Sec13 Ch17 - Quiz on Display Technologies: Which is a monitor backlight technology? (LCD, LED, OLED, Nit)

A

LEDs are a monitor backlight technology. LCDs don’t make their own light (thus the need for a backlight). OLEDs make their own light (they don’t need a backlight). Nit is a unit used to measure monitor brightness.

140
Q

Sec15 Ch19 - 73 NAT: Adv and disadv of NATS

A

Upside: don’t need to give public IP address to each end-user. Downsides of NAT: 1) slow things down a little bit; 2) anything inside the LAN is invisible to the internet. So can’t put things like web servers in there.

141
Q

Sec15 Ch19 - 73 NAT: Gateway router connections

197
Q

Sec15 Ch19 - 81 Routers: Troubleshoot router DHCP

A

If IPv4 address shows 192.254.x.x, we know this router is not passing DHCP. Then, needs to go to user’s manual and find out default IP address, then statically set the ip address that matches that range. If 192.168.0.1 is the default ip address of the router, then I will set 192.168.0.x of anything except x=1. Then should be able to connect.

198
Q

Sec15 Ch19 - 82 Basic Router Configuration: Initial router configuration

A

Configure both the WAN and LAN connections on your router. Avoid default settings for basic configurations (IP, SSID, password, etc). Don’t create too large of an DHCP pool. Don’t turn on remote management. Leave DNS blank as typicall just use ISP’s DNS server.

199
Q

Sec15 Ch19 - 82 Basic Router Configuration: DHCP reservations

A

DHCP reservations set aside IP addresses in the DHCP pool. But it is actually not necessary in most cases. For exampe, can just use the single digits for setting static IP for file server or camera configured that don’t want IP to change. Then, use the DHCP range to set 10 or above to automatically assign dynamic IPs for other computing devices.

Q

Sec15 Ch19 - Network Troubleshooting: No connectivity

A

You cannot get to whatever resource that you want to get to. First, check if you are physically connected. Patch cable plug to back of your computer. Do you have good link light. If all good, second thing to check is IP addressing. If you are a DHCP client should be a non-issue. However, if there is device with static IP, that there could possibly be IP conflict. Also ping your cable and see your system.

Q

Sec15 Ch19 - Network Troubleshooting: Limited connectivity

A

DHCP screamer. Run ipconfig and check IPv4 address and if see 169.254.x.x address, then problem with DHCP server. Let say your normal IP is 192.168.4.x, then one day you get on and see 192.168.7.x . Scary error. Somebody else has plugged a DHCP server into the LAN and passing out bad information. Then, you must trace and find that box which can be a real challenge.

Sec15 Ch19 - Network Troubleshooting: Unavailable resources

A

There are resources that I can normally get to and now that I can’t get to. I used to be able to get that folder all the time and now I can’t. Then ping the system and see if you can. If not that you may have problem for the shared resource itself. Possible that NTFS / network shared permission to unplug you from the shared resource.

Q

Sec15 Ch19 - Network Troubleshooting: Slow transfer speeds

A

Can show up in wired network. Most times need to fire up a task manager, and take a look at how hard your network card is spiking up. If spiking up, and go to the processes that eat up the network bandwidth and take it out. This is also instance where QoS settings can be really handy. Set your router or switch to give higher priority for the QoS that’s important.
