TERMS TO GET DOWN Flashcards
ARP
Resolves a MAC address using the IP address through a ARP broadcast
POP3
(Post Office Protocol)
- used to retrieve email from mail servers by email clients.
IGMP
(Internet Group Management Protocol)
- defines host groups, which then allows them to receive multicasts for their groups.
SNMP
(Simple Network Management Protocol)
- helps to manage complex networks by letting hosts exchange information with each other, which then can be retrieved by management software that can be used to monitor and manage the network.
SMTP
(Simple Mail Transfer Protocol)
- used to send mail between mail servers
RARP
Resolves an IP address by using the MAC address through a RARP broadcast
OSPF
(Open Shortest Path First)
-
RIP
(Routing Information Protocol)
- RIPv2 uses multicasts sent to the address 224.0.0.9
- Hop count is used as the metric. Maximum of 15 hops
- Can maintain up to 6 multiple paths to a network, only if the costs are the same. Support for 4 equal-cost routes is the default.
- Routers automatically share routing info with other routers.
- Less administration required.
- For small-medium networks
IGRP
?
What is the purpose for assigning an IP address on a switch?
A. provides local hosts with a default gateway address
B. allows remote management of the switch
C. allows the switch to respond to ARP requests between two hosts
D. ensures that hosts on the same LAN can communicate with each other
B. allows remote management of the switch

E. The network is not subnetted.
BD
What two things does a router do when it forwards a packet? (Choose two.)
A. switches the packet to the appropriate outgoing interfaces
B. computes the destination host address

B. CDP is a Cisco proprietary protocol.
C. CDP is a datalink layer protocol.
D. CDP is a network layer protocol.
E. CDP can discover directly connected neighboring Cisco devices.
F. CDP can discover Cisco devices that are not directly connected.
BCE
Which statements are true regarding ICMP packets? (Choose two.)
A. They acknowledge receipt of TCP segments.
B. They guarantee datagram delivery.
C. TRACERT uses ICMP packets.
D. They are encapsulated within IP datagrams.
E. They are encapsulated within UDP datagrams.
CD
What must occur before a workstation can exchange HTTP packets with a web server?
A. A UDP connection must be established between the workstation and its default gateway.
B. A UDP connection must be established between the workstation and the web server.
C. A TCP connection must be established between the workstation and its default gateway.
D. A TCP connection must be established between the workstation and the web server.
E. An ICMP connection must be established between the workstation and its default gateway.
F. An ICMP connection must be established between the workstation and the web server.
D
1000BaseLX
Uses fiber optic cabling+LC connectors and supports more than 550 meters.
1000BaseSX
Uses fiber optic cables and supports up to 550 meters.
1000BaseCX
Uses copper cables and supports up to 25 meters, typically used in wiring closets.
CSU/DSU
(Channel Service Unit/Data Service Unit)
-Physical layer device used in wide area networks to convert the CPE digital signals to what is understood by the provider’s switch.
-RJ-48 connector for integrated CSU/DSU routers,
DB-60 connector for single port routers, and
Smart Serial connector for two-port routers
CPE
(Customer Premises Equipment)
-Devices such as a telephone
BootP
(Bootstrap Protocol)
- Used by diskless hosts to get an IP address from a Bootstrap server
WIC
(WAN Interface Card)
-2 port WIC uses Smart Serial Cables, 1 port WIC uses a DB-60 connector
DTE
(Data Terminal Equipment)
- Usually a customer device: router or computer
- NO clock rate
DCE
(Data Communications Equipment)
- Usually the Service Provider Device: Cable Modem, DSL Modem, CSU/DSU
- Provides the Clock Rate
Telnet
- Establishes a remote connection with a destination device
- A successful test verifies Application-layer connectivity. Because Telnet relies on lower-layer protocols, a successful Telnet session also verifies Network-layer and TCP/IP configuration
- A successful Telnet test opens a remote connection to the target device
arp -d
Clears ARP cache
arp - a
Lists ARP cache
Straight-through Cable
Pin Position: 1 -- 1 2 -- 2 3 -- 3 6 -- 6
Crossover Cable
Pin Position: 1 -- 3 2 -- 6 3 -- 1 6 -- 2
Auto-MDI/MDIX
A feature newer switches have to determine whether to use Straight-through/Crossover and the internally change the sending and receiving pin positions.
AUI
(Attachment Unit Interface)
- Designed to connect External Transceiver for conversion to a specific media type (e.g. coaxial or fiber optic)
- Connector: DB-15 / DIX interface
Switch Interface:
Line Status - Down
Protocol - Down
A Physical Layer problem
Switch Interface:
Line Status - Up
Protocol Status - Down
Data Link layer connection/communication problem
