Question
Answer
Two systems on the same network may share the same MAC address. T or F   False  
🗑
In a wired network, a charge on a wire represents a zero while no charge represents a one. T or F   False  
🗑
A NIC is not concerned about the contents of the data part of a frame. T or F   True  
🗑
The network administrator assigns the divisor or the key used in a cyclic redundancy check. T or F   False  
🗑
When a frame arrives at the hub, the hub makes an exact copy of the frame and sends it to every other system on the network. T or F   True  
🗑
When the NIC sends a frame that contains the broadcast address, every NIC on the network processes that frame. T or F   True  
🗑
A router allows you to connect networks with different types of cabling or frames. T or F   True  
🗑
Routers use logical addresses as their unique identifiers. T or F   True  
🗑
A network protocol is special software that allows a network to use logical addressing in order to move data from one subnet to another. T or F   True  
🗑
How many layers does the OSI model contain?   7  
🗑
How long is a MAC address?   12 hexadecimal characters  
🗑
A MAC address is composed of which two parts?   the organizationally unique identifier and the unique device ID of the NIC  
🗑
Which of the following is another name for a MAC address?   physical  
🗑
NICs send and receive binary data as pulses of all of the following except ____. a. electricity b. radio waves c. gamma rays d. light   c. gamma rays  
🗑
What must match in the communication between all NICs on a network?   MAC address  
🗑
What is length of the typical frame?   1500 bytes of data  
🗑
What best describes what happens to frames when the hub sends them to the NICs on the network?   The frames are received by every NIC, but only the NIC with the matching MAC address  
🗑
Where does the CRC come from in a network frame?   the sending NIC attaches it  
🗑
What is a broadcast MAC address?   FF-FF-FF-FF-FF-FF  
🗑
Routers have which of the following capabilities?   They allow you to connect networks with different types of cabling or frames.  
🗑
Which statement best describes an IP address?   It is a unique dotted decimal number assigned to every network node  
🗑
Which standards organization is named for the Greek word for "equal"?   ISO  
🗑
Which layer of the OSI model manages the connections between machines on the network?   Data Link  
🗑
When it receives data from the upper layers, which layer of the OSI model assembles the data into smaller pieces called packets?   Network  
🗑
Which layer of the OSI model uses routers and IP addresses to ensure that packets arrive at the correct system?   Network  
🗑
Which layer of the OSI model adds source and destination MAC addresses to frames?   Data Link  
🗑
In some networks data moves over radio waves, which fall into which layer of the OSI model?   Physical  
🗑
What best describes Logical Link Control?   It is a sublayer of the data link layer.  
🗑
Anything that moves data from one system to another, such as cabling or radio waves, is part of this layer of the OSI model.   Layer 1  
🗑
Which layer of the OSI model is the only layer divided into two sublayers?   Data Link

🗑
What device do you need to split a large network into smaller ones?   router  
🗑
How does the receiving station on a network use the CRC to verify that it received accurate data?   It uses the same divisor as the sending station to find the same remainder.  
🗑
What is the network layer unique identifier assigned to each device on a TCP/IP network?   IP address  
🗑
Routers function at which layer of the OSI model?   Network  
🗑
