FSNA (Protocols And Networking Terms) – Questions
With Efficient Solutions
LACP (Link Aggregation Control Protocol) Correct Answer - A network
specification that enables the bundling of several physical ports together to
form a single logical channel.
R.I.P. Correct Answer - Routing Information Protocol - one of the most
used routing protocols used in network routing configurations.
router-rip Correct Answer - Global command that moves the user into
RIP configuration mode
Unicast Correct Answer - a form of message delivery in which a message
is delivered to a single destination
Multicast Correct Answer - a form of transmission in which a message is
delivered to a group of hosts
broadcast Correct Answer - a form of transmission in which a message is
delivered to all hosts on a network
Broadcast Domain Correct Answer - A logical area in a computer
network where any node connected to the computer network can directly
transmit to any other node in the domain without a central routing device.
ARP Correct Answer - Address Resolution Protocol. An Internet protocol
used to map an IP address to a MAC address. Defined in RFC 826.
ARP cache/ARP table Correct Answer - Temporary storage of MAC
addresses recently contacted.
-The ARP cache holds the MAC address of a host and this enables the message
to be sent directly to the destination MAC address without the computer
having to issue an ARP request for MAC address
Gratuitous ARP Correct Answer - - source IP and destination IP are the
IP of the device announcing its IP
- no reply is generated
, TCP/IP Correct Answer - Transmission Control Protocol/Internet
Protocol. Protocol that connects computers to the Internet. Tells computers
how to exchange information over the Internet.
UDP (User Datagram Protocol) Correct Answer - Protocol that operates
instead of TCP in applications where delivery speed is important and quality
can be sacrificed.
netstat command Correct Answer - Can display a variety of information
about IP-based connections on a Windows or UNIX host.
Class A IPv4 Address Range Correct Answer - 1-126 default mask
255.0.0.0
Class B IPv4 Address Range Correct Answer - 128-191 default mask
255.255.0.0
Class C IPv4 Address Range Correct Answer - 192-223 default mask
255.255.255.0
loopback address Correct Answer - 127.0.0.1
Class D IP Range Correct Answer - 224-239 multicasting
Class E IP Range Correct Answer - 240-255.255.255.254 experimental
DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol) Correct Answer - A
network service that provides automatic
assignment of IP addresses and other TCP /IP configuration information.
DHCP Port Number Correct Answer - UDP 67, 68
APIPA (Automatic Private IP Addressing) Correct Answer - A service
that enables a DHCP client
computer to configure itself automatically
with an IP address on the 169.254.0.0
network in case no DHCP servers respond to the client's DHCP discover
broadcast. Cannot leave local network with this range.
