How does NAT traversal technique help in peer-to-peer communication across networks using NAT?

  • It encrypts the entire communication to bypass NAT restrictions.
  • It establishes a direct connection between the peers without NAT involvement.
  • It relies on the use of globally routable IP addresses for all devices.
  • It uses special NAT-aware protocols to negotiate the traversal.
NAT traversal involves using special NAT-aware protocols to negotiate the traversal, allowing peer-to-peer communication across networks using NAT.

Which protocol is commonly encapsulated within GRE tunnels to provide VPN services?

  • IPsec
  • MPLS
  • L2TP
  • PPTP
IPsec is commonly encapsulated within GRE tunnels to provide VPN services.

In SDN, what is the role of Network Function Virtualization (NFV)?

  • NFV virtualizes network functions, such as firewalls and load balancers, allowing them to run as software instances on commodity hardware.
  • NFV is responsible for physical connectivity in SDN, ensuring that network devices are properly connected.
  • NFV is an obsolete concept in SDN, and its role has been replaced by more advanced technologies.
  • NFV is only applicable in traditional, non-virtualized networking environments.
In SDN, NFV virtualizes network functions, enabling them to run as software instances on commodity hardware for increased flexibility.

How does DHCP Snooping enhance network security?

  • Blocks all DHCP traffic
  • Enables dynamic IP allocation
  • Encrypts DHCP messages
  • Filters unauthorized DHCP messages
DHCP Snooping enhances network security by filtering unauthorized DHCP messages, preventing malicious DHCP attacks such as DHCP spoofing and starvation.

In AAA, ________ determines what resources a user can access and what operations they can perform.

  • Authentication
  • Authorization
  • Accounting
  • All of the Above
In AAA, Authorization determines what resources a user can access and what operations they can perform.

In network scripting, _______ patterns are used to extract specific information from structured text like logs or configuration files.

  • Regular Expression
  • JSON
  • XPath
  • YAML
In network scripting, Regular Expression patterns are used to extract specific information from structured text like logs or configuration files.

SNMP operates in the ______ layer of the OSI model, providing a framework for managing devices in a network.

  • Application
  • Data Link
  • Network
  • Presentation
SNMP operates in the Application layer of the OSI model, providing a framework for managing devices in a network.

A network engineer needs to design a network that can efficiently handle varying types of traffic, such as voice, video, and data. What technology would be most suitable for such requirements?

  • QoS (Quality of Service)
  • VLAN (Virtual Local Area Network)
  • MPLS
  • Frame Relay
QoS (Quality of Service) technology is most suitable for designing a network that can efficiently handle varying types of traffic, ensuring the prioritization of voice, video, and data.

In VRRP, what is the significance of having a higher priority value on a router?

  • Faster Transition
  • Lower Priority
  • Preemption
  • Virtual IP
In VRRP, a router with a higher priority value becomes the master router. Preemption allows a higher priority router to take over as the master if it becomes available.

For a remote office connection that requires both data compression and error detection, which protocol offers these features in its standard framework?

  • IPsec
  • L2TP
  • PPP
  • Frame Relay
PPP (Point-to-Point Protocol) supports data compression and error detection as part of its standard framework, making it suitable for a remote office connection with these requirements.
