On an enterprise network, a network firewall is likely to be deployed to monitor and control all traffic passing between the local network and the Internet. On networks like this, clients might not be allowed to connect to the Internet directly but forced to use a proxy server instead. The proxy server can be configured as a firewall and apply other types of content filtering rules. Some proxy servers work transparently so that clients use them without any extra configuration of the client application. Other proxies require that client software, such as the browser, be configured with the IP address and port of the proxy server. This information would be provided by the network administrator.

Selected Answer: B
B. Configure the browser proxy settings. If Ann can only access intranet pages but not the Internet, it's likely that her browser is set to use an internal proxy or lacks the correct proxy configuration needed for external access. Adjusting the proxy settings should resolve the issue

Selected Answer: A
A. Renew the IP address. Explanation: Renewing the IP address is the most likely solution because Ann is able to access local intranet pages but not external sites. This suggests that the issue might be related to a misconfigured or expired IP address, or possibly a conflict with the network configuration. By renewing the IP address (using the ipconfig /release and ipconfig /renew commands on a Windows machine), Ann can get a fresh IP address, which might resolve connectivity issues with external sites.

Proxy servers typically block access to certain parts of the internet and can act as a sort of firewall. The reason why the proxy settings may be causing the issue is because they might be set specifically to block access to the websites the person is trying to gain access to.
