    Multiple Choice: What is a Router’s primary purpose?

    • To transport data between networks

    • To define a network by the MAC Addresses of the devices it is connected to

    • To confirm delivery of data and request additional data packets

    Correct Answer
    A. To transport data between networks
    Explanation
    A router's primary purpose is to transport data between networks. Routers are networking devices that receive data packets from one network and then determine the best path for the data to reach its destination on another network. They use routing tables and protocols to make these decisions and ensure efficient and reliable data transmission between networks.

    If you want to know how many remaining network channels are available in your design you need to:

    • Select “Check Design” in the File Menu or Press Shift+F6

    • Count the number of available inputs on the back panel of the Core

    • Click the Core and check the properties panel in the left side panel.

    Correct Answer
    A. Select “Check Design” in the File Menu or Press Shift+F6
    Explanation
    To determine the number of remaining network channels available in the design, the correct approach is to select "Check Design" in the File Menu or press Shift+F6.

    True/False Each Layer of the OSI 7-Layer Model  interacts with any of the other layer.

    • True

    • False

    Correct Answer
    A. False
    Explanation
    Each layer of the OSI 7-Layer Model interacts only with the adjacent layers. This means that a layer can only communicate with the layer directly above it and the layer directly below it. The purpose of this design is to ensure that each layer performs a specific set of functions and does not have to be concerned with the operations of other layers. This allows for modularity and flexibility in the design of network protocols. Therefore, the given answer "False" is correct.

    Multiple Choice: What does an IP Address represent?

    • A device’s virtual location on a network

    • A device’s permanent and unique identification number

    • A device’s physical location using longitude and latitude

    Correct Answer
    A. A device’s virtual location on a network
    Explanation
    An IP address represents a device's virtual location on a network. It is a numerical label assigned to each device connected to a computer network that uses the Internet Protocol for communication. The IP address allows devices to communicate and send data to each other within the network. It does not represent a device's physical location or serve as a permanent and unique identification number.

    Multiple Choice: What type of device creates a list of MAC Addresses to be shares across a network?

    • A Switch

    • A Router

    • A Core

    Correct Answer
    A. A Switch
    Explanation
    A switch is a type of device that creates a list of MAC addresses to be shared across a network. Switches operate at the data link layer of the OSI model and use MAC addresses to forward data packets to the correct destination device. By maintaining a table of MAC addresses, switches can efficiently direct traffic within a network by sending data only to the appropriate device. This allows for faster and more efficient communication within a network. In contrast, routers operate at the network layer and use IP addresses to make routing decisions between different networks. A core is a high-performance switch that serves as the backbone of a network.

    Multiple Choice: Approximately how long does it take a segment of data to enter and exit a switch?

    • 22 microseconds

    • 120 microseconds

    • 262 microseconds

    Correct Answer
    A. 22 microseconds
    Explanation
    A segment of data takes approximately 22 microseconds to enter and exit a switch. This indicates the time it takes for the data to be processed and forwarded through the switch, ensuring efficient communication between devices.

    Multiple Choice: Which of the following statements about communication protocols is true?

    • Q-LAN sends control data using TCP and audio using UDP.

    • Q-LAN sends audio using TCP because it is faster than UDP.

    • Q-LAN sends all its proprietary control data using QDP.

    Correct Answer
    A. Q-LAN sends control data using TCP and audio using UDP.
    Explanation
    Q-LAN sends control data using TCP and audio using UDP because TCP provides reliable and ordered delivery of data, which is important for control data to ensure that it is received correctly and in the correct order. On the other hand, UDP is used for audio because it provides faster transmission with lower latency, which is crucial for real-time audio streaming where minor delays can cause disruptions in the audio playback.

    Choose all that apply: Which of the following are requirements of your Switch? (Choose all that apply)

    • Wire-speed non-blocking delivery

    • 40 kb/port dedicated buffering

    • Total switch fabric > port quantity

    Correct Answer(s)
    A. Wire-speed non-blocking delivery
    A. 40 kb/port dedicated buffering
    A. Total switch fabric > port quantity
    Explanation
    The requirements of a switch include wire-speed non-blocking delivery, which means that the switch should be able to forward packets at the maximum speed of the network without any congestion or blocking. Additionally, the switch should have 40 kb of dedicated buffering per port, which ensures that packets can be temporarily stored and queued during high traffic periods. Lastly, the total switch fabric, which represents the internal capacity of the switch, should be greater than the number of ports to ensure efficient data transmission.
