Win 7 Config Study Guide Chapter 7 Flashcards
You are the network administrator for a large organization that has decided to implement DirectAccess. What are some of the requirements needed to install DirectAccess? (Choose all that apply.)
A. Windows Server 2008 R2 running the DirectAccess feature
B. Windows certificate authority server
C. DNS
D. WINS
A, B, C. To implement DirectAccess, your network must have a Windows Server 2008 R2 machine with the DirectAccess feature installed. You must also have a certificate authority (CA) server to issue a certificate to the DirectAccess clients. You must also have a domain controller and DNS server.
You are the network administrator for a midsize company that uses Windows Server 2008 R2 and Windows 7. All Windows 7 machines receive their IP address from DHCP. You have a Windows 7 machine and need to identify its IPv6 address. How can you accomplish this task? (Choose all that apply.)
A. Click Details from the network connection status.
B. Type ipconfig /all at the command prompt.
C. Type ipconfig /view at the command prompt.
D. Choose Properties of My Computer.
A, B. You can see what the IPv6 address is by clicking the Details button from the network connection status or by typing ipconfig /all. There is no such command asipconfig /view, and the My Computer properties will not show IP address configuration information.
You are hired by friends to set up a network in their home. They have four machines in their home that are all connected by a router. There is currently no network in place. They want to be able to share audio and video files among their family members. How can you set up the network? (Choose two.)
A. Install a Windows Server 2008 R2 domain controller.
B. Create a HomeGroup.
C. All audio and video files should be moved to the media library.
D. Move all audio and video files to a shared folder on the Windows Server 2008 R2 machine.
B, C. Create a new HomeGroup and set the password. Use that password and join all computers to the same HomeGroup. By default, all files in the media library are available to all members of the HomeGroup.
You are the network administrator for an organization with two sites as shown in the diagram. You need to install a new Windows 7 machine into site 1. Which TCP/IP address can you assign to the new Windows 7 machine?
A. 192.168.2.32
B. 192.168.2.31
C. 192.168.2.41
D. 192.168.2.63
C. The company’s subnet mask is 255.255.224.0. This subnet mask uses subnet ranges of 32. So the subnet’s layout is 32–63, 64–95, 96–127, 128–159, 160–191, and 192–223. Now when you subnet, you can’t use the first or last number of any range. The first number represents the network ID, and the last number represents the broadcast. So because the router and the one Windows 7 computer fall within the 32–63 range, your new Windows 7 machine must fall within this range. 32 is the network ID and can’t be used, and 63 is the broadcast and can’t be used. So the only available addresses are from 33–62, and the only available unused IP address in that range is 192.168.2.41.
You are the network administrator for a large organization that has decided to use DirectAccess. You have configured all requirements for DirectAccess. You have a Windows 7 machine that is not connecting through DirectAccess. You runipconfig and get the following information:
Ethernet adapter local area connection
Connection-specific DNS suffix: Stellacon.com
IPv4 address: 192.168.20.40
Subnet mask: 255.255.255.0
Default gateway: 192.168.20.1
There are no other configuration settings for this Windows 7 machine. What needs to be done first to configure this machine to use DirectAccess?
A. Enable IPv6 on the network adapter.
B. Remove the connection-specific DNS suffix.
C. Remove the default gateway.
D. Change the subnet mask.
A. IPv6 is a requirement of DirectAccess, and you need to have IPv6 enabled on this Windows 7 machine.
You are the network administrator for a midsize company that uses both desktops and laptops. All laptops use Windows 7 and have been connected to a wireless access point. You disable the SSID, and now your laptops can no longer connect to the access point. What do you need to do to allow the laptops to connect?
A. Reboot the laptops.
B. Modify the wireless network connection settings on the laptops.
C. Reboot the access point.
D. Disconnect and reconnect the laptops to the domain.
B. You need to change the wireless network connection settings on the laptop to allow these laptop users to connect to the reconfigured access point.
You have made a Windows 7 virtual hard disk (.vhd) and installed that .vhd onto a machine. You want to be sure that the machine boots up using the Windows 7.vhd. What do you need to modify? A. Disk Management B. Fdisk C. bcdedit D. boot.ini
C. To allow the Windows 7 .vhd file to be the default operating system, you must configure the bcdedit command. The bcdedit command replaced the boot.ini file when Microsoft Vista was released.
You are the network administrator for a midsize company that uses both desktops and laptops. All laptops use Windows 7 and have been connected to a wireless access point that is configured to use Advanced Encryption Standard (AES) security. There is no preshared password key being used. You need to connect a new Windows 7 laptop to the access point. How would you set up the security setting on the laptop? A. WPA2-Personal B. WPA2-Enterprise C. WPA-Personal D. WAP security
B. When it comes to WPA, there are two versions: WPA2-Personal and WPA2-Enterprise. WPA2-Personal allows you to set up WPA2 by using a shared password key. WPA2-Enterprise allows you to set up WPA2 by using a server for verification. Because all users are using AES with no shared password key, WPA2-Enterprise is the setting that you would choose.
You are the network administrator for a large organization that uses Windows Server 2008 R2 and Windows 7. You have two Windows 7 machines, named Client1 and Client2. You want to be able to remotely execute commands on Client2 from Client1's machine. How can you accomplish this task? A. Run WinRM quickconfig on Client1. B. Run WinRM quickconfig on Client2. C. Run WinRM execute on Client1. D. Run WinRM execute on Client2.
B. The WinRM quickconfig command configures a machine to accept WS-Management commands from a remote machine.
You are the network administrator for a small organization that has decided to switch the company's TCP/IP subnet mask. The organization has chosen to use 255.255.255.240. What is the increment for subnet ranges in a 240 subnet mask? A. 4 B. 8 C. 16 D. 32
C. On a 240 subnet mask, the ranges go by 16. Because this is a Class C, the ranges would be 16–31, 32–47, 48–63, 64–79, 80–95, 96–111, 112–127, 128-143, 144–159, 160–175, 176–191, 192–207, 208–223, and 224–239. Remember that in a Class C address, these are not all usable. You have to subtract the first number (network ID) and the last number (broadcast).
You have two DHCP servers on your network. Your computer accidentally received the wrong IP and DNS server configuration from a DHCP server that was misconfigured. The DHCP server with the incorrect configuration has been disabled. What commands could you use to release and renew your computer's DHCP configuration? (Choose two.) A. ipconfig /release B. ipconfig /registerdhcp C. ipconfig /renew D. ipconfig /flushdhcp
A, C. The ipconfig /release and the ipconfig /renew commands will allow your machine to receive a new IP address from the DHCP server.
You are the network administrator for your company. Your service provider has assigned you the network address 192.168.154.0. You have been granted the entire range to use. What class of address have you been assigned? A. Class A B. Class B C. Class C D. Class D
C. Because the first octet starts with 192, it’s a Class C. If the first octet starts with 1–126, it’s a Class A. 128–191 is a Class B, and 192–223 is a Class C.
You are the network administrator for your company. After configuring a new computer and connecting it to the network, you discover that you cannot access any of the computers on the remote subnet by IP address. You can access some of the computers on the local subnet by IP address. What is the most likely problem? A. Incorrectly defined IP address B. Incorrectly defined subnet mask C. Incorrectly defined default gateway D. Incorrectly defined DNS server
C. The default gateway is the router’s IP address. The default gateway allows you to get from your subnet to another subnet.
A user cannot access a server in the domain. After troubleshooting, you determine that the user cannot access the server by name but can access the server by IP address. What is the most likely problem? A. Incorrectly defined IP address B. Incorrectly defined subnet mask C. Incorrectly defined DHCP server D. Incorrectly defined DNS server
D. The DNS server turns a hostname into an IP address so you can connect to a machine by the machine name. If you can connect to a machine by using the TCP/IP address but not the name, DNS is the issue.
You have a Windows 7 machine that needs to have a static TCP/IP address. You assign the IP address to the machine and you now want to register the computer with DNS. How can you do this from the Windows 7 machine? A. ipconfig /renewdns B. ipconfig /flushdns C. ipconfig /dns D. ipconfig /registerdns
D. Ipconfig /registerdns will automatically register the Windows 7 machine with the DNS server. The registration will include the Windows 7 machine name and the IP address.
