MIS 307 Exam 1
In TCP/IP, the parts of the IP address that are used as the network and host addresses are fixed, so the network and host addresses can be determined without more information.
False
In step 5 of the DHCP process, the server sends a REQUEST (or DHCPREQUEST) packet, letting the client know that it intends to use the address.
False
Internet Message Access Protocol (IMAP) or Post Office Protocol (POP) are protocols used by a client to send messages from a mail server.
False
Polling is the process of permitting all clients to transmit or receive at any time
False
Star-Ring topology is most commonly used to implement wireless networks?
False
TCP includes a sequence number to keep track of the total number of packets sent.
False
The Internet's Transmission Control Protocol (TCP) uses the MTU to determine the minimum size of each packet in any transmission.
False
The application layer is the seventh layer of the Internet model and specifies the type of connection and the electrical signals that pass through it.
False
The top-level DNS servers delegate to hundreds of thousands of other top-level DNS servers.
False
Using HTTP version 1.0 a keep-alive: tells the server "please keep this connection open, I'll request more"
False
With Post Office Protocol (v3, therefore POP 3) emails remain on the mail server
False
With contention, a computer does not have to wait before it can transmit. A computer can transmit at anytime.
False
A destination port number at the transport layer identifies which application on a computer should receive the data transmission.
True
An ARP entry is usually learned and is kept on a device for a certain ammount of time, as long as it is being continually used.
True
Because there is a limit on the length of a frame that the data link layer can transmit from node to node, the transport layer breaks up the message from the application layer into several smaller segments.
True
DHCP dynamically assigns an IP address to a computer.
True
For the requests from the Web browser to be understood by the Web server, they must use the same standard protocol or language.
True
HTTP response status codes indicate whether a specific HTTP request has been successfully completed.
True
In the OSI model, the application layer provides a set of utilities for applications and is the end user's access to the network.
True
Radio data transmission requires that each device has a radio receiver/transmitter and uses a specific frequency.
True
The DNS root servers have only one job: to delegate name resolution to other DNS servers.
True
The data link layer accepts messages from the network layer and controls the hardware that transmits them.
True
With Client-Based Architecture, application software on the client computers contains presentation, application, and data access logic
True
Network layer functions include
identifying all hosts in the network
A protocol data unit (PDU) is a term used in telecommunications that refers to
information added or removed by a layer of the Internet model
The hexidecimal number 4A01 when converted to binary is:
0100101000000001
Select a valid IPV6 address
2001:db8:1f70:999:de8:7648:3a49:6e8
HTTPS uses port number
443
A(n) _________ is a specially formatted request used to perform IP address to data link address resolution.
Address Resolution Protocol request
The most common Error Detection Method is......
Cyclical Redundancy Check
The most widely used LAN protocol is:
Ethernet
A physical circuit refers to the transmission characteristics of the connection, such as the speed at which data is being sent through the connection.
False
DNS is normally responsible for translating IP address to host names.
False
Digital transmission produces more errors than analog transmission.
False
Each network interface on your computer is identified by a series of letters known as a MAC address
False
IP packets provide guaranteed delivery over the network.
False
IPv6 uses 32-bit addresses as opposed to the 128-bit addresses used by IPv4 allowing for a substantially larger number of possible addresses.
False
A URL is nothing more than the address of a given unique resource on the Web.
True
The newer form of IP, version 6 (IPv6):
Has an increased address size from 32 bits to 128 bits
What do the twists in twisted pair cabling do to improve network communications?
Reduces a specific type of interference, called EMI.
_________ is the process of determining the path that a message will travel from sending computer to receiving computer.
Routing
In DHCP, how does your computer finally choose an IP address?
Sends the request to the DHCP server
The fourth layer of the OSI model is called the __________ layer.
Transport
What is the most common type of cabling used in networks?
Twisted pairs
In NDP Neighbor Solicitation does the following task;
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.
When TCP/IP translates a network layer address into a data link layer address, it sends a special ____________ to all computers in the subnet.
broadcast message
An endpoint is a
combination of an IP address and a port number
Network Address Translation
enables private IP networks that use unregistered IP addresses to connect to the Internet.
