Which flag in the TCP header is used in response to a received FIN in order to terminate connectivity between two network devices?

ACK

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

Both models support devices in server and client roles.

What is true about the Server Message Block protocol?

Clients establish a long term connection to servers.

Which protocol or service uses UDP for a client-to-server communication and TCP for server-to-server communication?

DNS

Which two protocols may devices use in the application process that sends email? (Choose two.)

DNS SMTP

Which two characteristics are associated with UDP sessions? (Choose two.)

Destination devices receive traffic with minimal delay Received data is unacknowledged.

Which three protocols operate at the application layer of the TCP/IP model? (Choose three.)

FTP POP3 DHCP

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

Gnutella

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

HTTP

Which protocol is used by a client to communicate securely with a web server?

HTTPS

How are port numbers used in the TCP/IP encapsulation process?

If multiple conversations occur that are using the same service, the source port number is used to track the separate conversations.

What does a client do when it has UDP datagrams to send?

It just sends the datagrams.

Which three fields are used in a UDP segment header? (Choose three.)

Length, Source Port, Checksum

Which applications or services allow hosts to act as client and server at the same time?

P2P applications

What is an advantage of SMB over FTP?​

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

A manufacturing company subscribes to certain hosted services from its ISP. The services that are required include hosted world wide web, file transfer, and e-mail. Which protocols represent these three key applications? (Choose three.)

SMTP FTP HTTP

Which three application layer protocols use TCP? (Choose three.)

SMTP FTP HTTP

Which transport layer feature is used to guarantee session establishment?

TCP 3-way handshake

Which action is performed by a client when establishing communication with a server via the use of UDP at the transport layer?

The client randomly selects a source port number.

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

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

What is a characteristic of UDP?

UDP reassembles the received datagrams in the order they were received.

Which three statements characterize UDP? (Choose three.)

UDP relies on application layer protocols for error detection. UDP provides basic connectionless transport layer functions. UDP is a low overhead protocol that does not provide sequencing or flow control mechanisms.

Which OSI layer provides the interface between the applications used to communicate and the underlying network over which messages are transmitted?

application

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

application

applications that can tolerate some data loss, but require little or no delay applications that handle reliability themselves

Why does HTTP use TCP as the transport layer protocol?

because HTTP requires reliable delivery
