Practice question 407 of 506 · easy

A server responds to ping but clients cannot connect to SMB. Which check is most relevant next?

Choose the single best answer.

  1. A.Treat ping as proof SMB is healthy
  2. B.Test TCP 445 and the SMB service path
  3. C.Only change the server hostname
  4. D.Only inspect the CPU baseline
Show the answer and explanation

✓ Correct answer

  • Test TCP 445 and the SMB service path

SMB requires TCP 445 and a working listener/security path. Ping covers ICMP, not SMB; CPU and hostname changes do not directly test the failing transport.
