You are a network technician for a small network. Your ITAdmin workstation just stopped communicating with all other computers in the network. You need to diagnose and fix the problem. The following IP addresses are used in this lab: Location Computer Name IP Address
Networking Closet CorpServer 172.25.10.10
Office 1 Office 1 172.25.10.60
Office 2 Office 2 172.25.10.61
Support Office Support 172.25.10.62
IT Administration ITAdmin 172.25.10.63
Executive Office Exec 172.25.10.64

Ping the other workstations from the IT Admin workstation to confirm that connection has been lost, check the status of the network interface card in the workstation with command ifconfig in the terminal, then reset the connection using ifdown and ifup commands. If the problem is not resolved, check the cable connection.

Explanation:

Ping is an ICMP echo message sent by a network host to another to check for connectivity. If they are connected, the other workstation responds with an ICMP response message.

The ifconfig in Linux systems displays the network adapters and their individual IP configurations. If there is no connection even after the network is reset, then the cable connectors could be the problem.
