DANTE LEVEL 3 EXAMS SCRIPT 2025/2026 QUESTIONS
AND ANSWERS RATED A+
✔✔What steps need to be taken in order to segment a broadcast domain? (select all
that apply) - ✔✔-Put the same type of devices into a VLAN
-Define VLAN as an IP subnet
✔✔SCENARIO: You notice that audio on your Dante network is not working as it
should, but only when multicast transmission is configured for audio. Your audio
network is on a converged enterprise network. After testing your Dante network, you
conclude that a firewall is dropping your multicast packets. What port would you ask the
IT administrator to unblock? - ✔✔UDP 4321
✔✔A unicast flow is created by a transmitter alone. - ✔✔False
✔✔Switches can have multiple MAC addresses mapped to an interface in their MAC
address table - ✔✔True
✔✔An application has a port/socket address which pertains to a transport protocol ,
which in turn is encapsulated into a packet, which has a/an [________] , which is then
encapsulated into an address frame which has a/an [________] . - ✔✔IP address, MAC
address
✔✔Requirements of Dante are completely satisfied by a COTS infrastructure - ✔✔True
✔✔What is the result of the following situation: Music is playing through a Dante system
that is using an external word clock. The word clock is connected to a single Dante
device, which has "Enable Sync to External" and "Preferred Master" checked in the
Dante Controller Clock Status tab, and is also correctly configured in the hardware
settings of the device. The word clock gets disconnected and... - ✔✔...the sound of
silence becomes readily apparent because the Dante devices mute due to the loss of
sync. (Clock master trying to chase the disconnected word clock)
✔✔A switch connects its interfaces together by referencing its [________] . - ✔✔MAC
address table?
✔✔You have purchased a Dante-enabled device with a Brooklyn2 inside. How many
unicast flows are needed to transport 64 audio channels? - ✔✔16 flows
✔✔QoS protects against too much bandwidth being used on a link. - ✔✔False
✔✔A reply to ARP whohas message is - ✔✔Unicast
, ✔✔It is recommended for the backplane of a switch to be able to accommodate full
bandwidth use of all ports in both directions. - ✔✔True
✔✔Dante uses ______ for clocking. - ✔✔PTP
✔✔SCENARIO: Your Dante network is live. When you power up Dante controller on
your laptop, you notice that only device names seem to show, and you are unable to
see channel names. What is the likely cause of this? - ✔✔Anti-virus firewall or other
security software
✔✔Collision domains are a practical concern on a switched network - ✔✔False
✔✔What is the key aim of a network? - ✔✔Interoperability
✔✔A [________] can either permit or block a/an [________] or a port on a particular
transport protocol. - ✔✔firewall, IP address
✔✔A network is a group of devices that connect and can interoperate together. -
✔✔True
✔✔The CPU in a switch can slow down multicast traffic when IGMP snooping is
enabled - ✔✔True
✔✔Switches can [________] data if there is contention on an interface. - ✔✔queue
✔✔OSI model is a __________. - ✔✔Conceptual model
✔✔When a Dante enabled device is plugged into a network, how does the Dante
Controller discover it? - ✔✔By listening to the device's announcement using mDNS
✔✔QoS protects against unexpected temporary peaks in bandwidth that may affect
time critical services. - ✔✔True
✔✔A Dante receiving device has a latency setting of 1ms. A Dante transmitting device
has a latency setting of 2ms. If a subscription is created between these units, when will
the audio playout of the receiving device? - ✔✔2 milli seconds
✔✔ARP stands for - ✔✔Address Resolution Protocol
✔✔The amount of bandwidth used by a multicast flow vary based on number of
channels. - ✔✔True
