Refer to the exhibit. A switch was configured as shown. A ping to the default gateway was issued, but the ping was not successful. Other switches in the same network can ping this gateway. What is a possible reason for this?
The default gateway address must be 192.168.10.1.
The ip default-gateway command has to be issued in the VLAN interface configuration mode.
The VLAN IP address and the default gateway IP address are not in the same network.
The no shutdown command was not issued for VLAN 1.
The local DNS server is not functioning correctly.

What is a result of using the service password-encryption command on a Cisco network device?
What is a result of using the service password-encryption command on a Cisco network device?
All passwords in the configuration are not shown in clear text when viewing the configuration.
The command encrypts the banner message.
The command encrypts the enable mode password.
A network administrator who later logs into the device will be required to enter an administrator password in order to gain access to the Cisco device.

11. What benefit does DHCP provide to a network?
Hosts can connect to the network and get an IP address without manual configuration.
Duplicate addresses cannot occur on a network that issues dynamic addresses using DHCP and has static assignments.
DHCP allows users to refer to locations by a name rather than an IP address.
Hosts always have the same IP address and are therefore always reachable.
