Category - MCSA 70-270 XP

You’ve installed and are attempting to share files with other computers on your local network. Although the Windows Firewall is enabled, it is configured to allow IIS traffic. Your IP address is 192.168.10.2. When another user on the network tries to access your computer, he receives an error message indicating that the server could not be found. If you’ve configured IIS using the default settings, which of the following is the URL that someone has to type to access your computer?
  1. http://192.168.10.2/80
  2. ftp://192.168.10. 2:80/
  3. http://www.192.168.10. 2/
  4. http://192.168.10.2:80/
Explanation
Answer: D - Anyone who is trying to access your computer should type <http://192.168.10.2:80/> to be able to access it.

Key Takeaway: The general syntax for accessing a computer when IIS is configured is http://<IP address>:<Protocol port number> /. In this case, since default settings are used and it’s an HTTP access, you need to type <http://192.168.10.2:80/> in your browser. If you want higher security, then you should change the port number used for access-that way the access port number is not generic and is more secure. This can be done by specifying a port number in the TCP Port field in the website tab in the Default website Properties window.
