Which network device concentrates communications signals, accepts only basic commands, and
provides statistics such as throughput measures and uptime percentages?
Active hub
Which network device differentiates network traffic using Layer 2 of the OSI model?
Switch
A first-year student in a computer networking class is studying different addressing types and
attempting to identify them. Which of the following does she determine is a Media Access
Control (MAC) address?
00-14-22-01-23-45
, Isaac is designing a network infrastructure as a class project. He determines that one device he
requires must have the capacity to act as a repeater, operate at the Data Link Layer of the OSI
model, be able to filter packets based on their MAC address, and allow communication between
two local area networks (LANs). Which device will fulfill these specifications?
Bridge
A networking instructor is demonstrating the use of a device that, when making a connection to
the Internet, issues a series of alternating tones, and is used to translate the digital signals from
computers to the analog signals used on traditional telephone lines. Although the name is
familiar to the students, this particular device is no longer in common use. What is the
instructor demonstrating?
A modem
Fatima has been hired as a contractor to decommission a network topology that has been
employed by a small company since the 1990s. In studying the project specifications, she reads
that this physical topology uses a special packet called tokens, and can be unidirectional or
bidirectional. Although it has fewer collisions than other types of networks, this topology is
rarely seen in the twenty-first century. Baffled as to what type of network this is, she goes on
the Internet and researches the technology. What sort of topology does she find?
Ring
Logical topologies are primarily about:
connections.
Norman is a network engineer. He is creating a series of logical networks based on different
departments for a new branch office. Although the physical locations of the computers for a
particular department may be in different areas or on different floors of the building, they have
