I think that questing is unique to that job you are applying to since it sounds like a standard procedure that your company are using.

Do Physical First.
Check Lights on LAN Card. Is Connection LED on? Is Data Light On? Check Cable is secure in Card Check Cable is secure in Network Outlet Check Outlet is connected to Switch. If No Light, yet all cables are secure, replace Patch Cables. Test again. Does user Have correct IP Address? Does User Have Correct DNS Settings? Does User have Correct Gateway Settings. Ping From PC to Switch, is switch replying Ping from PC To Gateway, Is Gateway replying |
