You've implemented a network where hosts are assigned specific roles, such
as file sharing and printing roles. Other hosts access those resources, but
they don't host services of their own.
Which type of network do you have? - -Client-server
- Which of the following geographic network types is typically managed by a
city as a public utility? - -Metropolitan area network (MAN)
- You've implemented a network where each device provides all other
devices on the network with access to shared files.
Which type of network do you have? - -Peer-to-peer
- You have a network that uses a logical bus topology. How do messages
travel through the network? - -Messages are broadcast to all devices
connected to the network.
- You have a network that uses a logical ring topology. How do messages
travel through the network? - -Messages travel from one device to the next
until they reach the destination device.
- 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? - -Partial
mesh
- Which of the following topologies connects all devices to a trunk cable? - -
Bus
- Your manager has asked you to implement a network infrastructure that
will accommodate failed connections.
Which of the following network topologies provides redundancy for a failed
link? - -Mesh
- Which of the following topologies connects each device to a neighboring
device? - -Ring
- You have a small network that uses a switch to connect multiple devices.
Which physical topology are you using? - -Star
, - In the OSI model, which of the following functions are performed at the
Application layer? (Select two.) - -Enabling of communication between
network clients and services.
Integration of network functionality into the host operating system.
- Which of the following are included as part of the Data Link layer
specifications? (Select two.) - -Physical network device identification
Data transmission between hosts
- In the OSI model, what is the primary function of the Network layer? - -
Route messages between networks.
- What is the basic purpose of the OSI Physical layer? - -Coordinate rules for
sending and receiving electrical signals.
- In the OSI model, which of the following functions are performed at the
Presentation layer? (Select two.) - -Data format specifications
Data encryption and compression
- Which of the following tasks is associated with the Session layer? - -
Connection establishment
- During TCP/IP communication between two network hosts, information is
encapsulated on the sending host and decapsulated on the receiving host
using the OSI model.
Match the information format on the left with the appropriate layer of the OSI
model on the right. - -Transport layer
Segments
Network layer
Packets
Data Link layer
Frames
Physical layer
Bits
- Which of the following functions are performed by the OSI Transport layer?
(Select three.) - -End-to-end flow control
Reliable message delivery
