Q

What do Network Time Protocol (NTP) and Simple Network Time Protocol (SNTP) do?

A

They use UDP to synchronize the clocks of devices on a network.

If a device requires NTP/SNTP, then enter the IP address for an NTP/SNTP server onto that device.

Q

What does Internet Control Message Protocol (ICMP) do?

A

It works at Layer 3 to handle low-level tasks such as the ping utility sending a single ICMP message called an “echo request” to an IP address you specify.

19
Q

Define: Listening Port/ Open Port

A

A socket that is prepared to respond to any traffic destined for that socket’s port number.

Every serving application has a listening port.

20
Q

What is a process ID (PID)?

A

Every running program on your computer gets a process ID (PID), a number used by the operating system to track all the running programs.

21
Q

What does the netstat -b switch do?

A

It tells netstat to give the name of the running program behind the PID (process ID).

netstat -anob

22
Q

What does the Telnet protocol do?

A

It enables command-line remote access to another computer. The sent data is not encrypted.

23
Q

What does the Secure Shell (SSH) protocol do?

A

It enables remote access via terminal emulation to a remote computer. Both the login and data transmittal are encrypted.

24
Q

What does the Simple Mail Transfer Protocol (SMTP) do?

A

It sends e-mail from clients and between e-mail servers.

25
Q

What does Post Office Protocol version 3 (POP3) do?

A

It retrieves e-mail from e-mail servers.

26
Q

What does Internet Message Access Protocol version 4 (IMAP4) do?

A

It retrieves e-mail from an e-mail server and enables synchronization of mail among many devices.

It also supports folders that you can place on the IMAP4 server to organize your e-mail.

27
Q

What do relational databases do?

A

They store records in tables and those tables can refer to the data in other tables to enable users to mine rich information from that database.

28
Q

What is Structured Query Language (SQL) used for?

A

Accessing databases.

29
Q

What does the File Transfer Protocol (FTP) do?

A

It transfers files on the Internet, but does not use encryption by default and sends login information in cleartext.

30
Q

What is Hypertext Transfer Protocol (HTTP)?

A

It is the underlying protocol used by Web servers.

HTTP defines the commands that browsers (and other software) use to ask Web servers for things and how the server will format what it sends back to the browser.

31
Q

What does Hypertext Transfer Protocol Secure (HTTPS) do?

A

It enables secure connections between clients and servers by using Transport Layer Security (TLS).

32
Q

The latest version of Secure Sockets Layer (SSL), ____ uses encryption to set up a secure private connection.

A

TLS or Transport Layer Security
