Selected Answer: D
The network administrator should use a firewall at the outermost part of a network. A firewall is a network security appliance that protects a trusted network (corporate network) from an untrusted network such as the Internet. It stands as a guard at the door of a network, protecting it from malicious Internet traffic.

I get why the answer is firewall, but this question seems rather pedantic to me.

Modem is generally considered part of the ISP’s network. Modem is the connection to the internet. Firewall is the gateway to the network, not the modem.
