Exam Master Pack 2025 | Most Recent Test Questions with Answers | COMPLETE & CORRECT
| MULTIPLE CHOICE!!
Local Area Network (LAN) - Contacted directly through a Dante switch
Wide Area Network (WAN) - Connects the network across a wider geographical area. Is reached
through a router (gateway)
What kind of notation do IP Addresses use? - Dotted-Quad or Dot Decimal Notation
Subnet - A group of local IP addresses
Subnet Mask - Helps determine what IP addresses are in our subnet
Should be an unbroken string of binary ones followed by zeros
A subnet mask of 255.255.255.0 can be abbreviated as "/24"
What is the range of numbers for IP addresses in dotted-quad form? - 0-255
What is the range of numbers we can actually use when assigning IP addresses in dotted-quad
form? - 1-254
Domain Name Service (DNS) - Translates domain names into IP addresses
If multiples are on a list, the first one to return an answer is followed
,Subnets reserved for use on a local network - 192 . 168 . ___ . ___
10 . ___ . ___ . ___
172 . 16-31 . ___ . ___
169 . 254 . ___ . ___
What are the two primary DHCP settings? - IP Range (a.k.a. DHCP pool) and Lease Time (e.g. 24
hours)
What is the priority option for automatic IP addressing for Dante devices? - DHCP Server
If no DHCP server is found for automatic IP addressing, what is the back up plan? - Link Local
How does Link Local work? - Assigns each device a random address in 169 . 254 . ___ . ___
Sends an ARP request to ensure that an address is available
Once Link Local address is set, we continue looking for DHCP Service
VLAN - Strategically isolates LANs on the same switch
Non-Blocking Architecture - The switch is not the bandwidth bottleneck in the network
Your only restriction is your individual port speed
Spanning Tree Protocol (STP) - A protocol that disables a second trunk line between the same
two switches to prevent a Broadcast Storm
, Broadcast Storm - An endless loop of broadcast information. Like microphone feedback but for
broadcast
Link Aggregation Group (LAG) - Allows trunk lines to be combined for more bandwidth
How can trunk lines contact multiple VLANs? - By "tagging" packets
It its best practice to have one untagged VLAN, the rest being tagged
TCP - Like "signature required" mail, the sender gets a notification that the message was
received
Appropriate when communications are likely to be interrupted, when missing a packet would
invalidate the date, or when timely delivery is a convenience rather than a necessity
UDP - Like "first class" mail, a message is put on the network and assumed to be delivered
successfully - no notification
Appropriate when communications are not likely to be interrupted (LAN), when a missing
packet in sequences can be overcome (error correction), or when timely delivery and/or low
overhead is a priority
UDP is ideal for real-time networks
Potential problems with TCP - Creates additional overhead from confirmation messages,
increasing the likelihood of problems (not ideal for live Dante systems)
When Dante sends media across a network, which can be used? (select two)
