The DNS server would need to point to the internal address for internal networks. If you were using say, Googles DNS server the server would not know how to resolve internal.comapy.site

Also while C and D are completely irrelevant, B can safely be excluded too because the gateway address is primarily related to routing internet traffic, and since users can already access internet sites, it suggests that the gateway address is correctly configured for internet connectivity.

Selected Answer: A
Intranet normally refers to internal services within the organization. Such services are controlled by DNS and therefore A would be the most appropriate answer here.

Selected Answer: A
A. Correct the DNS server entries in the DHCP scope. Explanation: Since users in the new building can access external internet sites but cannot access the company's intranet, this suggests an issue with DNS configuration specific to internal addresses. Typically, intranet resources use internal DNS entries, which may not be available through public DNS servers. If the DNS entries in the DHCP scope are incorrect, users won’t be able to resolve internal URLs.

The correct answer is B. Copy this question and ask bard and he gives a great reasoning.

B makes no sense since they already said they can connect to the Internet but we are talking about intranet here with company resources.

A. Correct the DNS server entries in the DHCP scope - internal domain name resolution for the internal webserver is failing

Why is it "A"?

A is the best answer as the question states the users are able to browse the internet so assuming to Comptia, the FW configuration settings are working. C and D are irrelevant.

I'm only accepting "A" as the answer because the other 3 make no sense.

The most detail I can give is that they're on the intranet they just can't get onto the internet and (for me at least) my first idea would be to check DNS

When the new network is set up, it will need DNS records to associate to the intranet domain resources, which sounds like it did not get done. Either the new network needs to tie into the existing intranet DNS server via the DHCP lease, or a new one should be set up in the local subnet. If it's got a direct connection to the WAN interface, then it'll be able to use WAN DNS servers like 8.8.8.8 or 1.1.1.1 to find internet websites just fine. But external DNS servers don't have internal intranet domain names, so you wouldn't have intranet access that way.
