The /boot/efi directory is the mount point in a UEFI system. This directory contains the EFI System Partition (ESP), which stores boot loaders and other files required by UEFI firmware. The /sys/efi directory does not exist by default in Linux systems. The /efi directory does not exist by default in Linux systems. The /etc/efi directory does not exist by default in Linux systems. References: CompTIA Linux+ (XK0-005) Certification Study Guide, Chapter 11: Managing the Linux Boot Process, page 398.

 The command that should be run on the DNS forwarder server to accomplish the task is firewall-cmd --zone=public --add-port=53/udp --permanent. The firewall-cmd command is a tool for managing firewalld, which is a firewall service that provides dynamic and persistent network security on Linux systems. The firewalld uses zones and services to define the rules and policies for the network traffic. The zones are logical groups of network interfaces and sources that have the same level of trust and security. The services are predefined sets of ports and protocols that are associated with certain applications or functions. The --zone=public option specifies the zone name that the rule applies to. The public zone is the default zone that represents the untrusted network, such as the internet. The --add-port=53/udp option adds a port and protocol to the zone. The 53 is the port number that is used by the DNS service. The udp is the protocol that is used by the DNS service. The --permanent option makes the change persistent across reboots. The command firewall-cmd --zone=public --add-port=53/udp --permanent will modify the firewall on the server for the DNS forwarder to allow the internal servers to communicate to it and make the changes persistent between server reboots. This is the correct command to use to accomplish the task. The other options are incorrect because they either do not modify the firewall on the server for the DNS forwarder (ufw allow out dns or systemct1 reload firewalld) or do not use the correct syntax for the command (iptables -A OUTPUT -p udp -ra udp -dport 53 -j ACCEPT instead of iptables -A OUTPUT -p udp -ra udp --dport 53 -j ACCEPT). References: CompTIA Linux+ (XK0-005) Certification Study Guide, Chapter 12: Managing Network Connections, page 392.

The file that will need to be modified for the server to be able to boot again is /etc/fstab. The /etc/fstab file is a file that contains the information about the file systems that are mounted at boot time on Linux systems. The file specifies the device name, mount point, file system type, mount options, dump frequency, and pass number for each file system. The error message indicates that the dependency failed for /data, which is a mount point for a file system. This means that the system could not mount the /data file system at boot time, which caused the system to enter the emergency mode. The emergency mode is a mode that allows the administrator to log in as the root user and perform basic tasks such as repairing the system. The administrator should modify the /etc/fstab file and check the entry for the /data file system. The administrator should look for any errors or inconsistencies in the device name, file system type, or mount options, and correct them. The administrator should also verify that the device and the file system are intact and functional by using commands such as blkid, fdisk, fsck, or mount. The administrator should then reboot the system and see if the issue is resolved. The file that will need to be modified for the server to be able to boot again is /etc/fstab. This is the correct answer to the question. The other options are incorrect because they are not related to the file systems that are mounted at boot time (/etc/mtab, /dev/sda, or /etc/grub.conf). References: CompTIA Linux+ (XK0-005) Certification Study Guide, Chapter 10: Managing Storage, page 321.
