Protocol Analyzer

You have been instructed to capture and analyze packets on a server. What tool will allow you to do this?

Netstat -an

You need to install a router on your company's network that will allow access to the Internet. What layer of the OSI does this device reside on?

Layer 4 (Transport Layer)

You run a netstat -an command in the command prompt and notice many connections being made that say TCP in the left-most column. What layer of the OSI is TCP referring to?

Your manager wants you to allow HTTP and HTTPS connections to the company web server. In order to do this , you need to open inbound ports __________ and ___________.

Media Access Control (MAC) address

a unique identifier assigned to network adapters by the manufacturer. This address is six octets in length and is written in hexadecimal.

Layer 3 Switch

determines paths for data using logical addressing (IP addresses) instead of physical addressing (MAC addresses).

Open Systems Interconnection (OSI)

helps network engineers, network administrators, and systems engineers define how data networking actually works from one computer to another, regardless of where the computer is or what software it runs.

includes but is not limited to cables, jacks, patch panels, punch blocks, hubs, and MAUs.

Address Resolution Protocol/ARP Table

layer 3 protocol that resolves or translates IP addresses to MAC addresses, allowing connectivity between the layer 3 IP system and the layer 2 Ethernet system.
