CMIT 265 lesson 9
What configuration on a layer 2 switch is used to define broadcast domains where they would not exist
naturally on their own? - ANSWER VLAN
You are using network firewall in your enterprise infrastructure. This firewall requires you to define
which connections are permitted outbound. Once you do so, the appropriate and expected return data
flows are dynamically allowed through the firewall. Which firewall characteristic does this scenario
describe? - ANSWER Stateful
What networking device often uses signatures to help protect a network from known malicious attacks?
- ANSWER IPS
How many collision domains do the switch with 12 ports have? - ANSWER 12
In a router that has 12 ports, how many broadcast domains does the router have? - ANSWER 12
What are the differences between an Ethernet bridge and an Ethernet switch? - ANSWER Switches uses
ASICs to make forwarding decisions, whereas bridges make their forwarding decisions in
software./Switches usually have higher port densities than bridges.
A router operating at layer 3 primarily makes its forwarding decisions based on what address? - ANSWER
Destination IP address
Which network infrastructure device primarily makes forwarding decisions based on layer 2 MAC
addresses? - ANSWER Switch
Which devices can act as both a content cache and a URL filter and is configured in the client browser of
an end-user system? - ANSWER Proxy server
Which IoT technology is specialized for monitoring sensor data is owned by Garmin? - ANSWER ANT+
