1. What is the logical group of Windows Servers controlling the network access to a group of computers also
known by?
a. Client
b. RAID
c. Router
d. Domain
ANSWER: d
FEEDBACK: a. Incorrect. A computer making a request from another is called the client.
b. Incorrect. RAID is used as a backup by servers so that if one hard drive fails, another
one automatically takes its place.
c. Incorrect. A router is a switching device for networks, which is able to route network
packets based on their addresses to other networks or devices.

2. Which of the following statements is true?
a. Physical topologies mostly refer to how software controls access to network resources.
b. In a peer-to-peer network model, each computer controls its own administration, resources, and
security.
c. In a general scenario, if a network supports fewer than 15 computers, a client-server network model
is the way to go.
d. Logical topologies mostly refer to how computers work together with radio signals and other
devices to form the physical network.
ANSWER: b
FEEDBACK: a. Incorrect. This statement stands true for logical topologies instead of physical
topologies.
b. Correct. This statement is true.
c. Incorrect. In such a scenario, generally a peer-to-peer network model is preferred.

for the entire group of computers?
a. Active Directory
b. Clients
c. Workgroups
d. RAID
ANSWER: a
FEEDBACK: a. Correct. Active Directory or AD is a centralized directory database that contains user
account information and security for the entire group of computers.
b. Incorrect. A computer making a request from another is called the client.
c. Incorrect. In a workgroup, all the computers are peers and so no computer has control
over another computer.
d. Incorrect. RAID or Redundant Array of Independent Disks is used as a backup by servers
so that if one hard drive fails, another one automatically takes its place.

c. Problems on the network can be monitored, diagnosed, and fixed from one location.
d. Access to multiple shared resources can be centrally granted to a single user or a group of users.
ANSWER: b
FEEDBACK: a. Incorrect. This statement is not applicable to a P2P network model because in a P2P
network model, each computer controls its own administration, resources, and security.
b. Correct. P2P networks are very simple to configure as they are mostly used for a network
that supports fewer than 15 computers.

5. Pisces Ltd. is a small logistics firm operating out of Los Angeles. The organization has a small array of seven
computers for the functioning of its administration. They have requested a network engineer from Softnet
Solutions to suggest why they should оpt for a P2P network model instead of a client-server network model. In
this scеnario, which of the following statements would be the appropriate reason for Pisces Ltd. to opt for a
peer-to-peer network model according to you?
a. Peer-to-peer networks are scalable and so they are beneficial.
b. Peer-to-peer networks generally have secured access points preventing unauthorized access.
c. A network operating system is much more expensive than a desktop operating system.
d. A peer-to-peer network model allows network problems to be diagnosed and monitored from a
single place.
ANSWER: c
FEEDBACK: a. Incorrect. P2P networks are not scalable, which means, as a peer-to-peer network grows
larger, adding or changing significant elements of the network may be difficult.
b. Incorrect. They are not necessarily secure, meaning that in simple installations, data and
other resources shared by network users can be easily discovered and used by
unauthorized people.
c. Correct. As Pisces Ltd. is a small logistics firm and since the client-server model is an
expensive model when compared to the P2P model, desktop operating system would be
beneficial to the firm from that aspect. A network operating system, such as Windows
Server 2019, is much more expensive than a desktop operating system, such as
Windows 10.
d. Incorrect. In a client-server network model, problems on the network can be monitored,
diagnosed, and often fixed from one location but not in a peer-to-peer model.

6. 6. You are a senior рrogrammer for Google Solutions Ltd. and you have been tasked with ensuring that in a
scenario where a hard disk fails, thе servers must have a backup to fill it in automatically. Which of the
following would you apply to solve this issue at hand?
a. AD
b. Hypervisor
c. RAID
d. Workgroup
ANSWER: c
FEEDBACK: a. Incorrect. The centralized directory database that contains user account information and
security for the entire group of computers is known as Active Directory and would not
serve the purpose in such a scenario.
b. Incorrect. Hypervisors are software that runs virtualized devices on a cloud platform as a
NOS. It won't solve the issue at hand.
c. Correct. RAID or Redundant Array of Independent Disks is used as a backup by servers
so that if one hard drive fails, another one automatically takes its place.
