    You are troubleshooting a network issue a user is having.  After having changed his network adapter to static addressing, he can no longer reach the internet.  However, the machine resolves Internet names to IP addresses.  Observe the adapter's configuration below, and determine the problem. IP Address: 172.31.20.103 Subnet: 255.255.255.0 DNS Server: 172.31.20.251 Gateway Address: 172.31.19.254

    • Gateway is outside of the user's subnet

    • Change subnet mask to 255.255.255.128

    • The gateway no longer has a route to your ISP, so it does not deliver packets

    • DNS is providing incorrect or old resolution information, and the IP addresses given are no longer accurate.

    Correct Answer
    A. Gateway is outside of the user's subnet
    Explanation
    The problem is that the gateway address specified in the network adapter's configuration is outside of the user's subnet. This means that the gateway is not within the range of IP addresses that the user's device can communicate with. As a result, the user is unable to reach the internet even though the machine can still resolve internet names to IP addresses. To resolve this issue, the subnet mask should be changed to 255.255.255.128 so that the gateway falls within the user's subnet.

    Installing DNS on a RODC creates a ...

    • Read-write primary zone

    • Read-write secondary zone

    • Read-only primary zone

    • Read-only secondary zone

    Correct Answer
    A. Read-only primary zone
    Explanation
    Installing DNS on a RODC (Read-Only Domain Controller) creates a read-only primary zone. A primary zone is a DNS zone that contains the authoritative DNS records for a particular domain. A read-only primary zone on a RODC means that the DNS zone can be queried and resolved by clients, but any changes or updates to the zone can only be made on a different DNS server that has a read-write copy of the zone. This helps to ensure that the DNS data on the RODC remains secure and cannot be modified directly on the RODC itself.

    If your creating a shortcut trust between domains in different forests, this must exist first:

    • Realm trust

    • External trust

    • Another shortcut trust

    • Forest trust

    Correct Answer
    A. Forest trust
    Explanation
    In order to create a shortcut trust between domains in different forests, a forest trust must exist first. A forest trust is a trust relationship between two separate Active Directory forests, allowing users from each forest to access resources in the other forest. This type of trust provides a higher level of trust and security than other trust types, such as realm trust, external trust, or another shortcut trust.

    Which of the following is not a common way to configure DNS for a forest trust?

    • Conditional forwarders

    • Stub zone

    • Secondary zone

    • Caching DNS

    Correct Answer
    A. Caching DNS
    Explanation
    Caching DNS is not a common way to configure DNS for a forest trust. Caching DNS refers to the process of temporarily storing DNS information on a local server after it has been retrieved from a remote server. This is typically done to improve the efficiency and speed of DNS queries. However, it is not directly related to configuring DNS for a forest trust, which involves establishing a trust relationship between two Active Directory forests to allow users and resources to be shared between them.

    The Intersite Topology Generator (ISTG) is responsible for assigning one of these for each directory partition in the site:

    • A KCC leader

    • Subnet

    • Bridgehead server

    • Domain controller

    Correct Answer
    A. Bridgehead server
    Explanation
    The Intersite Topology Generator (ISTG) is responsible for assigning a bridgehead server for each directory partition in the site. A bridgehead server acts as a communication link between sites in a distributed Active Directory environment. It receives and replicates changes from other domain controllers within the site and then forwards those changes to other sites. By designating a bridgehead server, the ISTG ensures efficient and optimized replication between sites, as the bridgehead server handles the replication traffic for a specific directory partition.

    • Domain controller

    • Member server

    • Stand-alone server

    • Stand-alone member server

    Correct Answer
    A. Stand-alone server
    Explanation

    Select below a vaild requirement for the installation of Hyper-V:

    • Windows Server 2008 Datacenter must be installed to use Hyper-V

    • Your CPU must support virtualization extensions

    • You require a Hyper-V license key

    • You must have at least 128MB of RAM installed

    Correct Answer
    A. Your CPU must support virtualization extensions
    Explanation
    To install Hyper-V, it is necessary for the CPU to support virtualization extensions. This is because Hyper-V relies on hardware virtualization capabilities provided by the CPU to create and manage virtual machines. Without virtualization extensions, the CPU would not be able to efficiently run virtual machines, resulting in poor performance or inability to run them at all. Therefore, ensuring that the CPU supports virtualization extensions is a valid requirement for the installation of Hyper-V.
