Kaya is an administrator at Kelvin Computing. Benjamin, a user, wants to access a shared folder on SERVERA, so he uses the UNC \servera\share to access the folder. His computer then sends out a broadcast to the network to resolve the name SERVERA. Because of the broadcast, all computers on the LAN interpret it and causes additional processing that interferes with other operations. What can Kaya do to avoid this additional overhead?
A) Install a WINS server
B) Restart the DNS Server
C) Configure a default forwarder
D) Configure a conditional forwarder

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

By installing a WINS server, Benjamin's computer can query the server for the IP address of SERVERA instead of broadcasting to the network. This reduces the amount of unnecessary network traffic and processing overhead on all other computers on the LAN.
