Fixing IP Misconfiguration - Help Desk Simulation

 


In this video, I simulate a common help desk issue — an IP misconfiguration — using a Windows Server and Windows 10 lab environment.  

💻 Part 1: Diagnosing and Fixing the Issue  
I demonstrate how to identify a subnet mismatch problem, fix the IP configuration, and restore network connectivity between a Windows 10 client and Windows Server.

🧾 Part 2: Writing the Ticket  
I also show how to document the issue, including business and technical notes, and a proper ticket summary line.

This is part of my Help Desk training series to prepare for real-world troubleshooting. 

🔧 Topics Covered:
How to identify IP misconfiguration
Using ping and ipconfig for troubleshooting
Subnet mask explanation 
Correctly assigning static IP addresses
Writing detailed ticket notes

🖥️ Lab Setup:
Windows Server 2022 (Domain Controller)
Windows 10 (Help Desk Machine)
Windows 10 (Employee Workstation)
