ACP Prep EXAMS WITH CORRECT
ANSWERS
1. Firewall - ANSWER-A system designed to prevent unauthorized access
from entering a private network. This creates a safety barrier from
public to private networks
2. Common Firewall Hardware - ANSWER-Cisco Firepower
Fortinet FortiGate
Netgear ProSafe
Palo Alto
SonicWall
Sophos
Watchguard
3. Hub - ANSWER-a device that is meant to connect all of your devices
together on an internal network. It has mulitiple oirts that connect
ethernet from network devices
4. MAC - ANSWER-Media Access Control
5. What is a Media Access Control (MAC)? - ANSWER-MAC is a unique
identifier assigned to a network interface controller (NIC) for use as a
network address in communications within a network
6. Hub / Switches - ANSWER-Used to exchange data within a LAN. Not
used for outside their own network because they can't read I address.
Hubs sound information everywhere whereas switches go to specific
areas
, 7. Switch - ANSWER-a device that has multiple ports that accepts
ethernet connections from network devices. It is intelligent and stores

network
9. Wireless Access Point (WAP) - ANSWER-Relays data between a wired

10. Subnets - ANSWER-stands for subnetwork. It is a smaller network
within a larger one. They are created by using routers. People use
subnets to elevate the excess of traffic because the broadcasts do not
go past the routers
11. Virtual Local Area Network (VLAN) - ANSWER-A logical group of
workstations, servers, and network devices that appear to be on the
same LAN despite their geographical distribution.
12. What do the black lines on the map indicate? - ANSWER-1. SNMP
has not been turned on on a network device.
13. 2. There is a layer 2 device (switch or hub) on the network that
does not support SNMP.
14. 3. Inferred connections; Auvik can ping devices but it cannot
guarantee the physical connection information.
15. What is expected to happen when you click on a network
element node? - ANSWER-Go to the device dashboard
