Answers
D.

Suggested answer: B

Explanation:

If there is no connectivity between the Foundation VM (FVM) and the consultant's laptop despite all devices being properly powered and correctly configured, the likely cause is the desktop firewall on the consultant's laptop blocking ping requests. This is a common issue that can prevent communication over the network even when all other network configurations are correct. The consultant should check the firewall settings and allow the necessary permissions for network communications to establish connectivity.
