Here’s a classic IT troubleshooting clue: The application won’t connect using APP-SRV01 ❌ But entering 192.168.10.25 works perfectly. ✅ That tells us the server is reachable and the application is working. The problem points toward name resolution. DNS translates hostnames like APP-SRV01 into IP addresses like 192.168.10.25. If that process fails, you can have a perfectly working network connection while applications still fail by hostname. Remember: Works by IP but not by name? Check DNS. Studying for the CompTIA A+?
