Test Out Practice Questions
You've implemented a network where hosts are assigned specific roles, such as file
sharing and printing roles. Other hosts access those resources, but they don't host
services of their own.
Which type of network do you have? - answerClient-server
Which of the following geographic network types is typically managed by a city as a
public utility? - answerMetropolitan area network (MAN)
You've implemented a network where each device provides all other devices on the
network with access to shared files.
Which type of network do you have? - answerPeer-to-peer
You have a network that uses a logical bus topology. How do messages travel through
the network? - answerMessages are broadcast to all devices connected to the network.
You have a network that uses a logical ring topology. How do messages travel through
the network? - answerMessages travel from one device to the next until they reach the
destination device.
Your manager has asked you to implement a wired network infrastructure that will
accommodate failed connections. You don't have a large budget, so you decide to
provide redundancy for only a handful of critical devices.
Which of the following network topologies should you implement? - answerPartial mesh
Which of the following topologies connects all devices to a trunk cable? - answerBus
Your manager has asked you to implement a network infrastructure that will
accommodate failed connections.
Which of the following network topologies provides redundancy for a failed link? -
answerMesh
Which of the following topologies connects each device to a neighboring device? -
answerRing

physical topology are you using? - answerStar
In the OSI model, which of the following functions are performed at the Application
layer? (Select two.) - answerEnabling of communication between network clients and

Which of the following are included as part of the Data Link layer specifications? (Select
two.) - answerPhysical network device identification
Data transmission between hosts
In the OSI model, what is the primary function of the Network layer? - answerRoute
messages between networks.
What is the basic purpose of the OSI Physical layer? - answerCoordinate rules for
sending and receiving electrical signals.
In the OSI model, which of the following functions are performed at the Presentation
layer? (Select two.) - answerData format specifications
Data encryption and compression
Which of the following tasks is associated with the Session layer? - answerConnection
establishment
During TCP/IP communication between two network hosts, information is encapsulated
on the sending host and decapsulated on the receiving host using the OSI model.

the right. - answerTransport layer
Segments
Network layer
Packets
Data Link layer
Frames
Physical layer
Bits
Which of the following functions are performed by the OSI Transport layer? (Select
three.) - answerEnd-to-end flow control
