Syslog is used to log system events and tasks performed by applications, providing a centralized record of activity.

Why Not A (Fileshare): Fileshares store files but are not designed for event logging.

Why Not C (Database): Databases can store logs but are not a logging mechanism themselves.

Why Not D (SAN): A SAN is a storage solution, not a logging tool.

CompTIA A+ Exam Reference: Core 1 (220-1101), Section 2.6, system monitoring and logging​.

Tethering refers to sharing a mobile phone’s internet connection with another device, such as a laptop, either through USB, Bluetooth, or Wi-Fi. Tethering effectively turns the mobile phone into a personal hotspot for internet access.

Option A (IR): Incorrect. Infrared (IR) is used for short-range communication, such as remote controls, but it does not support internet sharing.

Option B (NFC): Incorrect. Near-field communication (NFC) is used for close-proximity data transfer, not for internet sharing.

Option C (Wi-Fi Direct): Incorrect. Wi-Fi Direct enables device-to-device communication but does not inherently provide internet sharing.

Since the on-premises email server has been decommissioned and users are experiencing issues with scan-to-email functionality, the best solution would be to configure an email relay. An email relay server can accept emails from devices like printers and forward them to the correct destination (such as a cloud-based email service). This avoids the need to bring back the old server or set up a new one.

A. Configure an email relay on an existing server: This allows the scanner to send emails through another server, ensuring the functionality is restored.

Why the other options are incorrect:

B. Configure a secure, cloud-based email relay: While a cloud-based solution could work, configuring an email relay on an existing server is a more immediate and likely solution.

C. Bring the old email server back into production: This is unnecessary and would defeat the purpose of decommissioning it.

D. Configure a new email server from scratch: Setting up a new email server would be time-consuming and not necessary in this situation.

A community cloud is designed for multiple organizations with shared goals or projects, allowing collaboration while maintaining a level of privacy. This cloud model is ideal for the scenario where organizations are working together and need to migrate project-related data to the cloud.

Why Not A (Public): Public cloud is shared among all users and lacks the collaboration-specific features of a community cloud.

Why Not B (Hybrid): Hybrid cloud combines public and private resources but is not tailored to multiple organizations working on a joint project.

Why Not C (Private): Private cloud is exclusive to a single organization and unsuitable for collaboration among multiple entities.
