Troubleshoot

1. From the Exec computer, begin troubleshooting by verifying the scope of the connectivity problem.
a. Under Executive Office, select Exec.
b. Right-click Start and then select Terminal (Admin).
c. From the PowerShell prompt, run the following ping commands (press Enter after each command):
ping 192.168.0.10 (CorpServer)
ping 198.28.2.254 (the internet service provider, or ISP)
Notice that both pings are unsuccessful.
ping ITAdmin (the name of the computer in the IT Administration office)
Notice that the ping to ITAdmin is successful. However, it is responding using an APIPA IP address. This indicates that this
computer is not getting its IP address from the DHCP as it should.
2. From the CorpServer computer, continue troubleshooting the problem by trying to access the ISP.
a. From the top left, select Floor 1 Overview.
b. Under Networking Closet, select CorpServer.
c. Right-click Start and then select Windows PowerShell (Admin).
d. Type ping 198.28.2.254 (the ISP) from the PowerShell prompt.

b. Under IT Administration, select ITAdmin.
c. Right-click Start and then select Terminal (Admin).
d. From the PowerShell prompt, run the following ping commands (press Enter after each command):
ping 192.168.0.10 (CorpServer)
ping 198.28.2.254 (the ISP)
