Microsoft 98-366 Online Questions & Answers

• Question 181:

  Which type of network covers the broadest area?

  A. WAN
  B. CAN
  C. LAN
  D. PAN
  A. WAN

  ---

  A wide area network (WAN) is a network that covers a broad area (i.e., any telecommunications network that links across metropolitan, regional, national or international boundaries) using leased telecommunication lines.

• Question 182:

  The command-line tool used to list a host's active incoming connections is:

  A. NETSTAT
  B. IPCONFIG
  C. NSLOOKUP
  D. PING
  A. NETSTAT

  ---

  Used without parameters, netstat displays active TCP connections.

  Note: Netstat displays active TCP connections, ports on which the computer is listening, Ethernet statistics, the IP routing table, IPv4 statistics (for the IP, ICMP, TCP, and UDP protocols), and IPv6 statistics (for the IPv6, ICMPv6, TCP over IPv6, and UDP over IPv6 protocols).

• Question 183:

  How many bits are there in an Internet Protocol version 6 (IPv6) address?

  A. 32
  B. 64
  C. 128
  D. 256
  C. 128

  ---

  IPv6 uses a 128-bit address, allowing 2**128, or approximately 3.4?0**38 addresses, or more than 7.9?0**28 times as many as IPv4, which uses 32-bit addresses

• Question 184:

  What is a similarity between Layer 2 and Layer 3 switches?

  A. Both provide a high level of security to the network.
  B. Both use logical addressing to forward transmissions.
  C. Both forward packets onto the network.
  D. Both allow the implementation of VLANs.
  D. Both allow the implementation of VLANs.

  ---

  A single layer-2 network may be partitioned to create multiple distinct broadcast domains, which are mutually isolated so that packets can only pass between them via one or more routers; such a domain is referred to as a virtual local area

  network, virtual LAN or VLAN.

  LANs are layer 2 constructs, so they can be supported by both Layer 2 and Layer 3 switches.

  Incorrect:

  Not A: Layer 2 switches do not provide high level of security.

  Not B: Another name for logical address is IP address. Only Layer 3 switches uses IP address. Layer 2 switches uses MAC addresses.

  Not C: only Layer 3 switches forward packets on the network (like routers).

• Question 185:

  You are home for vacation, and a family member wants your help to purchase and install network cable for a home office.

  The cable needs to support at least 300 Mbps.

  What is the least expensive option that meets this requirement?

  A. Cat3
  B. CAT5
  C. Cat5e
  D. Cat6
  C. Cat5e

  ---

  Cat5e cables support up to 1000BASE-T (Gigabit Ethernet).

  Incorrect:

  not cat5: Max speed is 100Mbps

  not Cat6: 20% higher cost than Cat 5e.

• Question 186:

  This question requires that you evaluate the underlined text to determine if it is correct.

  The four IEEE standards, 802.11a, b, g, and n, are collectively known as "mobile ad hoc" networks.

  Select the correct answer if the underlined text does not make the statement correct. Select 'No change is needed" if the underlined text makes the statement correct.

  A. WiMAX
  B. Bluetooth
  C. WiFi
  D. No change is needed
  C. WiFi

  ---

  IEEE 802.11 is a set of media access control (MAC) and physical layer (PHY) specifications for implementing wireless local area network (WLAN) computer communication in the 2.4, 3.6, 5, and 60 GHz frequency bands. They are created and maintained by the IEEE LAN/MAN Standards Committee (IEEE 802). The base version of the standard was released in 1997, and has had subsequent amendments. The standard and amendments provide the basis for wireless network products using the Wi-Fi brand.

• Question 190:

  This question requires that you evaluate the underlined text to determine if it is correct.

  All devices on your company network connect to the same network switch. This is an example of a physical star topology.

  Review the underlined text. If it makes the statement correct, select "No change is needed." If the statement is incorrect, select the answer choice that makes the statement correct.

  A. ring
  B. bus
  C. mesh
  D. No change is needed
  D. No change is needed
