CompTIA Updated 220-1102 Exam Questions and Answers by eleri

Restarting services can resolve issues with web applications without requiring a full server reboot, which aligns with the company policy.

Restart services: Likely to resolve issues with the web application by refreshing the necessary services.

Roll back Windows updates: Unnecessary if the issue is with the application services.

Perform a Windows repair: More disruptive and not typically needed for application service issues.

Add RAM to the server: Would require a reboot and is not immediately necessary for troubleshooting application issues.

Cross-site scripting (XSS) (Option C) allows attackers to inject malicious scripts into web pages viewed by users. When the user visits the compromised site, the script runs in the user's browser, potentially allowing the attacker to steal data or perform unauthorized actions. XSS is a common vulnerability in web applications that allows code execution.

DoS (Option A) disrupts services but doesn't involve executing code on a user's device.

Spoofing (Option B) involves impersonating another device or user but doesn't execute code.

SQL injection (Option D) attacks a database and is unrelated to executing code on the user's computer.

CompTIA A+ Core 2 References:

2.4 - Explain common social engineering attacks, including XSS​​.

Detailed Explanation with Core 2 References:Rack-mounted UPS units are often heavy, so technicians should seek assistance to lift them to avoid injury, following safety procedures. Core 2 includes handling hardware safely as part of best practices (Core 2 Objective 4.4)​.

The ipconfig /all output shows the following:

IPv4 Address............ 192.168.0.74Subnet Mask............. 255.255.255.255Default Gateway......... 192.168.0.1

The issue with the subnet mask being set to 255.255.255.255 is that it specifies a single host subnet, meaning the device cannot communicate with other devices on the network or access the internet. The correct subnet mask for a typical home network should be:

Subnet mask of 255.255.255.0: This allows for communication within the same local network (192.168.0.0/24).

Default gateway 192.168.0.1: Correct, this is the typical address for the router.

IPv4 Address 192.168.0.74: Correct, within the correct subnet range.

Changing the subnet mask to 255.255.255.0 will resolve the connectivity issue.
