ASSESSMENT SCRIPT TESTED QUESTIONS
AND FULLY ACCURATE RESPONSES
⩥ What is a client?
Answer: Is the inout-output device at the user end. (I.E. clients
computer)
⩥ What is a circuit?
Answer: It is the pathway through which a message (data) travels. Think
everything in-between the server and client, connects them together.
⩥ What is a server?
Answer: Typically servers provide some service for the clients. (data
access, application logic, etc)
⩥ Types of networks:
Answer: LAN(local area network) - is a group of computers located in
the same general area.
Backbone Networks - larger, central networks connecting several LANs,
other BNs, and WANs. Typically span 100's of feet to several miles.
,WAN(wide area networks)- connect BNs and MANs (metropolitan area
networks). typically span hundreds or thousands of miles.
Intranets- Is a LAN that uses the same technology as the internet but is
only available to those inside the organization
Extranets- Use the same technology as the internet, but provided to
invited users
⩥ Two most important network models:
Answer: OSI (open systems interconnection reference)
Internet model
⩥ Internet Model
Answer: Most commonly used model of the two. Its the network model
that dominates current hardware and software.
Simple five layer
Collapses the top three layers of the OSI model into one layer. (
application layer, presentation layer, and session layer collapses down
into the application layer.)
, ⩥ Internet Model Layers
Answer: 1. Physical Layer
2. Data Link Layer
3. Network Layer
