Question 3

Which of the following is a function of the Internetwork layer?
A) provides a physical address
B) breaks data into segments
C) delivers packets efficiently
D) provides CRC error checking

Accepted Answer

The main function of the Internetwork layer (also known as the Network layer) is to provide routing of packets across multiple networks, including identifying the most efficient path for the packet to take to reach its destination. This helps to ensure efficient delivery of packets. Providing a physical address (choice A) is the function of the Data Link layer, breaking data into segments (choice B) is the function of the Transport layer, and providing CRC error checking (choice D) is also the function of the Transport layer.

Question 4

Which Application layer protocols are used for file-sharing? (Choose all that apply.)
A) DNS
B) SNMP
C) SMB
D) DHCP
E) NFS

Accepted Answer

C) SMB (Server Message Block) is a protocol used for shared access to files, printers, and other resources on a network. It is commonly used on Windows operating systems for file-sharing.
E) NFS (Network File System) is a protocol used for sharing files across a network, commonly used on Unix and Linux operating systems. Therefore, C and E are the correct answers. 
A, B, and D are not file-sharing protocols. A is a protocol used for domain name resolution, B is a protocol used for network management, and D is a protocol used for automatic IP address assignment.

Question 12

What type of record do you need to create so the address of your mail server can be resolved?
A) PTR
B) CNAME
C) MX
D) SRV

Accepted Answer

To resolve the address of a mail server, you need to create an MX record. An MX record specifies the mail exchange server responsible for accepting email messages on behalf of a specific domain name.

Question 13

Which of the following is a feature of TCP? (Choose all that apply.)
A) breaks large chunks of data into segments
B) converts signals into bits
C) provides data-formatting services
D) ensures flow control
E) establishes a connection

Accepted Answer

A) TCP breaks large chunks of data into segments to ensure efficient transmission across the network.

D) TCP ensures flow control by regulating the amount of data that is sent at once to prevent overload and congestion.

E) TCP establishes a connection between two devices before data transmission can occur.
