In Question 11, suppose one computer is upgraded from Windows 7 Professional to Windows Server 2012 R2. Which networking model can the network now support that it could not support without the upgrade?
Star-bus topology
In Question 14, suppose a new switch is connected to the first switch by way of a network cable and three computers are connected to the new switch. Which network topology is now used?

A frame
What is a PDU called at the Link layer?
Answer: Segment Answer: Datagram Answer: Transport layer
What is a message called that is delivered by TCP? What is a message called that is delivered by UDP? At which layer do the two protocols work?
A Layer 2 switch belongs only to its local network, and a router belongs to two or more networks.
What is the fundamental distinction between a Layer 2 switch and a router?
A MAN covers a small geographical area, and a WAN covers a large geographical area.
What is the fundamental distinction between a MAN and a WAN?
