How much data can be encapsulated into a normal sized Ethernet frame before it is sent over the network? 64 to 1518 bytes 32 to 1500 bytes 0 to 1024 bytes 46 to 1500 bytes
46 to 1500 bytes
Host-A has an Ethernet frame to send to Host-B on the same network. Host-A knows the IP address of Host-B but not its MAC address. What message will Host-A send to determine the MAC address of Host B? ARP discovery ARP request ARP reply ARP broadcast
ARP request
The destination MAC address of an Ethernet broadcast in hexadecimal is: 48 one bits 48 F digits 1111.1111.1111 FFFF.FFFF.FFFF
FFFF.FFFF.FFFF
Which destination address is used in an ARP request frame? FFFF.FFFF.FFFF 255.255.255.255 AAAA.AAAA.AAAA 0.0.0.0 the physical address of the destination host
FFFF.FFFF.FFFF
Host-A sends an ARP request and receives an ARP reply from Host-B. What is in the ARP reply that Host-A did not know and needs to communicate with Host-B? Host B's MAC address Host B's IP address Host B's IP and MAC addresses
Host B's MAC address
Host-B receives an ARP request. Host-B will return an ARP Reply if: The IP address in the ARP request matches its own IP address. The MAC address in the ARP request matches its own MAC address. The IP and MAC addresses in the ARP request matches its own IP and MAC addresses.
IP address in the ARP request matches its own IP address
When an Ethernet frame is sent out an interface, the destination MAC address indicates: The MAC address of the device, which is on this network, that will receive the Ethernet frame. The MAC address of the NIC card of a device, which is on this network or another network, that will receive the Ethernet frame. The MAC address of the NIC card that sent the Ethernet frame. The MAC address of the router.
MAC address of the device, which is on this network, that will receive the ethernet frame
Which design layer provides connectivity to devices on an Ethernet LAN? core distribution access physical
access
Which two devices would commonly be found at the access layer of the hierarchical enterprise LAN design model? (Choose two.) Layer 3 device firewall access point Layer 2 switch modular switch
access point layer 2 switch
Which statement is true about broadcast and collision domains? Adding a switch to a network will increase the size of the broadcast domain. The more interfaces a router has the larger the resulting broadcast domain. Adding a router to a network will increase the size of the collision domain. The size of the collision domain can be reduced by adding hubs to a network.
adding a switch to a network will increase the size of the broadcast domain
An ARP request is sent out as: a broadcast, so all devices on the same network will receive it a broadcast, so all devices on the network and other networks will receive it a unicast, so only the device with the proper IP address will receive it a unicast, so only the device with the proper MAC address will receive it
broadcast, so all devices on the same network will receive it
Ethernet switches make their forwarding decision based on what field of the Ethernet frame? SFD (Start Frame Delimiter) Destination MAC address Source MAC address Type/Length FCS
destination MAC address
The process of prepending protocol information with information from another protocol is called: framing encapsulation encoding packetizing
encapsulation
Which term refers to the process of placing one message format inside another message format? segmenting manipulation encapsulation encoding
encapsulation
When a switch receives an Ethernet frame and the destination MAC address of that frame is not in its MAC address table, the switch will: Add the Destination MAC address to the table. Add the Source MAC address to the table. Forward the frame out all ports except in the incoming port. Drop the frame.
forward the frame out all ports except in the incoming port
When an Ethernet switch receives a frame that is broadcast, it will: Forward the frame out all ports except the incoming port Forward the frame out all ports including the incoming port Forward the frame out only ports that need the broadcast Drop the frame
forward the frame out all ports except the incoming port
Which three fields are found in an 802.3 Ethernet frame? (Choose three.) frame check sequence destination physical address source logical address destination logical address media type identifier source physical address
frame check sequence destination physical address source physical address
What is the purpose of the core layer in the Cisco hierarchical network design model? aggregation point for smaller networks high-speed backbone switching flow control between networks network access to end devices
high-speed backbone switching
Which portion of an IP address uniquely identifies that device on that network? physical logical network host
host
The Ethernet protocol is at what layer of the OSI Model? Layer 1 Physical Layer 2 Data Link Layer 3 Network Layer 4 Transport
layer 2 data link
An IP address is considered what type of address: physical logical
logical
Ethernet hubs are considered: cutting-edge obsolete a security device a wireless device
obsolete
What is the purpose of ARP in an IPv4 network? to forward data onward based on the destination IP address to obtain a specific MAC address when an IP address is known to build the MAC address table in a switch from the information that is gathered to forward data onward based on the destination MAC address.
obtain a specific MAC address when an IP address is known
An Ethernet MAC address is considered what type of address: physical logical
