E.

DNS settings

Answers
E.

DNS settings

Suggested answer: B

Explanation:

If the network cable is functioning but there is no network connectivity, the next step would be to check the IPv4 options. This includes verifying that the server has a correct IP address, subnet mask, and gateway configuration.

IPv4 options (Answer B): Incorrect IP configuration is a common reason for network connectivity issues.

NIC firmware (Option A): Firmware issues are less likely if the NIC is detecting the cable and appears operational.

DHCP options (Option C): DHCP could be checked if automatic IP assignment is being used, but verifying IPv4 options manually is the first step.

Firewall options (Option D): Firewalls can block connectivity but should be checked after confirming IP settings.

DNS settings (Option E): DNS issues usually affect domain name resolution, not basic network connectivity.
