正解:B,C
The technician is unable to access the company portal website, but other websites work fine. This suggests an issue with resolving the specific URL of the company portal, which is a function of DNS.
Here's why other options are not the most likely cause:
DHCP reservations: This is not relevant as the issue persists even when the technician tries a different workstation, indicating a problem beyond individual device configuration.
Static IP addresses: Similar to DHCP reservations, static IPs are not likely the cause as both affected workstations are experiencing the issue.
Default gateway: While the default gateway is necessary for internet access, other websites are working, making it less likely to be the root cause.
