NETWORKING SA2

QuestionAnswer
Which characteristic describes crosstalk? the distortion of the transmitted messages from signals carried in adjacent wires
A network administrator is designing a new network infrastructure that includes both wired and wireless connectivity. Under which situation would a wireless connection be recommended? The end-user device needs mobility when connecting to the network.

What is the equivalent to hexadecimal of the decimal 31? 1F
Although CSMA/CD is still a feature of Ethernet, why is it no longer necessary? the use of full-duplex capable Layer 2 switches
Which data link layer media access control method does Ethernet use? CSMA/CD
What identifier is used at the data link layer to uniquely identify an Ethernet device? MAC address
What type of physical topology can be created by connecting all Ethernet cables to a central device? star
What are the two sublayers of the OSI model data link layer? (Choose two.) MAC and LLC
Which two engineering organizations define open standards and protocols that apply to the data link layer? (Choose two.) Electronic Industries Alliance (EIA) and International Organization for Standardization (ISO)
Which statement describes the half-duplex mode of data transmission? Data that is transmitted over the network flows in one direction at a time.
What method is used to manage contention-based access on a wireless network? CSMA/CA
What are two services performed by the data link layer of the OSI model? (Choose two.) It provides media access control and performs error detection, and it accepts Layer 3 packets and encapsulates them into frames.
Which layer of the OSI model is responsible for specifying the encapsulation method used for specific types of media? data link
What are the two sizes (minimum and maximum) of an Ethernet frame? (Choose two.) 64 bytes and 1518 bytes
What statement describes a characteristic of MAC addresses? They must be globally unique.
Which function or operation is performed by the LLC sublayer? It communicates with upper protocol layers.
What is auto-MDIX? a feature that detects Ethernet cable type
What type of address is 01-00-5E-0A-00-02? an address that reaches a specific group of hosts
Which two characteristics describe Ethernet technology? (Choose two.) It is supported by IEEE 802.3 standards and it uses the CSMA/CD access control method.
Which network device has the primary function to send data to a specific destination based on the information found in the MAC address table? switch
What addressing information is recorded by a switch to build its MAC address table? the source Layer 2 address of incoming frames
Which statement is true about MAC addresses? The first three bytes are used by the vendor assigned OUI.
Which two functions or operations are performed by the MAC sublayer? (Choose two.) It is responsible for Media Access Control and it adds a header and trailer to form an OSI Layer 2 PDU.
Which type of UTP cable is used to connect a PC to a switch port? straight-through
What type of cable is used to connect a workstation serial port to a Cisco router console port? rollover
What is one advantage of using fiber optic cabling rather than copper cabling? It is able to carry signals much farther than copper cabling.
What is indicated by the term throughput? the measure of the usable data transferred across the media

What is the equivalent to hexadecimal of the decimal 21? 15
What does a router do after de-encapsulating a received frame? determines the best path
What is true concerning physical and logical topologies? Logical topologies refer to how a network transfers data between devices.
Which is a function of the Logical Link Control (LLC) sublayer? to identify which network layer protocol is being used
What attribute of a NIC would place it at the data link layer of the OSI model? MAC address
Which layer of the OSI model is responsible for specifying the encapsulation method used for specific types of media? data link
What is the special value assigned to the first 24 bits of a multicast MAC address? 01-00-5E
What happens to runt frames received by a Cisco Ethernet switch? The frame is dropped.
Which network device makes forwarding decisions based on the destination MAC address that is contained in the frame? switch
What will a host on an Ethernet network do if it receives a frame with a destination MAC address that does not match its own MAC address? It will discard the frame.

Use these flashcards to help memorize information. Look at the large card and try to recall what is on the other side. Then click the card to flip it. If you knew the answer, click the green Know box. Otherwise, click the red Don't know box.

When you've placed seven or more cards in the Don't know box, click "retry" to try those cards again.

If you've accidentally put the card in the wrong box, just click on the card to take it out of the box.

You can also use your keyboard to move the cards as follows:

If you are logged in to your account, this website will remember which cards you know and don't know so that they are in the same box the next time you log in.

When you need a break, try one of the other activities listed below the flashcards like Matching, Snowman, or Hungry Bug. Although it may feel like you're playing a game, your brain is still making more connections with the information to help you out.
