The source port field identifies the running application or service that will handle data returning to the PC. UDP segments are encapsulated within IP packets for transport across the network. The UDP destination port number identifies the application or service on the server which will handle the data. Layer 4 port numbers identify the application or service which will handle the data. The source port number is added by the sending device and will be the destination port number when the requested information is returned. Layer 4 segments are encapsulated within IP packets. UDP, not TCP, is used when low overhead is needed. A source IP address, not a TCP source port number, identifies the sending host on the network. Destination port numbers are specific ports that a server application or service monitors for requests.
Data is being sent from a source PC to a destination server. Which three statements correctly describe the function of TCP or UDP in this situation?

Cut-Through has low latency may forward runt frames begins forwarding when the destination address is received. Store-and-Forward always stores the entire frame checks the CRC before forwarding checks the frame length before forwarding A store-and-forward switch always stores the entire frame before forwarding, and checks its CRC and frame length. A cut-through switch can forward frames before receiving the destination address field, thus presenting less latency than a store-and-forward switch. Because the frame can begin to be forwarded before it is completely received, the switch may transmit a corrupt or runt frame. All forwarding methods require a Layer 2 switch to forward broadcast frames.

Place the options in the following order:peer-to-peer network[+] no dedicated server is required[+] client and server roles are set on a per request basispeer-to-peer aplication[#] requires a specific user interface[#] a background service is required Peer-to-peer networks do not require the use of a dedicated server, and devices can assume both client and server roles simultaneously on a per request basis. Because they do not require formalized accounts or permissions, they are best used in limited situations. Peer-to-peer applications require a user interface and background service to be running, and can be used in more diverse situations.
Match a statement to the related network model. (Not all options are used.)
Layer 2 destination address = 00-00-0c-94-36-ab Layer 2 source address = 00-00-0c-94-36-bb Layer 3 destination address = 172.16.20.200 Layer 3 source address = 172.16.10.200
Refer to the exhibit. Host B on subnet Teachers transmits a packet to host D on subnet Students. Which Layer 2 and Layer 3 addresses are contained in the PDUs that are transmitted from host B to the router?
remove the Ethernet header and configure a new Layer 2 header before sending it out S0/0/0 When PC1 forms the various headers attached to the data one of those headers is the Layer 2 header. Because PC1 connects to an Ethernet network, an Ethernet header is used. The source MAC address will be the MAC address of PC1 and the destination MAC address will be that of G0/0 on R1. When R1 gets that information, the router removes the Layer 2 header and creates a new one for the type of network the data will be placed onto (the serial link).
Refer to the exhibit. If PC1 is sending a packet to PC2 and routing has been configured between the two routers, what will R1 do with the Ethernet frame header attached by PC1?
BB:BB:BB:BB:BB:BB When a host sends information to a distant network, the Layer 2 frame header will contain a source and destination MAC address. The source address will be the originating host device. The destination address will be the router interface that connects to the same network. In the case of host A sending information to host B, the source address is AA:AA:AA:AA:AA:AA and the destination address is the MAC address assigned to the R2 Ethernet interface, BB:BB:BB:BB:BB:BB.
Refer to the exhibit. If host A sends an IP packet to host B, what will the destination address be in the frame when it leaves host A?
There are 4 hops between this device and the device at 192.168.100.1. There is connectivity between this device and the device at 192.168.100.1. The output displays a successful Layer 3 connection between a host computer and a host at 19.168.100.1. It can be determined that 4 hops exist between them and the average transmission time is 1 milliseconds. Layer 3 connectivity does not necessarily mean that an application can run between the hosts.
Refer to the exhibit. On the basis of the output, which two statements about network connectivity are correct? (Choose two.)
PC2 will send an ARP reply with its MAC address. When a network device wants to communicate with another device on the same network, it sends a broadcast ARP request. In this case, the request will contain the IP address of PC2. The destination device (PC2) sends an ARP reply with its MAC address.
Refer to the exhibit. PC1 issues an ARP request because it needs to send a packet to PC2. In this scenario, what will happen next?
Security rules are applied to the default gateway device, preventing it from processing ping requests.

Neighbor Solicitation Router Advertisement
What are two ICMPv6 messages that are not present in ICMP for IPv4? (Choose two.)
does not require a dedicated end-to-end connection operates independently of the network media The Internet Protocol (IP) is a connectionless, best effort protocol. This means that IP requires no end-to-end connection nor does it guarantee delivery of packets. IP is also media independent, which means it operates independently of the network media carrying the packets
What are two characteristics of IP? (Choose two.)
improper termination low-quality cable or connectors
What are two common causes of signal degradation when using UTP cabling? (Choose two.)
If a host is ready to send a packet to a local destination device and it has the IP address but not the MAC address of the destination, it generates an ARP broadcast. If a device receiving an ARP request has the destination IPv4 address, it responds with an ARP reply.
What are two features of ARP? (Choose two.)
directing data packets to destination hosts on other networks providing end devices with a unique network identifier
What are two functions that are provided by the network layer?
The ARP request is sent as a broadcast, and will flood the entire subnet. All ARP request messages must be processed by all nodes on the local network. ARP requests are sent as broadcasts:(1) All nodes will receive them, and they will be processed by software, interrupting the CPU.(2) The switch forwards (floods) Layer 2 broadcasts to all ports. A switch does not change its MAC table based on ARP request or reply messages. The switch populates the MAC table using the source MAC address of all frames. The ARP payload is very small and does not overload the switch.
What are two problems that can be caused by a large number of ARP request and reply messages? (Choose two.)
software that is installed on a user device and collects information about the user
What characteristic describes adware?
applications that protect end devices from becoming infected with malicious software
What characteristic describes antispyware?
applications that protect end devices from becoming infected with malicious software
What characteristic describes antivirus software?
the use of stolen credentials to access private data
What characteristic describes identity theft?
software that is installed on a user device and collects information about the user
What characteristic describes spyware?
loss of signal strength as distance increases
What does the term "attenuation" mean in data communication?
Communication between the switch and remote users is encrypted. The transport input ssh command when entered on the switch vty (virtual terminal lines) will encrypt all inbound controlled telnet connections.
What happens when the transport input ssh command is entered on the switch vty lines?
Network capabilities are extended without requiring investment in new infrastructure, personnel, or software.
What is a benefit of using cloud computing in networking?
provides for the exchange of frames over a common local media
What is a function of the data link layer?
Messages are kept in the mail servers until they are manually deleted from the email client. IMAP and POP are protocols that are used to retrieve email messages. The advantage of using IMAP instead of POP is that when the user connects to an IMAP-capable server, copies of the messages are downloaded to the client application. IMAP then stores the email messages on the server until the user manually deletes those messages.
What is an advantage for small organizations of adopting IMAP instead of POP?
It shields the upper layer protocol from being aware of the physical medium to be used in the communication.
What is one main characteristic of the data link layer?
It decrements the value of the TTL field by 1 and if the result is 0, it discards the packet and sends a Time Exceeded message to the source host.
What mechanism is used by a router to prevent a received IPv4 packet from traveling endlessly on a network?
Allows for data transfers between a client and a file server.
What service is provided by FTP?
Retrieves email from the server by downloading the email to the local mail application of the client.
What service is provided by POP3?
255.255.255.192
What subnet mask is needed if an IPv4 network has 40 devices that need IP addresses and address space is not to be wasted?
twisting the wires together into pairs To help prevent the effects of crosstalk, UTP cable wires are twisted together into pairs. Twisting the wires together causes the magnetic fields of each wire to cancel each other out.
What technique is used with UTP cable to help protect against signal interference from crosstalk?
neighbor solicitations Neighbor solicitations are used by nodes to determine the link layer address of a neighbor, or to verify that a neighbor is still reachable via a cached link layer address. neighbor advertisements Neighbor advertisements are used by nodes to respond to a Neighbor Solicitation message.
What two ICMPv6 message types must be permitted through IPv6 access control lists to allow resolution of Layer 3 addresses to Layer 2 MAC addresses?
IP addresses Layer 1 statuses The command show ip interface brief shows the IP address of each interface, as well as the operational status of the interfaces at both Layer 1 and Layer 2. In order to see interface descriptions and speed and duplex settings, use the command show running-config interface. Next-hop addresses are displayed in the routing table with the command show ip route, and the MAC address of an interface can be seen with the command show interfaces.

Which information does the show startup-config command display?
FE80::/10 Link-local addresses are in the range of FE80::/10 to FEBF::/10. The original IPv6 specification defined site-local addresses and used the prefix range FEC0::/10, but these addresses were deprecated by the IETF in favor of unique local addresses. FDEE::/7 is a unique local address because it is in the range of FC00::/7 to FDFF::/7. IPv6 multicast addresses have the prefix FF00::/8.
Which range of link-local addresses can be assigned to an IPv6-enabled interface?
A student has two web browser windows open in order to access two web sites. The transport layer ensures the correct web page is delivered to the correct browser window. The source and destination port numbers are used to identify the correct application and window within that application
Which scenario describes a function provided by the transport layer?
192.168.1.64/26 For the subnet of 192.168.1.64/26, there are 6 bits for host addresses, yielding 64 possible addresses. However, the first and last subnets are the network and broadcast addresses for this subnet. Therefore, the range of host addresses for this subnet is 192.168.1.65 to 192.168.1.126. The other subnets do not contain the address 192.168.1.96 as a valid host address.
Which subnet would include the address 192.168.1.96 as a usable host address?
application session presentation The TCP/IP model consists of four layers: application, transport, internet, and network access. The OSI model consists of seven layers: application, presentation, session, transport, network, data link, and physical. The top three layers of the OSI model: application, presentation, and session map to the application layer of the TCP/IP model.
Which three layers of the OSI model map to the application layer of the TCP/IP model? (Choose three.)
route print netstat -r On a Windows host, the route print or netstat -r commands can be used to display the host routing table. Both commands generate the same output. On a router, the show ip route command is used to display the routing table. The netstat -s command is used to display per-protocol statistics. The tracert command is used to display the path that a packet travels to its destination.
Which two commands can be used on a Windows host to display the routing table?
enables IPv4 and IPv6 to utilize the same physical medium places information in the Ethernet frame that identifies which network layer protocol is being encapsulated by the frame The data link layer is actually divided into two sublayers: + Logical Link Control (LLC): This upper sublayer defines the software processes that provide services to the network layer protocols. It places information in the frame that identifies which network layer protocol is being used for the frame. This information allows multiple Layer 3 protocols, such as IPv4 and IPv6, to utilize the same network interface and media.+ Media Access Control (MAC): This lower sublayer defines the media access processes performed by the hardware. It provides data link layer addressing and delimiting of data according to the physical signaling requirements of the medium and the type of data link layer protocol in use.
Which two functions are performed at the LLC sublayer of the OSI Data Link Layer to facilitate Ethernet communication? (Choose two.)
POP, DNS
Which two protocols operate at the top layer of the TCP/IP protocol suite? (Choose two.)
NAT introduces problems for some applications that require end-to-end connectivity. NAT provides a solution to slow down the IPv4 address depletion.
Which two statements accurately describe an advantage or a disadvantage when deploying NAT for IPv4 in a network? (Choose two.)
Destination IP addresses in a packet header remain constant along the entire path to a target host. Destination and source MAC addresses have local significance and change every time a frame goes from one LAN to another.
Which two statements are correct about MAC and IP addresses during data transmission if NAT is not involved?
Directly connected interfaces will have two route source codes in the routing table: C and S. If a default static route is configured in the router, an entry will be included in the routing table with source code S.
Which two statements describe features of an IPv4 routing table on a router?
Capture traffic during peak utilization times to get a good representation of the different traffic types. Perform the capture on different network segments. Traffic flow patterns should be gathered during peak utilization times to get a good representation of the different traffic types. The capture should also be performed on different network segments because some traffic will be local to a particular segment.
Which two statements describe how to assess traffic flow patterns and network traffic types using a protocol analyzer? (Choose two.)
Trojan horse A Trojan horse is software that does something harmful, but is hidden in legitimate software code. A denial of service (DoS) attack results in interruption of network services to users, network devices, or applications. A brute-force attack commonly involves trying to access a network device. A buffer overflow occurs when a program attempts to store more data in a memory location than it can hold.
Which type of security threat would be responsible if a spreadsheet add-on disables the local software firewall?
to enable the switch to be managed remotely A switch, as a Layer 2 device, does not need an IP address to transmit frames to attached devices. However, when a switch is accessed remotely through the network, it must have a Layer 3 address. The IP address must be applied to a virtual interface rather than to a physical interface. Routers, not switches, function as default gateways.
Why would a Layer 2 switch need an IP address?
