Which networking model is being used?

1) Closest to the end user. 2) The creation and maintenance of dialogue between source and destination applications.

What are two characteristics of the application layer of the TCP/IP model? (Choose two.)

Both models support devices in server and client roles.

What do the client/server and peer-to-peer network models have in common?

The File Transfer Protocol (FTP) is a standard network protocol used to transfer computer files between a client and server on a computer network. FTP is built on a client-server model architecture and uses separate control and data connections between the client and the server.

What is FTP?

Gnutella

What is a common protocol that is used with peer-to-peer applications such as WireShare, Bearshare, and Shareaza?

Messages are kept in the mail servers until they are manually deleted from the email client.

What is an advantage for small organizations of adopting IMAP instead of POP?

SMB clients can establish a long-term connection to the server.​

What is an advantage of SMB over FTP?​

A workstation initiates a DNS request when the user types www.cisco.com in the address bar of a web browser.

What is an example of network communication that uses the client-server model?

HTTPS

What is the acronym for the protocol that is used when securely communicating with a web server? ​

The network includes a dedicated server.

What is true about a client-server network?

Clients establish a long term connection to servers.

What is true about the Server Message Block protocol?

.com

What part of the URL, http://www.cisco.com/index.html, represents the top-level DNS domain?

the domain name mapped to mail exchange servers

What type of information is contained in a DNS MX record?

IMAP

Which application layer protocol uses message types such as GET, PUT, and POST?

nslookup

Which command is used to manually query a DNS server to resolve a specific host name?

application layer

Which layer in the TCP/IP model is used for formatting, compressing, and encrypting data?

a program that is running on an FTP server.

Which phrase describes an FTP daemon?

POP3

Which protocol can be used to transfer messages from an email server to an email client?

1) Session Layer 2) Application Layer 3) Presentation Layer

Which three layers of the OSI model provide similar network services to those provided by the application layer of the TCP/IP model? (Choose three.)

1) HTTP 2) MPEG 3) GIF

Which three protocols or standards are used at the application layer of the TCP/IP model? (Choose three.)

1) All hosts receive the message, but only a DHCP server replies. 2) The message comes from a client seeking an IP address. 3) The destination IP address is 255.255.255.255.

Which three statements describe a DHCP Discover message? (Choose three.)

1) DNS - resolves internet names to IP addresses. 2) Telnet - provides remote access to servers and networking devices.

Which two definitions accurately describe the associated application layer protocol? (Choose two.)

1) Forwarding name resolution requests between servers 2) Mapping name-to-IP addresses for internal hosts

Which two tasks can be performed by a local DNS server? (Choose two.)
