You are the administrator for an organization that trains network administrators. The training lab is also a part of the main network and is within your administration authority. The participants have been trained to setup DHCP server for a network and administer the same. This requires an extensive hands-on in the lab. As a result most of the users are complaining about IP address duplication and are unable to connect to the network normally. Which of the following steps would ensure this problem does not occur again? (Each correct answer presents part of the solution. Choose two options.)
- Shift the training lab to a different building
- Assign a dedicated range of IP addresses for the training lab
- Ensure the DHCP server that assigns IP addresses must be authorized to do so
- Implement access lists on the router
- Implement static IP addressing in the training lab
Correct Answer(s)

A. Assign a dedicated range of IP addresses for the training lab
A. Ensure the DHCP server that assigns IP addresses must be authorized to do so

Explanation

Assigning a dedicated range of IP addresses for training purpose ensures that the IP addresses that get allocated will not be from a similar range and will hence avoid IP address duplication. This can still lead to assigning IP addresses that are out of range of the main network. Authorizing DHCP servers on the network will complete the solution for the problem, as no DHCP server other than authorized will be recognized for IP address assignment on the network

You are the administrator for Metro Tech World. The diagram for the network of Metro Tech World is shown below. The requirements for the network have been assigned to you. You are required to propose a plan for the same. Requirements: A. The clients of Network A must be allowed to access clients on Network B B. The resources on the SrvB must not be accessible for clients on Network A C. The clients of Network B must not be allowed to access any resource outside to Network A. Proposed Solutions: A. Assign the router IP address as Default gateway to all clients on Network A and Network B B. Implement access list on router C. Secure all resources on SrvB with relevant access permissions D. Implement firewall Which of the following statements correctly describe the proposed solutions? Choose three.
- Implementing firewall is not inline with the requirements
- Assigning default gateway to clients on Network B works against the stated requirements
- It is not required to assign permissions on SrvB
- Two requirements have been met
- Three requirements have been met
Correct Answer(s)

A. Implementing firewall is not inline with the requirements
A. Assigning default gateway to clients on Network B works against the stated requirements
A. Two requirements have been met

Explanation

Only clients from Network A must be allowed to access clients on Network B, hence only Network A must be assigned with a default gateway and not clients on Network B.

Srv B must be assigned permissions as per requirements.
Access list and firewall have not been mentioned in the requirement.

Hence two requirements have been met and one has not been met

On an Enterprise network that has 1000 computers and 100 servers, if you were to assign a small remote containing about 40 or more computers to connect to the main network, which of the following would be an ideal method to manage dynamic IP addresses on the small network?
- Install a lesser configuration DHCP server on that small network and allow the synchronization to take place between the DHCP servers
- Configure a DHCP relay agent for that network
- Install a BootP agent on the switch of that network
- Assign static IP addresses to the clients of that network
Correct Answer

A. Configure a DHCP relay agent for that network

Explanation

Because these subnets do not contain DHCP servers and the switch cannot function as a DHCP/BOOTP relay agent, each subnet must have either its own DHCP server or another computer that can function as a relay agent on that subnet

You are a managing a very small Windows 2003 server based network with about 45 clients. You are required to ensure that the systems that are unable to connect to the DHCP server on startup will still be assigned an IP address till such time that the DHCP server will be available. These clients are running Windows XP. What must you do?
- Assign a secondary IP address to the clients
- Assign a static IP address to the client
- Do nothing
- Re-install the OS
- Upgrade the OS to Windows Server 2003
Correct Answer

A. Do nothing

Explanation

Do nothing. Whenever dynamic IP address is configured and the DHCP server is available, the XP will allocate an IP address to the computer from the range of private IP addresses allocated for Microsoft for this purpose. This method is called as Automatic Private IP Addressing (APIPA)

You have 2 subnets on your network, Sub1 and Sub2. Each of these requires a DHCP server for itself. You are also required to setup a fault tolerance for the DHCP servers on these two subnets. You must ensure that at no given time, the DHCP client requests go unattended. Which steps should you take to support this configuration? (Choose all that apply.)
- Divide the entire scope of contiguous addresses between the two servers
- Implement a DHCP relay agent on each subnet so that the relay agent forward request to the DHCP server on the remote subnet
- Ensure all reserved addresses are configured correctly on both the DHCP servers
- Create reservations for the required clients on any one server only
- The IP addresses between the two subnets must not be contiguous for safety reasons
Correct Answer(s)

A. Divide the entire scope of contiguous addresses between the two servers
A. Implement a DHCP relay agent on each subnet so that the relay agent forward request to the DHCP server on the remote subnet
A. Ensure all reserved addresses are configured correctly on both the DHCP servers

Explanation

By dividing the entire contiguous scope of the combined subnets between the two servers along with using a DHCP relay agent, you can ensure that if the local DHCP server is down the DHCP relay agent will forward the DHCP client request to the remote DHCP server and the client can still get an IP address within the same range of addresses that it had received earlier. By ensuring that the reservation information is configured on both servers, you can avoid IP address duplication

You require all users who are working from home or traveling to access the company information from wherever they are. You have a DHCP server that will be assisting the RAS server for dynamically allocating IP addresses to these remote clients. You have implemented the default Windows Integrated authentication for security purpose. All resource should be available for the remote users once they log in. When testing you observe that the remote clients are not receiving any information from the DNS server and are hence unable to access the network resource. What should you do?
- Implement a secondary DHCP server just for the remote clients
- Upgrade the DNS server
- Check DHCP scope options
- Do away with the Windows Integrated authentication
Correct Answer(s)

A. Check DHCP scope options
A. Do away with the Windows Integrated authentication

Explanation

The main problem would be that the DHCP scope options for the remote clients may not be correctly configured. Once this has been verified, you may suspect the Windows Integrated authentication as well. In case of Windows Integrated Authentication, authentication happens after encrypted information is exchanged between client and server. This kind of cryptography uses hash algorithm. This may create problems receiving certain scope options on a remote connection.

You are planning a design a for the DNS environment for your company. The requirements are assigned to you as follows: 1. All critical departments should have their respective domain name under the company name as the root. 2. All computers within the domain must be registered. 3. All DNS related records must be constantly updated dynamically. Which of the following solutions presented in the choices section will help you achieve these goals? Choose all that apply.
- Implement Dynamic DNS (DDNS)
- Create Active Directory Integrated zones for all the domain names created for the critical departments
- Configure the Active directory to authorize every client on the network to be a part of the main company domain
- Ensure the DHCP server on the domain is an authorized one
- Implement Primary DNS servers that need manual updating of records
Correct Answer(s)

A. Implement Dynamic DNS (DDNS)
A. Create Active Directory Integrated zones for all the domain names created for the critical departments

Explanation

Dynamic DNS will closely interact with the DHCP server for any dynamic updating required from the IP clients end. Active-Directory integrated zone will ensure every object under the relevant zone or domain name will be recorded and accounted for

You require just one resource on the entire network whose Ip related information must be statically configured. This resource needs to be accessed by one and all in the network that is otherwise dynamically configured. Which of the following records would you configure for this purpose?
- Alias
- DNS suffix
- SRV
- Router
- Host (A)
Correct Answer

A. Host (A)

Explanation

Host (A) resource records are used in a zone to associate DNS domain names of hosts (computers or network interface print device) to their IP addresses. For a static TCP/IP host, you should manually create an A resource record using the DNS console.

You are the administrator of a heterogeneous network. You have a Primary DNS service running on a Active Directory based DNS server. You are required to accommodate a UNIX server as the secondary DNS server and allow all Active directory based users to be able access this secondary DNS server and also ensure that zone transfer will be possible in this scenario. What must you do? Choose all that apply.
- Configure a Host (A) record for the DNS server running on the UNIX server
- Configure a Name Server (NS) resource record for the UNIX server to the DNS zone
- Configure a SRV record for the Active directory based DNS server
- Configure a Alias record for the UNIX based DNS server.
Correct Answer(s)

A. Configure a Host (A) record for the DNS server running on the UNIX server
A. Configure a Name Server (NS) resource record for the UNIX server to the DNS zone

Explanation

Configuring a Host (A) record for the UNIX server will ensure that the UNIX server is available as a secondary DNS for non-UNIX clients as well. The NS resource record is used to specify the DNS servers are designated as authoritative for the zone. By listing a server in the NS resource record, it becomes known to others as an authoritative server for the zone

Your company has a Cache DNS server that receives updates from your ISP. Recently, the ISP had suffered some snags in the operation due to bandwidth congestion and as a result your DNS resolution went haywire. Now the ISP has resolved all issues and his setup is up and running again. But your network clients are still complaining that the usual web sites that they access still remain inacessible. What should you do?
- Restart the DNS server
- Clear the DNS server cache
- Restart the connection with the ISP
- Request the ISP to restart his DNS server
Correct Answer

A. Clear the DNS server cache

Explanation

Since the type of DNS server being used in the network is a Cache DNS server, it would have cached all the resolution status of the ISP�s DNS server when the ISP was suffering network issues. Hence, now that the ISP issues are sorted out the DNS server in your network will have to cache the latest resolution status. For which, it is best to clear the current contents of the cache

Which of the following would be an ideal and efficient method for implementing an automated process of software updates? Each choice statement presents a part of the solution. Choose two statements to arrive at a complete solution.
- Configure Software Update Service (SUS) along with Group Policy Objects (GPO).
- Configure Automatic Updates on all Domain Controllers and clients.
- Configure Automatic Update on the Root DC and ensure the rest do not connect to the Internet at all.
- Ensure only the critical DCs connect to the Microsoft site for Updates and a designated server pushes the update to the rest of the computers on the network.
Correct Answer(s)

A. Configure Software Update Service (SUS) along with Group Policy Objects (GPO).
A. Ensure only the critical DCs connect to the Microsoft site for Updates and a designated server pushes the update to the rest of the computers on the network.

Explanation

Implement SUS on the network. You will also have to configure relevant GPOs to enable SUS to function correctly. Ensuring that critical DCs directly update themselves from Microsoft site is required as these servers should not suffer any vulnerability due to delay in updates. Ensuring that a designated server will push updates to other clients at a scheduled time will ensure that all clients are updating themselves regularly without clogging the network bandwidth.

You have been receiving complaints from the finance department that there is a bandwidth clog on the switch. This switch connects the Finance department to all the important member servers on which critical and confidential data resides. You monitor that part of the network and capture enough data to realize that there have been tremendous client requests made to the resources on the member servers that have been discarded by the servers. You are sure that the access permissions were in place even before you took charge of this network. You need to be sure that not only is the unauthorized user being prohibited from accessing the confidential resource, but he also needs to be tracked. Which of the following options would you do choose to achieve the said goals? Each statement represents a part of the solution. Choose two statements that will complete the solution.
- Choose the Audit object Access settings for that GPO
- Choose the Delegate Authority settings for that GPO
- Audit for failure of events
- Audit for success of events
Correct Answer(s)

A. Choose the Audit object Access settings for that GPO
A. Audit for failure of events

Explanation

Auditing helps you to check for the resource access as to who and when is accessing the resources. Enabling failure of event will help you track who is unauthorized to access the confidential resources. Success of event is required only when you need to be sure that everyone who has been assigned access permission is able to access the resource, which is irrelevant here.
Delegate authority is irrelevant here.

. You are planning a network where in a Windows Server 2003 will act as router. You will be hosting a Web server that should not be placed in the internal network as you do not want public HTTP traffic to be entering your internal network. You also have an Intranet Web server that will not only be a part of the internal network but will also be integrated with the rest of the domain controllers for Windows Integrated authentication, as only employees will be allowed to access this Intranet Web server. All these employees will be using pre-assigned IP addresses. You are required to place these two servers and configure restrictions such that the rest of the networks� security is not compromised. All traffic entering the network will have to first pass through the firewall. Each of the choice represents a part of the solution. Choose all that apply to form a complete solution
- Configure Port Address Translation (PAT) for the Intranet Web server.
- Configure Network Address Translation (NAT) for the HTTP server.
- Place the HTTP server in the DMZ.
- Place the Intranet Web Server in the DMZ.
- Configure external interface of the router or firewall to discard all inbound packets except from known IP address list.
Correct Answer(s)

A. Configure Port Address Translation (PAT) for the Intranet Web server.
A. Configure Network Address Translation (NAT) for the HTTP server.
A. Configure external interface of the router or firewall to discard all inbound packets except from known IP address list.

Explanation

Since public traffic should not enter the internal network, the HTTP server is best placed in the De-militarized zone. Since the Intranet Web server is partially allowing traffic from the outside world although from the employees of the organization itself, employing Pat will ensure that the access intend for the Intranet Web server will hit the said server only and not any other resource on the network. This also succeeds in maintaining security of the internal IP address of the network. Assigning a known list of IP addresses to the external interface of the firewall will help it to discard all unauthorized IP packets.
