Exam Viewer - DHomesb Chapter 3 - CCNA Discovery: Networking for Home and Small Businesses (Version 4.0)


1. Which term is used to describe the process of placing one message format into another
     format so that the message can be delivered across the appropriate medium?

     flow control
     encapsulation
     encoding
     multicasting
     access method

2.

   Refer to the graphic. Five PCs are connected through a hub. If host H1 wants to reply to a
   message from host H2, which statement is true?

   H1 sends a unicast message to H2, but the hub forwards it to all devices.
   H1 sends a unicast message to H2, and the hub forwards it directly to H2.
   H1 sends a broadcast message to H2, and the hub forwards it to all devices.
   H1 sends a multicast message to H2, and the hub forwards it directly to H2.

3. Which two statements concerning networking standards are true? (Choose two.)

    adds complexity to networks
    encourages vendors to create proprietary protocols
    provides consistent interconnections across networks
    ensures that communications work best in a single-vendor environment
    simplifies new product development

4. What does the 100 mean when referencing the 100BASE-T Ethernet standard?

     type of cable used
     type of data transmission
     speed of transmission
     type of connector required
     maximum length of cable allowed

5. Which address does an NIC use when deciding whether to accept a frame?

     source IP address
     source MAC address
     destination IP address
     destination MAC address
     source Ethernet address

6. Which type of address is used in an Ethernet frame header?

    logical addresses only
    IP addresses only
    MAC addresses only
    broadcast addresses only

7. What is the function of the FCS field in an Ethernet frame?

    detects transmission errors
    provides timing for transmission
    contains the start of frame delimiter
    indicates which protocol will receive the frame

8. What is the purpose of logical addresses in an IP network?

    They identify a specific NIC on a host device.
    They are used to determine which host device accepts the frame.
    They provide vendor-specific information about the host.
    They are used to determine the network that the host is located on.
    They are used by switches to make forwarding decisions.

9. Which device accepts a message on one port and always forwards the message to all other
    ports?

    modem
    switch
    router
    hub

10. Which two networking devices are used to connect hosts to the access layer? 
      (Choose two.)

      router
      hub
      switch
      server
      computer

11. Host A needs to learn the MAC address of Host B, which is on the same LAN segment. 
      A message has been sent to all the hosts on the segment asking for the MAC address of
      Host B. Host B responds with its MAC address and all other hosts disregard the request. 
      What protocol was used in this scenario?

      ARP
      DHCP
      DNS
      WINS

12. A switch receives a frame with a destination MAC address that is currently not in the MAC
       table. What action does the switch perform?

       It drops the frame.
       It sends out an ARP request looking for the MAC address.
       It floods the frame out of all active ports, except the origination port.
       It returns the frame to the sender.

13. What is a benefit of having a router within the distribution layer?

       prevents collisions on a local network
       keeps broadcasts contained within a local network
       controls which hosts have access to the network
       controls host-to-host traffic within a single local network

14.

     Refer to the graphic. What does the router do after it determines that a data packet from
     Network 1 should be forwarded to Network 2?

      It sends the data packet as it was received.
      It reassembles the frame with different MAC addresses than the original frame.
      It reassembles the data packet with different IP addresses than the original data packet.
      It reassembles both the packet and the frame with different destination IP and MAC
      addresses.

15. Which table does a router use to make decisions about the interface through which a data
       packet is to be sent?

       ARP table
       routing table
       network table
       forwarding table

16. If the default gateway is configured incorrectly on the host, what is the impact on
      communications?

       The host is unable to communicate on the local network.
       The host can communicate with other hosts on the local network, but is unable to
       communicate with hosts on remote networks.
       The host can communicate with other hosts on remote networks, but is unable to  
       communicate with hosts on the local network.
       There is no impact on communications.

17. What device is typically used as the default gateway for a computer?

       a server hosted by the ISP
       the router interface closest to the computer
       a server managed by a central IT department
       the switch interface that connects to the computer

18. What type of route allows a router to forward packets even though its routing table contains
       no specific route to the destination network?

      dynamic route
      default route
      destination route
      generic route

19. Which two items are included in a network logical map? (Choose two.)

       naming scheme
       IP addressing scheme
       length of cable runs
       physical location of networking devices
       specific layout of interconnections between networking devices and hosts

20. An integrated router can normally perform the functions of which two other network devices?
      (Choose two.)

      NIC
      switch
      e-mail server
      application server
      wireless access point

21. What is a reason for disabling simple file sharing?

       It enables the user to map a remote resource with a local drive.
       It enables the user to share all files with all users and groups.
       It enables the user to share printers.
       It enables the user to set more specific security access levels.
