a.A DNS misconfiguration
b.An expired DHCP lease
c.An incorrect subnet mask
d.A switching loop from a redundant link without STP

Adding a redundant link between switches without a working Spanning Tree Protocol creates a Layer 2 loop, producing a broadcast storm. Enabling or verifying STP resolves it. Broadcast storms rapidly saturate switch bandwidth and CPU.
