56
Q

What is Stateless Address Autoconfiguration (SLAAC)

A

A method of transporting an IPv6 packet over an IPv4 network

61
Q

What is the difference between a 3 tier and collapsed core architecture

A

3 tier includes an access, distribution and core layer. Collapsed core condenses core and distribution in one layer.

62
Q

A

Cat 3 - 10 Mbps Cat 4 - 20 Mbps Cat 5 - 100 Mbps Fast ethernet Cat 5e - 1000 Mbps Gigabit eth Cat 6 - 2500 Mbps

63
Q

What kind of header is this

A

TCP

64
Q

What kind of header is this

A

UDP

65
Q

What type of header is this

A

IP header

66
Q

In a TCP header, what is the source & destination port used for

A

source port - port number of application on host sending data

destination port - port number of application on the destination host

67
Q

On a tcp header, what is the sequence number used for

A

Number used by TCP to put data back in correct order

68
Q

What is a TCP acknowledgement number

A

The value is the tcp octect that is expected next

69
Q

What is the TCP header length

A

indicates wheres the data begins

70
Q

What is the TCP reserved field

A

Always set to 0

71
Q

What are the TCP code bits/flags

A

Controls functions used to set up and terminate session

72
Q

What is the tcp window field

A

The window size the send is willing to accept in octects

73
Q

What is the tcp checksum field

A

Performs CRC check, used because TCP doesn’t trust the lower layers and checks everything. Checks header and data fields.

74
Q

What is the TCP urgent field

A

Valid only if urgent pointer in the code bits is set. If so, value indicates offset from current sequence number in octets, where the segment of nonurgent data begins

75
Q

What is the TCP options field

A

May be 0 meaning no options are set, or a multiple of 32

A

Contains a 4 bit binary value identifying the IP packet version

78
Q

In an IPv4 header, what does the field Differentiated Services do

A

used to determine the priority of each packet

formally called Type of service

79
Q

In an IPv4 header, what does the TTL field do

A

is used to limit lifetime of a packet, commonly referred to as hop count

80
Q

In an IPv4 header, what does the protocol field do

A

indicates the data payload type that the packet is carrying, which enables the network layer to pass the data to the appropriate upper layer protocol
