A small business with a very limited IT budget and a stable network setup needs to decide on a routing strategy. Which method would be most appropriate?
- Default Routing
- Dynamic Routing
- Policy-Based Routing
- Static Routing
Static Routing is suitable for a small business with limited resources and a stable network, as it is simple and doesn't require constant updates.
In OSPF, the ______ area is used to optimize and control the routing update traffic between areas.
- Backbone
- Stub
- Transit
- Virtual-Link
In OSPF, the Transit area is used to optimize and control the routing update traffic between areas.
In designing a network with a focus on security and efficient routing, which IP version's features would be most beneficial?
- IPX
- IPv4
- IPv5
- IPv6
IPv6 incorporates features that enhance security and efficient routing, making it beneficial for networks with these design considerations.
The process by which STP recalculates the best path when the network topology changes is known as _______.
- Dijkstra's Algorithm
- Link State Advertisement
- Routing Information Protocol
- Topology Change Notification
The process by which STP recalculates the best path when the network topology changes is known as Topology Change Notification. STP adapts to changes in the network to maintain a loop-free topology.
The process of dividing an IP network into subnetworks is known as _______.
- Fragmentation
- Routing
- Subnetting
- Switching
The process of dividing an IP network into subnetworks is known as subnetting. Subnetting allows for better organization and management of IP addresses within a network.
EtherChannel uses multiple ______ to increase the link bandwidth between two network devices.
- Frames
- Paths
- Ports
- Protocols
EtherChannel uses multiple ports to increase the link bandwidth between two network devices.
Which IPv6 address type is equivalent to IPv4’s private addressing and is used for local communications within a network segment?
- Global Unicast
- Link-Local
- Multicast
- Unique Local
Unique Local IPv6 addresses are equivalent to IPv4's private addressing and are used for local communications within a network segment.
In OSPF, what is the purpose of the designated router (DR) in a broadcast network?
- Elects the router responsible for exchanging routing information with routers in other areas.
- Facilitates efficient communication in broadcast networks by reducing the number of adjacencies.
- Handles the redistribution of external routes into the OSPF routing domain.
- Manages the distribution of routing updates within the OSPF area.
The designated router (DR) in OSPF broadcast networks is responsible for facilitating efficient communication by reducing the number of adjacencies and managing the exchange of routing information.
DHCP _________ is a feature that allows network administrators to reserve specific IP addresses for certain devices.
- Snooping
- Relay
- Reservations
- Superscope
DHCP Reservations is a feature that allows network administrators to reserve specific IP addresses for certain devices.
A _________ NAT policy allows an external user to access a server within a private network by using a pre-defined public IP address.
- Dynamic NAT
- NAT Overload
- PAT (Port Address Translation)
- Static NAT
A Static NAT policy allows an external user to access a server within a private network by using a pre-defined public IP address.
