Unit Practice Test 5 (Chapter 9 Exam)
What is the complete range of TCP and UDP well-known ports?
0-1023
A PC is downloading a large file from a server. The TCP window is 1000 bytes. The server is sending the file using 100-byte segments. How many segments will the server send before it requires an acknowledgment from the PC?
10 segments
Which flag in the TCP header is used in response to a received FIN in order to terminate connectivity between two network devices?
ACK
Which two flags in the TCP header are used in a TCP three-way handshake to establish connectivity between two network devices? (Choose two.)
ACK SYN
What does a client do when it has UDP datagrams to send?
It just sends the datagrams.
Which two characteristics are associated with UDP sessions? (Choose two.)
Received data is unacknowledged Destination devices receive traffic with minimal delay
Which three application layer protocols use TCP? (Choose three.)
SMTP HTTP FTP
What happens if the first packet of a TFTP transfer is lost?
The TFTP application will retry the request if a reply is not received.
A host device is receiving live streaming video. How does the device account for video data that is lost during transmission?
The device will continue receiving the streaming video, but there may be a momentary disruption
What happens if part of an FTP message is not delivered to the destination?
The part of the FTP message that was lost is re-sent.
What does TCP do if the sending source detects network congestion on the path to the destination?
The source will decrease the amount of data that it sends before it must receive acknowledgements from the destination.
What is a characteristic of UDP?
UDP reassembles the received datagrams in the order they were received.
Why does HTTP use TCP as the transport layer protocol?
because HTTP requires reliable delivery
What type of information is included in the transport header?
destination and source port numbers
A host device needs to send a large video file across the network while providing data communication to other users. Which feature will allow different communication streams to occur at the same time, without having a single data stream using all available bandwidth?
multiplexing
What kind of port must be requested from IANA in order to be used with a specific application?
registered port
What information is used by TCP to reassemble and reorder received segments?
sequence numbers
Refer to the exhibit. Consider a datagram that originates on the PC and that is destined for the web server. Match the IP addresses and port numbers that are in that datagram to the description. (Not all options are used.)
source IP address - 192.168.1.2 destination IP address - 192.168.2.2 source port number - 2578 destination port number - 80
Which factor determines TCP window size?
the amount of data the destination can process at one time
What is a socket?
the combination of a source IP address and port number or a destination IP address and port number
During a TCP session, a destination device sends an acknowledgment number to the source device. What does the acknowledgment number represent?
the next byte that the destination expects to receive
When is UDP preferred to TCP?
when an application can tolerate some loss of data during transmission
What is a characteristic of a TCP server process?
There can be many ports open simultaneously on a server, one for each active server application.
