invalid gateway address.

B. The camera has been damaged by the power outage.

C. The camera's memory card is full

D. The camera is not connected to the wireless network.

Answer:

D. The camera is not connected to the wireless network.

Step-by-step explanation:

An IP address is an acronym for internet protocol address and it can be defined as a unique number assigned to a computer or other network devices, so as to differentiate each device from one another in an active network system. Thus, an IP address is typically used to uniquely identify each computer or network devices connected to the internet or network.

In Computer networking, IP address are classified into two (2) main categories and these are;

1. Local (internal) IP address.

2. Global (external) IP address.

In this scenario, a small business has been experiencing power outages in their area. When checking the IP-based security camera, they were not able to access the camera. They verified the camera was on and had power. Thus, what is most likely the problem is that, the camera is not connected to the wireless network.

This ultimately implies that, the IP-based security camera is only powered on but is not interconnected with the other devices on the wireless local area network (WLAN).
