A college would like to implement a secured print solution so that print jobs do not
arrive at a printer until the printer is physically interacted with. This will help prevent
students from potentially picking up faculty print jobs. Which two physical security
solutions does the IT department consider to accomplish this?
Ans: -PIN code
-Badging
An organization conducts a weekly video conference from its home office to its field
locations. Recently, employees at the field locations have been complaining of poor
audio and video quality. Which protocol does an engineer monitor for performance
issues?
Ans: UDP

An organization looks to harden email services. The systems administrator uses
every possible option to help prevent SPAM and other anomalies. During the final
stages of configuration, the systems administrator creates a policy within the Domain
Name System (DNS) to handle authentication failures. Which record is being
configured?
Ans: DMARC (ensures that SPF and DKIM are being utilized effectively; specifies a
policy mechanism for senders to specify how authentication failures should be
treated)

An engineer plans a new wired infrastructure rollout that will support wireless
capabilities. The requirement includes the incorporation of access points that use 48V
of power and 13 watts. Which specific IEEE standard does the engineer implement?
Ans: 802.3af
(at 25W, bt 51W (type 3) 73W (type 4))
An engineer plans a fiber cable implementation between two campus buildings
about 50 kilometers apart. Due to the distance between the locations, the engineer
selects single-mode fiber. What specifications does the engineer need to consider
with this decision?
Ans: -small core, long distances, long wavelength
(Single-mode fiber (SMF) has a small core (8-10 microns) and is designed to carry a
long wavelength over long distances)
A printer technician troubleshoots a laser printer and determines that the exposing
