Refer to the exhibit.
The network administrator normally establishes a Telnet session with the switch from host A.
However, host A is unavailable. The administrator’s attempt to telnet to the switch from host B
fails, but pings to the other two hosts are successful. What is the issue?
A.
Host B and the switch need to be in the same subnet.
B.
The switch interface connected to the router is down.
C.
Host B needs to be assigned an IP address in VLAN 1.
D.
The switch needs an appropriate default gateway assigned.
E.
The switch interfaces need the appropriate IP addresses assigned.
Explanation:
Ping was successful form host B to other hosts because of intervlan routing configured on router.
But to manage switch via telnet the VLAN32 on the switch needs to be configured interface vlan32
along with ip address and its appropriate default-gateway address.
Since VLAN1 interface is already configure on switch Host A was able to telnet switch.
The wording on this question is bogus and ruins the new learners though process by chopping up the terminology. The correct answer would have been “There is no ip configured on the INTERFACE for VLAN 32 and therefore, it is not manageable in that VLAN. The correct answer is C for the way this is worded. Please reread the question when you write it.

As the default administrative vlan is vlan 1 telnet is only possible trough this vlan.
I think the true answer is C. the port connecting host B must be assigned to vlan 1 so the administrator to have telnet session.

If router on a stick is configured correctly, and the switch has a proper default gateway, then you should be able to telnet from any host in any vlan that has it’s subnet and default gateway correct as well.
That is why the answer is D.
