A company is expanding its office to another floor. They need a device to connect these two networks efficiently while managing traffic. Which device should be implemented?
- Bridge
- Hub
- Router
- Switch
A router is the most suitable device for connecting two networks efficiently, managing traffic, and providing inter-network communication.
An organization is concerned about VLAN hopping attacks. What configuration should be implemented to prevent this security threat?
- Private VLANs
- VLAN Access Control Lists (VACLs)
- VLAN Pruning
- VLAN Trunking Protocol (VTP)
Private VLANs should be implemented to prevent VLAN hopping attacks by restricting communication between certain VLANs within the same broadcast domain.
A company is experiencing frequent network issues. They need a solution to proactively monitor and identify potential problems before they affect operations. What type of system should they implement?
- SNMP
- NMS (Network Management System)
- Syslog
- SMTP
The company should implement a Network Management System (NMS) to proactively monitor and identify potential network problems before they affect operations. NMS provides comprehensive monitoring and management capabilities.
SNMP traps are used for what purpose in network management?
- Device configuration
- Real-time event notification
- Long-term event storage
- Network topology discovery
SNMP traps are used for real-time event notification in network management, allowing devices to send asynchronous alerts to a central management system.
Which routing technique is more flexible and can adapt to changes in the network layout, like link failures?
- Default Routing
- Dynamic Routing
- Hybrid Routing
- Static Routing
Dynamic routing is more flexible and can adapt to changes in the network layout, such as link failures, by dynamically updating routing tables.
