What type of memory is non-volatile, considered permanent, and is also firmware in reference to the data and instructions stored?
- A.
Cache.
- B.
Read-only memory (ROM).
- C.
Random access memory (RAM).
- D.
Complimentary metal-oxide-semiconductor (CMOS).
Correct Answer
B. Read-only memory (ROM).Explanation
ROM is a type of memory that is non-volatile, meaning it retains data even when power is turned off. It is considered permanent because the data and instructions stored in ROM cannot be easily modified or erased. ROM is also firmware, which means it contains software instructions that are permanently programmed during manufacturing. Therefore, ROM is the correct answer as it fits all the given criteria.Rate this question:

- A.
Read-only memory (ROM)
- B.
Random access memory (RAM)
- C.
Programmable read-only memory (PROM)
- D.
Complimentary metal-oxide-semiconductor (CMOS)
Correct Answer
C. Programmable read-only memory (PROM)Explanation
PROM stands for Programmable Read-Only Memory. It is a type of memory that allows instructions to be permanently placed on it. Unlike RAM, which is volatile and can be written and rewritten, PROM is non-volatile and its contents cannot be changed once programmed. ROM, on the other hand, is not programmable and its contents are fixed during manufacturing. CMOS refers to the technology used in integrated circuits but is not a type of memory. Therefore, PROM is the correct answer for a memory type that can have instructions permanently placed on it.Rate this question:

Which information is not required when configuring Transmisson Control Protocol/Internet Protocol (TCP/IP)?
- A.
Domain name system server address.
- B.
Media access control (MAC) address.
- C.
Internet Protocol (IP) address.
- D.
Administrator access.
Correct Answer
B. Media access control (MAC) address.Explanation
When configuring TCP/IP, the information that is not required is the Media Access Control (MAC) address. The MAC address is a unique identifier assigned to network interfaces, and it is used at the data link layer of the TCP/IP protocol stack. However, when configuring TCP/IP, the focus is on the network layer, specifically the IP address, which is used for routing packets across networks. The MAC address is automatically assigned to network interfaces and does not need to be manually configured for TCP/IP.Rate this question:

C. Satellite.Explanation
The Air Force Network Integration Center (AFNIC) recommends satellite for most military wireless network applications. This is because satellite communication can provide reliable and secure connectivity even in remote and challenging environments. It allows for long-range communication and can be easily deployed in various locations. Additionally, satellite communication offers high bandwidth capacity, which is essential for transmitting large amounts of data in military operations. Fiber optics, microwaves, and light may also be used in specific cases, but satellite is the recommended choice for most military wireless network applications.Rate this question:

- B.
Radio Waves.
- C.
An antenna.
- D.

Correct Answer
A. An ethernet connection.Explanation
A router sends information to the internet on a wireless network through an ethernet connection. Ethernet is a common method of transmitting data over a wired network, and in the case of a wireless network, the router uses an ethernet connection to connect to the modem, which then connects to the internet. The router acts as a bridge between the wireless devices and the internet, allowing them to communicate and access the internet through the ethernet connection.Rate this question:

- A.
Network interface card (NIC).
- B.
Ethernet.
- C.
Router.
- D.
Wi-Fi (wireless fidelity).
Correct Answer
C. Router.Explanation
A router is a device that receives information from the internet and translates it into a radio signal, which is then sent to the computer's wireless adapter. The router acts as a bridge between the internet and the computer, allowing the computer to connect to the internet wirelessly. A network interface card (NIC) is a hardware component that allows a computer to connect to a network, but it does not perform the specific function of receiving information from the internet and translating it into a radio signal. Ethernet is a type of wired network connection, not a device. Wi-Fi (wireless fidelity) is a technology that allows devices to connect to a wireless network, but it is not a specific device itself. Therefore, the correct answer is the router.Rate this question:
