Telecommunications 2 Flashcards
You’ve implemented a network where hosts are assigned specific roles, such as file sharing and printing roles. Other hosts access those resources, but they don’t host services of their own.
Which type of network do you have?
Client-server
Which of the following geographic network types is typically managed by a city as a public utility?
Metropolitan area network (MAN)
You’ve implemented a network where each device provides all other devices on the network with access to shared files.
Which type of network do you have?
Peer-to-peer
You have a network that uses a logical bus topology. How do messages travel through the network?
Messages are broadcast to all devices connected to the network.
You have a network that uses a logical ring topology. How do messages travel through the network?
Messages travel from one device to the next until they reach the destination device.
Your manager has asked you to implement a wired network infrastructure that will accommodate failed connections. You don’t have a large budget, so you decide to provide redundancy for only a handful of critical devices.
Partial mesh
Which of the following topologies connects all devices to a trunk cable?
Bus
Your manager has asked you to implement a network infrastructure that will accommodate failed connections.
Which of the following network topologies provides redundancy for a failed link?
Mesh
Which of the following topologies connects each device to a neighboring device?
Ring
You have a small network that uses a switch to connect multiple devices. Which physical topology are you using?
Star
In the OSI model, which of the following functions are performed at the Application layer? (Select two.)
Enabling of communication between network clients and services.
Integration of network functionality into the host operating system.
Which of the following are included as part of the Data Link layer specifications? (Select two.)
Data transmission between hosts
Physical network device identification
In the OSI model, what is the primary function of the Network layer?
Route messages between networks.
What is the basic purpose of the OSI Physical layer?
Coordinate rules for sending and receiving electrical signals.
In the OSI model, which of the following functions are performed at the Presentation layer? (Select two.)
Data encryption and compression
Data format specifications
Which of the following tasks is associated with the Session layer?
Connection establishment
During TCP/IP communication between two network hosts, information is encapsulated on the sending host and decapsulated on the receiving host using the OSI model.
Match the information format on the left with the appropriate layer of the OSI model on the right.

What is the purpose of a frame check sequence (FCS) footer?
Checksum error detection
Which of the following is the process of breaking a message into packets, adding controls and other information, and then transmitting the message through the transmission medium?
Encapsulation
Which term does the OSI model use that’s different from the TCP/IP model in reference to the terms frame, packet, and segment?
Protocol data unit (PDU)
Match each TCP/IP layers with its function.
Breaks the data into pieces.
Transport
Prepares the data to be sent.
Application
Adds physical addresses.
Link
Adds logical addresses.
Internet
