_________ is a protocol that automatically assigns IP, subnet mask, gateway, and DNS information to network devices.
- DHCP
- DNS
- SNMP
- TCP
DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol) is a protocol that automatically assigns IP, subnet mask, gateway, and DNS information to network devices.
When configuring EtherChannel on a switch, the ______ of the ports being aggregated must match.
- Duplex
- IP Address
- Speed
- VLAN
When configuring EtherChannel on a switch, the speed of the ports being aggregated must match.
________ allows for multiple virtual router identifiers (VRIs) to be assigned to different interfaces on the same router.
- HSRP
- GLBP
- VRRP
- OSPF
GLBP (Gateway Load Balancing Protocol) allows for multiple virtual router identifiers (VRIs) to be assigned to different interfaces on the same router.
Which routing protocol is classful and does not support VLSM or CIDR?
- EIGRP
- OSPF
- RIP
- RIPv1
RIPv1 (Routing Information Protocol version 1) is a classful routing protocol that does not support Variable Length Subnet Masking (VLSM) or Classless Inter-Domain Routing (CIDR).
The _______ feature of EtherChannel helps in avoiding network loops and provides redundancy.
- Load Balancing
- Loop Guard
- Port Security
- Redundancy
The Loop Guard feature of EtherChannel helps in avoiding network loops and provides redundancy.
DNS primarily translates which of the following?
- IP addresses to domain names
- Hostnames to IP addresses
- MAC addresses to IP addresses
- IP addresses to MAC addresses
DNS (Domain Name System) primarily translates hostnames to IP addresses, allowing users to access resources using human-readable names.
When designing a network for a multinational corporation with various branch offices and data centers, which technique is essential to manage the routing tables effectively?
- Border Gateway Protocol (BGP)
- Multi-Protocol Label Switching (MPLS)
- Route Summarization
- Virtual Private Networks (VPNs)
Route summarization is essential when designing a network for a multinational corporation with various branch offices and data centers to manage the routing tables effectively, reducing the size and complexity of routing information.
In cloud computing, ________ is a method used to minimize the risk of data loss and downtime by distributing copies of data across multiple data centers.
- Load Balancing
- Redundancy
- Encryption
- Virtualization
Redundancy in cloud computing involves distributing copies of data across multiple data centers, minimizing the risk of data loss and downtime.
EtherChannel can be configured using which of these methods?
- DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol)
- NAT (Network Address Translation)
- RIP (Routing Information Protocol)
- Static configuration
EtherChannel can be configured using static configuration methods, where administrators manually define the channel configuration.
In the context of WAN optimization, ____ balancing refers to distributing traffic across multiple network paths.
- Load
- Traffic
- Path
- Link
In the context of WAN optimization, load balancing refers to distributing traffic across multiple network paths.
