Networking Basics
What topologies is a CAN able to use?(Select three.) - Answer- -Star
-Ring
-Bus
A controller area network (CAN) is designed to allow communications between
mircrocontrollers and devices. CANs use Bus, Star, and Ring topologies.
You have implemented a network where each device provides all other devices on the
network with access to shared files.
What type of network do you have? - Answer- Peer-to-Peer
In a peer-to-peer network, each host can provide network resources to other hosts or
access resources located on other hosts, and each host is in charge of controlling
access to those resources.
In a client/server network, host have specific roles. For example, some hosts are
assigned server roles, which allow them to provide network resources to other hosts.
Other hosts are assigned client roles, which allow them to consume network resources.
You have implemented a network where hosts are assigned specific roles, such as for
file sharing and printing roles. Other hosts access those resources, but do not host
services of their own.
What type of network do you have? - Answer- Client-Server
In a client-server network, hosts have a specific role. For example, some hosts are
assigned server roles, which allow them to provide network resources to other hosts.
Other hosts are assigned client roles, which allow them to consume network resources.
In a peer-to-peer network, each host can provide network resources to other hosts or
access resources located on other hosts, and host is in charge of controlling access to
those resources.
, Which of the following geographic network types are typically managed by a city as a
public utility? - Answer- Metropolitan area network (MAN)
A metropolitan area network (MAN) is a network that can cover an entire city. A city
typically owns and manages a MAN as a public utility.
Your have a small network that uses a switch to connect multiple devices. Which
physical topology are you using? - Answer- Star
Your manager has asked you to implement a wired network infrastructure that will
accommodate failed connections. You don't have a large budget, so you decide to
provide redundancy for only a handful of critical devices.
Which of the following network topologies should you implement? - Answer- Partial
Mesh
In a partial mesh topology, only some redundant paths exist. A partial mesh topology is
more practical and less expensive than a full mesh topology.
In a full mesh topology, every device has a point-to-point connection with every other
device. This provides full redundancy, but it is expensive and impractical.
You have a network that uses a logical ring topology. How do messages travel through
the network? - Answer- Messages travel from one device to the next until they reach the
destination device.
In a logical ring topology, messages travel to each device in turn. If the message is not
intended for that device, the message is forwarded to the next device on the network.
You have a network that uses a logical bus topology. How do messages travel through
the network? - Answer- Messages are broadcast to all devices connected to the
network.
Messages sent using a physical bus topology are broadcast to all devices in the
network. The device in the middle of the star, which is typically a hub, receives the
message and forwards it on all other devices.
Which of the following topologies connects all devices to a trunk cable? - Answer- Bus
The bus topology connects all devices to a trunk cable.
Which of the following topologies connects each device to a neighboring device? -
Answer- Ring
In ring tolologies, each device connects to a neighboring device so that a ring is formed.
