Question 1

TCP/IP will not work without a DNS server.

Accepted Answer

While DNS servers are important for resolving domain names to IP addresses, TCP/IP can still function without a DNS server. IP addresses can be directly entered in the address bar or configured in a hosts file on the local machine.

Question 2

Whenever you use a network to transfer data, an entire set of ____________________ is used to set up and maintain reliable data transfer between the two network stations.

Accepted Answer

protocols

Question 3

A(n) _________________________ is any facility that contains its own direct connection to the Internet.

Question 4

If a problem arises with the DHCP server or a new static address has been assigned to a particular client computer, it may be necessary to assign the addresses ____.
A) manually
B) with BOOTP
C) in the router
D) on the switch

Accepted Answer

If there is an issue with the DHCP server or a new static address needs to be assigned, it will be necessary to assign the address manually. BOOTP is an older protocol that is not commonly used in modern networks. Assigning addresses in the router or on the switch can be done, but it is typically easier and more practical to assign addresses at the individual client level. Therefore, the best choice is to assign the addresses manually.

Question 5

To connect to a remote host, it is necessary to supply ____.
A) nothing
B) a password only
C) a username only
D) a user name and a password

Accepted Answer

In order to connect to a remote host, a user must provide both a username and a password for authentication purposes. This ensures that the user has the proper authorization to access the remote host. Options A, B, and C are incorrect as they do not provide sufficient authentication for connecting to a remote host.

Question 6

Windows communicates with the network printer's host machine using ____________________.

Accepted Answer

The answer of Windows communicates with the network printer's host...

Question 7

With ICA technology in place, ____-bit high-speed processing is available to all ICA clients, regardless of their individual capabilities.
A) 16
B) 32
C) 64
D) 128

Accepted Answer

ICA technology provides 32-bit high-speed processing to all clients, regardless of their individual capabilities.

Question 8

When trouble shooting at the software level there are two areas of concern: ____.
A) the network operating system software and the router software
B) the network operating system software and the client routing software
C) the application software and the router software
D) the network operating system software and the application software

Accepted Answer

When troubleshooting at the software level, the two areas of concern are the network operating system software and the application software. The network operating system software manages the network and its resources, whereas the application software runs on top of the network operating system and performs specific tasks like email, file sharing, etc. Therefore, both of these software are critical for the functioning of the network and need to be considered in troubleshooting. Option A and B are not accurate as router software and client routing software are not always the main areas of concern in troubleshooting, whereas option C is not accurate as router software and application software do not typically conflict with each other.

Question 9

A ____ is a printer that a user has decided to share. For the user's machine it is a local printer.
A) network printer
B) print server
C) print master
D) system printer

Accepted Answer

A shared printer is a printer that a user has decided to share with other users over a network. For the user's machine, it is considered as a local printer, but it can be accessed by other users on the network as a network printer.

Question 10

When assigning addresses manually, the network administrator must keep track of what computer has what address.

Accepted Answer

When assigning IP addresses manually, the network administrator must keep track of the addresses assigned to each device in order to avoid conflicts and ensure proper communication within the network.

Question 11

Troubleshooting a network connection requires familiarity with several levels of operation.

Accepted Answer

Troubleshooting a network connection requires understanding and familiarity with the physical layer, data link layer, network layer, and possibly the transport layer of the OSI model.

Question 12

Question 14

Although Windows supports many different types of common networking protocols, the backbone of its original network operations were based on ____.
A) TCPBEUI
B) IPX/SPX
C) NetBEUI
D) WinBEUI

Accepted Answer

NetBEUI was the backbone of Windows' original network operations. While Windows supports a variety of networking protocols, NetBEUI was the one that was used by default in Windows 95 and earlier versions. TCP/IP eventually replaced NetBEUI as the default protocol in Windows, but NetBEUI is still supported in some versions of Windows for compatibility with older networks. IPX/SPX was also a commonly used protocol in older versions of Windows, but it was primarily used in Novell NetWare networks, rather than native Windows networks. TCPBEUI and WinBEUI are not valid networking protocols.

Question 15

____ is an efficient remote-access method used to connect thin clients to a network.
A) CIA
B) ITA
C) ICA
D) VBI

Accepted Answer

ICA (Independent Computing Architecture) is a remote access method developed by Citrix Systems. It is designed to connect thin clients to a network and provide efficient access to server-hosted applications and desktops.

Question 16

Locating computers in Windows XP is accomplished using the ____.
A) My Network Places
B) Network Neighborhood
C) Network and Sharing Center
D) Network Universe

Accepted Answer

My Network Places is the correct option for locating computers in Windows XP. Network Neighborhood was used in earlier versions of Windows, Network and Sharing Center is a feature of Windows Vista and later, and there is no such thing as Network Universe in Windows.

Question 17

A ____ is local to your machine and only your machine can print to your printer.
A) network printer
B) local printer
C) remote printer
D) system printer

Accepted Answer

A local printer is connected directly to your computer and cannot be accessed by other devices on a network. Network printers (A) are shared on a network and can be accessed by multiple devices. Remote printers (C) are printers on another network or location that can be accessed over the internet. System Printer (D) is a printer driver service installed on a user's computer which actually communicates with the printer, translating the computers documents into a language that the printer can understand.

Question 18

Today, the backbone of Windows network operation is based on NetBEUI.

Accepted Answer

The backbone of Windows network operation is based on TCP/IP, not NetBEUI. NetBEUI was primarily used in older versions of Windows for small, peer-to-peer networks.

Question 19

One of the main disadvantages with NetBEUI is that it is a(n) ____ protocol.
A) invertible
B) convertible
C) routable
D) nonroutable

Accepted Answer

NetBEUI is a nonroutable protocol, which means it cannot be used to communicate with devices on a different network segment without additional network routing protocols or devices. This limits its use in larger networks where communication between different segments is necessary.

Question 20

Windows offers many different ways to connect your machine to the Internet, or one or more local computers.

Accepted Answer

Windows operating system includes various options for connecting to the Internet or local network computers, such as Wi-Fi, Ethernet, Bluetooth, cellular data, and VPN.
