When a DHCP client is connected to a network and no DHCP server is available, the client can automatically configure a link-local address in the 169.254.0.0/16 range using the Automatic Private IP Addressing (APIPA) feature. So, the correct answer is option B, 169.254.1.128. This is also known as an APIPA address.

tracert is a command-line tool that can trace the route of a packet from the source to the destination. It can show the number of hops, the IP address and hostname of each router, and the round-trip time for each hop. tracert can help the technician troubleshoot the unreachable website by identifying where the packet is dropped or delayed along the path. ipconfig is a command-line tool that can display and configure the IP settings of a network interface. arp is a command-line tool that can display and manipulate the Address Resolution Protocol (ARP) cache, which maps IP addresses to MAC addresses. netstat is a command-line tool that can display network connections, routing tables, and statistics.

Virtual Router Redundancy Protocol (VRRP) is a protocol that allows for redundant routers on the network with a single IP address. VRRP works by creating a virtual router that consists of one master router and one or more backup routers. The virtual router has its own IP address and MAC address that are shared among the routers in the group. The master router responds to traffic sent to the virtual router's IP address, while the backup routers monitor the master router's status. If the master router fails, one of the backup routers takes over as the new master router and continues to respond to traffic. This way, VRRP provides high availability and fault tolerance for the network. Reference: https://www.comptia.org/training/books/network-n10-008-study-guide (page 230)
