You are implementing a SOHO network for a local business. The ISP has already installed and connected a cable modem for the business. The business has four computers that need to communicate with each other and the internet. The ISP's cable modem has only one RJ45 port. You need to set up the network within the following parameters: You must spend as little money as possible. You must not purchase unnecessary equipment. Computers need to have a gigabit connection to the network. New devices should not require management or configuration. You examine each computer and notice that only one of the four computers has a wireless NIC. They all have Ethernet NICs. What should you purchase?

An unmanaged switch and CAT 5e cabling

You are moving a client to a new location within an Ethernet network. Previous to the move, the client system did not have difficulty accessing the network. During the relocation, you attach patch cables from the client system to the wall jack and from the patch panel to the switch. Once connected, you do not get a link light on the network card or the switch. You swap out the cable running between the patch panel and the switch with a known good one, but you still cannot connect. Which of the following might you suspect is the problem?

Failed patch cable between the client system and wall jack

Which of the following troubleshooting actions are you MOST likely to perform first?

Replace the network card in the user's computer.

You have purchased a new router that you need to configure. You need to connect a workstation to the router's console port to complete the configuration tasks. Which type of cable would you most likely use?

Single-mode fiber, 10GBaseLR standards

You need to connect a workstation to a switch using a regular port on the switch (not an uplink port). The switch does not support auto-MDI. Which type of cable should you use?

Straight-through

Angela is the network administrator for a rapidly growing company with a 100BaseT network. Users have recently complained about slow file transfers. While checking network traffic, Angela discovers a high number of collisions. Which connectivity device would BEST reduce the number of collisions and allow future growth?

Switch

Class B network

TCP/IP is a network that uses addresses from 128 to 191 and supports up to 16,384 subnets with 65,534 unique hosts each. 8 bits identifies the network

Class A network

This IP class is used where there are a large number of hosts.

VLSM

Variable length subnet masking a segmented piece of a larger network strategy where all subnet masks can have varying sizes

VLAN

Virtual local area network. A VLAN can logically group several different computers together, or logically separate computers, without regard to their physical location. It is possible to create multiple VLANs with a single switch.

cache

a chip-based computer component that makes retrieving data from memory more efficient at acts as temporary storage over that the computer's processor can retrieve data more easily.

DNS records

a database of records used to map a URL to an IP address. DNS records are stored in the DNS server and work to help users connect to their website

Unicast

a form of message delivery in which a message is delivered to a single destination

subnetting

a net work inside a network, they make networks more efficient, through subnetting, network traffic can travel shorter distance without passing through unnecessary routers to reach its destination

DHCP(Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol)

a network protocol that is used to configure network devices to communicate with an IP network

Octet

each of the decimal numbers in an IP address

Advantages of CIDR

enables routers to reach network traffic destinations much more quickly. Also allows the amalgamation of subnets into a supernet for more efficient network routing. One routing table entry represents the entire aggregation of networks.

subnet mask

is used to divide an IP address into 2 parts 1st part- Identifies the host computer 2nd part- identifies the network to which it belongs,

Multicast

simultaneous transmission of multiple channels of compressed content or the same content but at different times
