ITN CCNA 1 v6.0 Chapter 3 Exam

What is an advantage of network devices using open standard protocols? Network communications is confined to data transfers between devices from the same vendor. A client host and a server running different operating systems can successfully exchange data. Internet access can be controlled by a single ISP in each market. Competition and innovation are limited to specific types of products.

A client host and a server running different operating systems can successfully exchange data. Explanation: An advantage of network devices implementing open standard protocols, such as from the TCP/IP suite, is that clients and servers running different operating systems can communicate with each other. Open standard protocols facilitate innovation and competition between vendors and across markets, and can reduce the occurrence of monopolies in networking markets.

What three application layer protocols are part of the TCP/IP protocol suite? (Choose three.) ARP DHCP DNS FTP NAT PPP

DHCP DNS FTP Explanation: DNS, DHCP, and FTP are all application layer protocols in the TCP/IP protocol suite. ARP and PPP are network access layer protocols, and NAT is an internet layer protocol in the TCP/IP protocol suite.

A web client is sending a request for a webpage to a web server. From the perspective of the client, what is the correct order of the protocol stack that is used to prepare the request for transmission?

HTTP, TCP, IP, Ethernet Explanation: 1. HTTP governs the way that a web server and client interact. 2. TCP manages individual conversations between web servers and clients. 3. IP is responsible for delivery across the best path to the destination. 4. Ethernet takes the packet from IP and formats it for transmission.

What is an advantage of using standards to develop and implement protocols? A particular protocol can only be implemented by one manufacturer. Products from different manufacturers can interoperate successfully. Different manufacturers are free to apply different requirements when implementing a protocol. Standards provide flexibility for manufacturers to create devices that comply with unique requirements.

Products from different manufacturers can interoperate successfully. Explanation: The TCP/IP internet layer provides the same function as the OSI network layer. The transport layer of both the TCP/IP and OSI models provides the same function. The TCP/IP application layer includes the same functions as OSI Layers 5, 6, and 7.

Which statement is true about the TCP/IP and OSI models? The TCP/IP transport layer and OSI Layer 4 provide similar services and functions. The TCP/IP network access layer has similar functions to the OSI network layer. The OSI Layer 7 and the TCP/IP application layer provide identical functions. The first three OSI layers describe general services that are also provided by the TCP/IP internet layer.

The TCP/IP transport layer and OSI Layer 4 provide similar services and functions. Explanation: The TCP/IP internet layer provides the same function as the OSI network layer. The transport layer of both the TCP/IP and OSI models provides the same function. The TCP/IP application layer includes the same functions as OSI Layers 5, 6, and 7.

What will happen if the default gateway address is incorrectly configured on a host?

The host cannot communicate with hosts in other networks. Explanation: When a host needs to send a message to another host located on the same network, it can forward the message directly. However, when a host needs to send a message to a remote network, it must use the router, also known as the default gateway. This is because the data link frame address of the remote destination host cannot be used directly. Instead, the IP packet has to be sent to the router (default gateway) and the router will forward the packet toward its destination. Therefore, if the default gateway is incorrectly configured, the host can communicate with other hosts on the same network, but not with hosts on remote networks.

Which statement is correct about network protocols? Network protocols define the type of hardware that is used and how it is mounted in racks. They define how messages are exchanged between the source and the destination. They all function in the network access layer of TCP/IP. They are only required for exchange of messages between devices on remote networks.

They define how messages are exchanged between the source and the destination. Explanation: Network protocols are implemented in hardware, or software, or both. They interact with each other within different layers of a protocol stack. Protocols have nothing to do with the installation of the network equipment. Network protocols are required to exchange information between source and destination devices in both local and remote networks.

Which three layers of the OSI model are comparable in function to the application layer of the TCP/IP model? (Choose three.)

application presentation session Explanation: 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.

What type of communication will send a message to all devices on a local area network?

broadcast Explanation: Broadcast communication is a one-to-all communication. A unicast communication is a one-to-one communication. Multicast is a one-to-many communication where the message is delivered to a specific group of hosts. Allcast is not a standard term to describe message delivery.

Which address does a NIC use when deciding whether to accept a frame?

destination MAC address

What process is used to place one message inside another message for transfer from the source to the destination?

encapsulation Explanation: Encapsulation is the process of placing one message format into another message format. An example is how a packet is placed in its entirety into the data field as it is encapsulated into a frame.

What method can be used by two computers to ensure that packets are not dropped because too much data is being sent too quickly?

flow control Explanation: In order for two computers to be able to communicate effectively, there must be a mechanism that allows both the source and destination to set the timing of the transmission and receipt of data. Flow control allows for this by ensuring that data is not sent too fast for it to be received properly.

Which PDU format is used when bits are received from the network medium by the NIC of a host?

frame Explanation: When received at the physical layer of a host, the bits are formatted into a frame at the data link layer. A packet is the PDU at the network layer. A segment is the PDU at the transport layer. A file is a data structure that may be used at the application layer.

At which layer of the OSI model would a logical address be encapsulated?

network layer Explanation: Logical addresses, also known as IP addresses, are added at the network layer. Physical addresses are edded at the data link layer. Port addresses are added at the transport layer. No addresses are added at the physical layer.

What are proprietary protocols?

protocols developed by organizations who have control over their definition and operation Explanation: Proprietary protocols have their definition and operation controlled by one company or vendor. Some of them can be used by different organizations with permission from the owner. The TCP/IP protocol suite is an open standard, not a proprietary protocol.

Which PDU is processed when a host computer is de-encapsulating a message at the transport layer of the TCP/IP model?

segment Explanation: At the transport layer, a host computer will de-encapsulate a segment to reassemble data to an acceptable format by the application layer protocol of the TCP/IP model.

Which characteristic describes the default gateway of a host computer? the logical address of the router interface on the same network as the host computer the physical address of the switch interface connected to the host computer the physical address of the router interface on the same network as the host computer the logical address assigned to the switch interface connected to the router

the logical address of the router interface on the same network as the host computer Explanation: The default gateway is the IP address of an interface on the router on the same network as the sending host.
