In a networking class, the instructor tells the students to ping the other computers in the classroom from the command prompt. Why do all pings in the class fail?
- Port 25 is blocked and preventing the echo request from being transmitted.
- The computers are on different networks.
- A virus is on the classroom computers.
- The Windows firewall is blocking the ping.
