Question 1:
What are two token-ring frame fields, within the Access Control Byte, that
control priority?
reservation field and priority field
relay
field and priority field
remote
field and control field
restriction field and placement field
Question 2:
Which of the 4 FDDI specifications defines how the medium is accessed?
Media Access Control (MAC)
Physical
Layer Protocol (PHY)
Physical
Layer Medium (PMD)
Station
Management (SMT)
Question 3:
What are two types of token ring frames?
BPU and
ACK
802.2 and
802.5
data/command and token
NCP and
LCP
Question 4:
Which best describes a network segment?
section
of a network containing a predetermined number of addressable services
section
of a network that is a logical grouping based on MAC addresses
section
of a network that contains Token Ring topology
section of a network bounded by routers, switches,
or bridges
Question 5:
Which of the following best describes a broadcast storm?
A frame
that will be sent to one node on a network
When too many broadcasts are sent out over the network
A section
of a network that is bounded by bridges, routers, or switches
The
network areas within which frames that have collided are propag
Question 6:
FDDI and token-ring share which of the following features?
operate
at the same speed
use a ring topology
use
CSMA/CD
use of
dual rings
Question 7:
What is the relationship between an Ethernet version 2 header and the header of
an 802.3 frame?
The
Ethernet version 2 header is much longer than the header of an 802.3 frame.
The
Ethernet version 2 header is much shorter than the header of an 802.3 frame.
The two headers are the same length as each other.
The two
headers are completely different from each other.
Question 8:
Which of the following statements are true of routers?
They are
passive.
They
operate only at the data link layer.
They base
forwarding decisions on Layer 2 addresses.
They base forwarding decisions on Layer 3 protocol
addresses.
Question 9:
Which device can significantly reduce collisions?
hub
NIC
switch
transceiver
Question 10:
Which fiber mode characteristic is recommended for inter-building connectivity?
single-mode
multi-mode
intra-mode
inter-mode
Question 11:
Which of the following is true concerning bridges?
They
forward all data packets to other segments of the network.
They can
restrict unauthorized access to files by reading the filename from the header.
They
forward packets based on IP addresses.
They can improve network performance.
Question 12:
On a LAN, what part of a host connects to the media?
media
interface port
serial
port
MAC card
NIC card
Question 13:
How does a token-ring topology differ from an Ethernet topology?
Token-ring is deterministic.
Token-ring networks have increased collisions.
Token-ring uses 802.3 and Ethernet uses 802.5.
Token-ring operates at 10 Mbps and Ethernet at 16 Mbps.
Question 14:
What is the process of each port of a switch being its own small bridge?
macrosegmentation
microsegmentation
port-centric
none of
the above
Question 15:
Why is Ethernet known as a best-effort delivery system?
If a
destination device detects any errors, then the data packet is discarded and
the sender notified.
The
destination device notifies the source only if it receives all of the data.
The
destination only notifies the source if the data was corrupted.
If the destination must discard the data, then it
does not notify the source
Question 16:
Which LAN technology uses CSMA/CD?
Ethernet
Token
Ring
FDDI
All of
the above.
Question 17:
What is the most widely used local area network (LAN) technology?
Token
Ring
Ethernet
ArcNet
FDDI
Question 18:
What private company created Ethernet?
Apple
IBM
Xerox
Cisco
Question 19:
What device builds a MAC address table?
passive
hub
bridge
active
hub
transceiver
Question 20:
What can be done if the area of the LAN is more than 200 meters in diameter?
a repeater could be installed to extend the
network
another
server could be used to extend the network
special
NICs can be purchased to extend the network
all of
the above
Question 21:
What is true of 10BaseT signals?
They use
Manchester encoding.
They
combine both clock and data information into a self-synchronizing stream of
signals.
They are
designed to send and receive signals over a segment that consists of 4 wires.
All of the above are true
