Which of the following means to use a network protocol to prioritize 1/1

certain types of traffic over others? *
Quality of Service (QoS)
Network Interface Card (NIC)
Roaming Aggressiveness
Transmit Power
Feedback
Quality of Service (Qo5) means using a network protocol to prioritize certain types of
traffic over others. Enterprise networks can
use QoS protocols to make sure traffic such as Voice over IP calling or video conferencing
is given higher priority than traffic where
the timing of packets is less important, such as ordinary file downloads.
The NIC joins a network by connecting the network adapter to a switch or wireless access
point. For proper end user device
configuration, the card settings should be configured to match the capabilities of the
network appliance.
Roaming Aggressiveness is when the adapter starts to move out of range of one access
point; it might try to connect to another one
with a better signal.
Transmit Power sets the radio power level. It is typically set to the highest possible by
default.
A new Wifi router is installed at home. What are some settings that can 0/1
be configured to provide the minimum layer of security and the latest
router features ? (Select two) *
Encryption
Firmware Update
Service Set ID (SSID)
String Passphrase
Correct answer
Firmware Update
String Passphrase
Feedback
Encryption is important, but in most cases, a default encryption method is already set, out
of the box. The default encryption allows
tor quick and immediate use of the router.
Updating the device firmware will provide the latest router features and even updated
security patches, if applicable.
The Service Set 1D (SSID) is a name set up on the Wifi router for users to quickly identify
and connect to it. The SSID can be
broadcast or hidden from public view.
A strong passphrase is the minimum layer of security required so that only users with the
passphrase can access the Wifi router
This prevents potential hackers from gaining easy access to the Wireless Local Area
Network (WLAN).
What is a remote access tool that allows a user to ask for help from a 0/1
technician or co-worker? *
Remote Desktop
Remote Assistance
Remote Credential Guard
Telnet
Correct answer
Remote Assistance
Feedback
Remote Desktop allows a remote user to connect to a desktop machine. Ihe desktop
machine functions as a terminal server and the
dial-in machine as a Windows terminal. Ihis allows the remote user to work as though
physically connected to the dialed in
workstation.
Remote Assistance allows a user to ask for help from a technician or co-worker. The
"helper" can then connect and join the session
with the user. This session can include an interactive desktop, whereby the helper can
control the system of the user
If Remote Desktop is used to connect to a machine that has been compromised by

malware, the credentials of the user account
used to make the connection becomes highly vulnerable. Remote Credential Guard isa
means of mitigating this risk.
Telnet is not a remote access tool but is a command-line terminal emulation protocol and
program.
Which of these are firewall settings? (Select three) * 0/1
Post Forwarding
Create PTR Records
MAC Filtering
Content Filtering/Parental Controls
Correct answer
Post Forwarding
MAC Filtering
Content Filtering/Parental Controls
Feedback
Port forwarding means that the router takes requests from the Internet for a particular
protocol and sends them to a designated
host on the Local Area Network (LAN). Port forwarding is possible on a firewall.
PTR records are known as pointer records and are created in the reverse lookup zone on a
DNS (Domain Naming System) server. This
is not a firewall setting.
MAC filtering is a firewall setting where firewall, switches and access points can be
configured either with whitelists of allowed
MACs or blacklists of prohibited MACs.
Content filtering/parental controls are firewall settings which block websites and services
on the basis of keywords or site rating and
classification services.
What network connection uses an analog modem to dial another modem 0/1
on the Internet Service Provider (ISP) remote access server, which then
transfers the data onto the ISP's network and to and from the wider
Internet? *
Wireless WAN (Cellular)
Dial Up
Virtual Private Network (VPN)
SOHO (small office/home office)
Correct answer
Dial Up
Feedback
The Wireless WAN (Cellular) internet access refers to using an adapter to link to a cellular
phone provider's network via the nearest
available transmitter (base station).
The Dial Up connection uses an analog modem to dial another modem on the ISP's remote
access server, which then transfers the
data onto the ISP's network and to and from the wider Internet.
A Virtual Private Network (VPN) is a "tunnel" through the Internet. It allows a remote
computer to join the local network securely.
Most residential and small office networks connect to the Internet via a S0HO "router".
In an organization, which physical configuration is a means of 0/1

establishing a more secure network? *
Demilitarized Zone (DMZ)
Universal Plug and Play (UPnP)
Port Triggering
Whitelist/Blacklist
Correct answer
Demilitarized Zone (DMZ)
Feedback
In an organization, a Demilitarized Zone (DMZ) is a means of establishing a more secure

configuration. The idea of a DMZ is that
hosts placed within it are untrusted by the local network zone.
Services that require complex firewall configuration can use the Universal Plug and Play
(UPnP) framework to send instructions to
the firewall with the correct configuration parameters.
Port Triggering is used to set up applications that require more than one port.
Whitelists/blacklists are not physical configurations, but are firewall settings that work on
the basis of blacklisting URLs that are
known to harbor a particular type of content, whereas whitelisting a site means that it will
be accessible even if a filter is applied.

A Small Office Home Office (SOHO) Local Area Network (LAN) is a 0/1
business-oriented network. Which of these are common SOHO network
hardware? (Select all that apply) *
Modem
Router
Switch
Access Point
Correct answer
Modem
Router
Switch
Access Point
Feedback
A modem is a common SOHO network hardware that connects to the service provider
cabling and transfers frames over the link.
he modem type must be matched to the network type.
A router is a common SOHO network hardware that forwards packets over the WAN
(Internet) interface if they do not have a local
destination IP address. Some appliances may provide the ability to configure local
subnets, though this is not typical of the devices
supplied by the service providers
A Switch is a common SOHO network hardware that allows local computers and other
host types to connect to the network via RJ-
45 ports. This will be an unmanaged switch, so no configuration is necessary.
An access point is a common SOHO network hardware that allows hosts to connect to the
network over Wi-Fi
Which Secure Shell (SSH) method is when a client submits credentials 0/1
that are verified by the SSH server either against a local user database or
using an authentication server? *
Kerberos
Host-based authentication
Public Key authentication
Username/Password
Correct answer
Username/Password
Feedback
Kerberos allows Single Sign On (Sso) on a network that runs the Kerberos authentication
protocol. Windows Active Directory
domain networks use Kerberos.
Host-based authentication is when the server is configured with a list of authorized client
public keys. The client requests
authentication using one of these keys and the server generates a challenge with the
public key. The client must use the matching
private key it holds to decrypt the challenge and complete the authentication process. This
provides non-interactive login but there
is considerable risk from intrusion if a client host's private key is compromised.
Public key authentication cannot be used with fine-grained access controls as the access
is granted to a single user account. The
same sort of public key authentication method can be used for each user account. The
user's private key can be configured with a
passphrase that must be input to access the key, providing an additional measure of
protection compared to host-based
authentication.
Username/password is when the client submits credentials that are verified by the SSH
server either against a local user database or
using an authentication server.
Which ipconfig switch and arguments forces a Dynamic Host 1/1

Configuration Protocol (DHCP) client to renew the lease it has for an
Internet Protocol (1P) address? *
ipconfig /all
ipconfig /release AdapterName
ipconfig /renew AdapterName
ipconfig /displaydns
Feedback
The ipconfig switch and argument ipconfig/all displays detailed configuration, including
DHCP and Domain Name System (DNS)
servers, MAC address, and NetBlOS status.
The ipconfig switch and argument ipconftig/release AdapterName releases the IP address
obtained from a DHCP server so that the
network adapter(s) will no longer have an IP address.
The ipconfig switch and argument ipconfig/renew AdapterName forces a DHCP client to
renew the lease it has for an IP address.
The ipconfig switch and argument ipconfig/displaydns displays the DNS resolver cache.
This contains host and domain names that
have been queried recently. Caching the name to IP mappings reduces network traffic.
