Answer:

the issued Automatic Private IP Addressing (APIPA) address.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we are told that the user was able to access the network resources yesterday, and all the network equipment in the user's computer is functioning properly, there is a very high possibility that because the user's computer has been issued an Automatic Private IP Addressing (APIPA) address, it affected his computer's ability to connect to a public network.

This is the case because private network IP addresses are known to prevent inflow and outflow of data onto public networks.
