Bus

Correct Incorrect Correct answer

Star

Correct Incorrect Correct answer

Ring

Correct Incorrect Correct answer

Mesh

Correct Incorrect Correct answer

In a physical star topology, one workstation becomes disconnected from the network.

What is the most likely impact?

The entire network goes down because the ring is broken.

Correct Incorrect Correct answer

Only the disconnected workstation loses connectivity.

Correct Incorrect Correct answer

The disconnected workstation and its connected device lose communication with the network.

Correct Incorrect Correct answer

All devices lose connectivity due to an unterminated network segment.

Correct Incorrect Correct answer

Determining whose computer will act as the server.

Correct Incorrect Correct answer

Limited security and access control.

Correct Incorrect Correct answer

Ensuring enough peers exist for the network to function.

Correct Incorrect Correct answer

In which situation would you most likely implement a point-to-multipoint network?

A central office needs to communicate with several branch offices.

Correct Incorrect Correct answer

A full mesh of WAN connections is already deployed.

Correct Incorrect Correct answer

Multiple branch offices are daisy-chained in sequence.

Correct Incorrect Correct answer

Correct Incorrect Correct answer

Which of the following is an example of a Local Area Network (LAN)?

Ten buildings connected using Ethernet over fiber-optic cabling.

Correct Incorrect Correct answer

Ten routers connected using frame-relay circuits

Correct Incorrect Correct answer

Two routers connected with a T1 line.

Correct Incorrect Correct answer

Two computers directly connected to share files

Correct Incorrect Correct answer

Which of the following is a disadvantage of a star topology?

When one port fails, all connected devices lose connectivity.

Correct Incorrect Correct answer

If the central hub or switch fails, the entire network goes down.

Correct Incorrect Correct answer

Star topologies require more expensive hosts than bus topologies.

Correct Incorrect Correct answer

It is more complex to add and troubleshoot than other topologies.

Correct Incorrect Correct answer

Which of the following is a key difference between a LAN and a WAN?

WANs require special router interfaces.

Correct Incorrect Correct answer

WANs cover much larger physical distances.

Correct Incorrect Correct answer

WANs can use private or public data transport.

Correct Incorrect Correct answer

All of the above.

Correct Incorrect Correct answer

You are configuring secure remote access for your company’s network.

What does the acronym VPN stand for?

Virtual Processor Network

Correct Incorrect Correct answer

Virtual Passive Network

Correct Incorrect Correct answer

Virtual Private Network

Correct Incorrect Correct answer

Correct Incorrect Correct answer

Which of the following is an example of a hybrid network topology?

Ethernet

Correct Incorrect Correct answer

Ring topology

Correct Incorrect Correct answer

Bus topology

Correct Incorrect Correct answer

Star topology

Correct Incorrect Correct answer

You need to reduce broadcast traffic and create smaller broadcast domains on your network, but you are working with a tight budget.

Which of the following is the most cost-effective solution?

Use static IP addresses

Correct Incorrect Correct answer

Add more hubs

Correct Incorrect Correct answer

Implement more switches

Correct Incorrect Correct answer

Create VLANs

Correct Incorrect Correct answer

Which type of topology requires the greatest number of physical connections?
