What information is contained in the unicast response to an ARP broadcast?

B will recognize that an ARP request is coming in. It'll respond to A with an ARP reply. This process is called an ARP request. The ARP reply comes back as a unicast intended directly for A. Station B is telling Station A, "So, you're asking for my MAC address? Well, here it is."

Which protocols are used to determine the IP address of a known MAC address?

Both BOOTP (Bootstrap Protocol) and RARP (Reverse Address Resolution Protocol) are used to discover the IP address of a device with a known MAC address. BOOTP is an enhancement to RARP, and it is more commonly implemented than RARP. As its name implies, BOOTP is used by computers as they boot to receive an IP address from a BOOTP server. The Address Resolution Protocol (ARP) is used to get the MAC address of a host from a known IP address.

Which of the following statements are true about bridges?

Bridges connect two network segments with the same network address. Bridges convert one type of transmission medium into another.

What is the function of the Physical layer of the OSI model? What is the corresponding layer in the TCP/IP model?

By the time it gets to the Physical layer, data is simply referred to as bits. The purpose of the bottom layer is to physically transmit these bits, which exist as information passed on to the frame. So it transmits everything that was converted into 1s and 0s onto a wired system or wireless network. The packets are encapsulated within frames and sent to the network as bits of data.

Is assigned by ICANN for a network service. Has port numbers ranging from 1024 to 49151.

How does TCP negotiate a connection with a remote host?

It needs to know which protocol to use on the Transport layer, and the Transport layer has to know which app on the Application layer it should pass the request off to. It's this port number, 80, that tells the Transport layer which application is being used above it.

Which two of the following statements accurately describe half-duplex Ethernet?

It uses collision detection and recovery. It sends both signals along the same wire.

You are deploying a new 10GB Ethernet network using Cat 6 cabling. Which of the following are true concerning this media?

PVC insulation surrounds each copper wire. It supports 10 GB Ethernet connections.

Which destination address and source address are identified in a frame header?

Segments are passed down to the internet layer. At this stage, the data receives the IP address of both the source and the destination. Once the internet layer has added the IP addresses, this entire thing is called a packet. It's also called an internet layer, or network layer, PDU. Next, this packet is brought down to the link layer. Its job is to add physical addressing. So, it adds MAC addresses, or media access control addresses, to the data. This is the destination, and this is the source. The source MAC address is the card you're sending from, and the destination MAC is the next network device in line, the one that gets you closer to your final destination.

What action does a router perform when it receives frames?

So, Router 1 takes the exact same packet it received and puts a new frame header in front. The source IP address and destination IP address are still there. This portion didn't change. It's the same packet that A created and sent to the router. The new frame contains the destination MAC address and the source MAC address for Router 1 and Router 2. This is the second hop of the journey. The first frame got the data from A to Router 1. This second frame takes the data from Router 1 to Router 2. This is a hop-by-hop mechanism. Every hop uses a different frame with different MAC addresses, but the packet information is preserved from end to end.

Which of the following are limitations of the TCP/IP model?

TCP/IP layers are theoretical and do not actually perform real functions. A particular protocol implementation may not represent every layer.

How does the Presentation layer ensure that data presented to the Application layer is in a compatible form?

The Presentation layer's primary purpose is to format data. The data you see on screen isn't how data on computer systems is stored and sent. The data is converted into a binary format.

What role does port assignments play in application-to-application communications?

The TCP/IP protocol stack uses port numbers to determine protocol use. Port or socket numbers are used to identify a service running on the server. For example, FTP uses ports 20 and 21 to send communications to the FTP service running on the server, while port number 80 is used for HTTP.

Which protocols are used by the Data Link layer?

The Data Link layer converts the packets into frames, adding physical device addressing information.

How are host-to-host connections managed?

The Internet layer is responsible for forwarding packets through multiple networks. This process is called routing. The Internet layer manages the host addressing and routing decisions to identify how packets traverse networks. The Internet layer is not concerned with reliable delivery of information. Instead, it relies on the Transport layer to establish a host-to-host communication channel and ensure information arrives correctly at the destination host

What happens if there are missing or damaged packets?

The Link layer converts the packets into frames, adding physical device addressing information and a frame check sequence (FCS) footer for error detection.

What are the TCP/IP encapsulation process steps on a sending host?

You could say that a frame is a packet with extra headers added to it on the bottom, and a packet is just a segment with extra fields and headers attached. A segment is encapsulated within a packet, and a packet is encapsulated within a frame.

Which of the following lists accurately describes TCP and UDP?

____:connectionless, unreliable, unsequenced, low overhead ____: connection-oriented, reliable, sequenced, high overhead

How does the TCP protocol differ from the UDP protocol?

are both Transport and Host-to-Host level protocols, but they have different characteristics.

How does TCP handle data sequencing?

breaks user data into segments, numbers each segment, places them in the correct sequence, and sends each one in order, waiting for an acknowledgement before sending the next segment.

What are MAC addresses? How are they used by the Link layer?

the network port in your workstation is going to have a physical address associated with it. Then two MAC addresses are added to the data from the Internet layer: your address, and the address of closest system you need to pass data through. The ___corresponds to the Physical and Data Link layers. It describes the physical layout of the network and how messages are formatted on the transmission medium. Sometimes, divided into the Data Link and Physical layers.

Which of the following is true of CSMA/CD?

A device with data to send first listens to the transmission medium to determine whether it is free. If collisions are detected, an interrupt jam signal is broadcast to stop all transmissions.

During network transmission, data is transferred to various routers, which forward the data to the appropriate network. If the source and destination network addresses reside on the same network, which protocol is used to determine the MAC address of the destination IP address?

What is a PDU? How do PDUs relate to TCP/IP layers?

Once the data has an HTTP GET request and a port number attached to it, it's commonly called a segment. Another name for it is the transport layer PDU, or protocol data unit. It holds the information that the transport layer added above.

When are ARP requests used?

Once the packet is built, ARP's purpose is to enable station A to dynamically discover the MAC address of Station B. If Station A has never talked to Station B, it won't know the MAC address. But, once a station has communicated with another node on the network, it'll remember the MAC address for future use.

Which of the following are general advantages of using routers on your network?

They both have Application, transport network, and link layer but OSI model breaks it down the application and link layer.

What functions are provided by the Internet layer?

is comparable to the Network layer of the OSI model. It is responsible for moving packets through a network. This involves the addressing of hosts and making routing decisions to identify how the packet traverses the network.

What information does the Transport layer add to data being transmitted?

layer does is add the destination port to your request. Port 80 is for HTTP, so that's going to be embedded within the data. Once the internet layer has added the IP addresses, this entire thing is called a packet. It's also called an internet layer, or network layer, PDU.

What are the TCP/IP de-encapsulation process steps?

This frame was sent through the network; maybe across multiple switches, or potentially multiple routers. It was finally received at the web server itself. The web server looks at this field, looks at the destination MAC address field, and sees its own number. So, it knows this card is intended for itself. It can then pass it up to its own internet layer. If its own IP address is confirmed in here, then it will also check other safety and reliability features if necessary. Once all the data is validated, it's sent up to the Transport layer that runs within the web server. It verifies the port number; in this case, it's port 80. This means the incoming request is intended as a web request. So, the Transport layer passes the data up to HTTP on the Application layer, which retrieves the page that we wanted.

How does data encapsulation facilitate data transmission?

To get the data from A to B, we created one packet. Router 1 and Router 2 examined this packet as it traversed the network. But, on each leg of the journey, a new frame was created to get it closer and closer. It finally made it all the way to B. In this case, one packet was encapsulated three times in three separate frames. In a real network, your final destination could be even farther away, maybe 17 hops or more.

Which is the primary role of a firewall?

To protect networks and workstations by allowing or denying network traffic. The firewall does this using a configured set of rules.
