FSNA Module 2 – Intro to Networking: Questions With
In-Depth Solutions
Switch Correct Answer - BEST device to connect a node or client into a
wired network
MAC address device use Correct Answer - used and stored this by
switches to make intelligent switching decisions.
Media Correct Answer - The physical network connections between
network devices, either wireless or wired
Router Correct Answer - Type of device that uses IP addresses to
determine where to send network traffic. Also known as the default gateway.
Client Correct Answer - Type of device considered a workstation used by
an end user which provides the user with access to the network
Wireless Access Point (WAP) Correct Answer - Type of device that
provides a client with network access over wireless media
Server Correct Answer - Type of device that can be local to the network
or in a remote location and provides services to clients such as sharing of
resources and files
PAN (Personal Area Network) Correct Answer - Smallest type of
network that traditionally uses short range wireless technology such as
Bluetooth
CAN (Campus Area Network) Correct Answer - Type of network that is
usually comprised of multiple LANs, spans multiple buildings in a small
geographic location, and heavily uses high-speed core and distribution
switches due to high volume and high traffic
MAN (Metropolitan Area Network) Correct Answer - Type of network is
composed of both LANs and WANs, and typically connects over multiple city
blocks or cities
, WAN (Wide Area Network) Correct Answer - Type of network that can
span across cities and countries
SAN (storage area network) Correct Answer - Type of network that
provides high-speed access between sets of servers and storage environments
in a redundant manner
Ethernet Frame Correct Answer - A package of data that includes not
only the raw data, or "payload," but also the sender's and recipient's
addressing and control information. This package of data generated at the
Data Link layer of the OSI model and are issued to the network at the Physical
layer.
bit Correct Answer - A single unit of information or data in a computer,
typically represented as a 0 or 1
Byte Correct Answer - A group of eight bits
Bytes measure Correct Answer - Measures of file size or memory
Frame Correct Answer - This payload or packetized data is 1500 Bytes
or 12,000 bits in size
bits measure Correct Answer - Measures of data speed rates
Network Correct Answer - 2 or more computers that exchange
information via a data link or transmission media
Node Correct Answer - A end user device ( host ) or infrastructure
device
Parts of a Network Correct Answer - end user device
infrastructure device
media
protocols
LAN (Local Area Network) Correct Answer - A network of computers
and other devices that is confined to a relatively small space, such as one
building or even one office.
