0002778: (IT training) Lesson 1 Moving computers

Problem

Internal Sales Dept has to be re-located to another room (next to the kitchen)

Solution

Before move verify that:

  • new room has Ethernet Jacks
  • there are as many jacks as computers
  • all jacks are active (connected to hub or switch through patch panel)

If above is true then after you move PCs to a new room and connect them they should become fully functional.
