• Question 1:

  Which of the following tools would a technician use to determine if a CAT6 cable is properly terminated?

  A. Cable tester
  B. Punch down tool
  C. Crimper
  D. Multimeter
  A. Cable tester

• Question 2:

  Users inform an administrator that the network is slow. The administrator notices the bulk of the traffic is SIP and RTP traffic. Which of the following could the administrator do to help BEST alleviate the traffic congestion for the users?

  A. Create an ACL on the switches and routers that are dropping SIP and RTP packets.
  B. Create a QoS policy prioritizing users over RTP and SIP traffic.
  C. Create another VLAN for SIP and RTP traffic.
  D. Create a rule to throttle SIP and RTP to 10Kbps or less.
  C. Create another VLAN for SIP and RTP traffic.

  As if we will create a vlan for sip and rtp traffic only this traffic will flow from the ports then .

• Question 3:

  A network technician was tasked to respond to a compromised workstation. The technician documented the scene, took the machine offline, and left the PC under a cubicle overnight. Which of the following steps of incident handling has been incorrectly performed?

  A. Document the scene
  B. Forensics report
  C. Evidence collection
  D. Chain of custody
  D. Chain of custody

  ---

  To verify the integrity of data since a security incident occurred, you need to be able to show a chain of custody. A chain of custody documents who has been in possession of the data (evidence) since a security breach occurred. A well-prepared organization will have process and procedures that are used when an incident occurs. A plan should include first responders securing the area and then escalating to senior management and authorities when required by policy or law. The chain of custody alsoincludes documentation of the scene, collection of evidence, and maintenance, e- discovery (which is theelectronic aspect of identifying, collecting, and producing electronically stored information), transportation of data, forensics reporting, and a process to preserve all forms of evidence and data when litigation is expected. The preservation of the evidence, data, and details is referred to as legal hold.

• Question 4:

  The network technician has recently implemented VLANs on the company network. Ever since this implementation, sections within the company can no longer share information. While troubleshooting, the technician realizes they are unable to ping a device from another VLAN. Which of the following needs to be configured to fix this problem?

  A. Clear the ARP table
  B. Add host entries on the user's computer
  C. Configure 802.1x trunks on the switches
  D. Configure 802.1q trunks on the switches
  D. Configure 802.1q trunks on the switches

• Question 5:

  Which of the following security appliances are used to only identify traffic on individual systems?

  A. Host based IPS
  B. Application based IPS
  C. Network based IDS
  D. Host based IDS
  D. Host based IDS

  ---

  Explanation Explanation/Reference:A host-based intrusion detection system (HIDS) is an intrusion detection system that monitors and analyzes the internals of a computing system as well as the network packets on its network interfaces.

• Question 6:

  Which of the following types of cables would be used to connect a hub to a patch panel?

  A. Straight-through cable
  B. Crossover cable
  C. T1 Crossover cable
  D. Rollover cable
  A. Straight-through cable

• Question 7:

  Which of the following is the MAXIMUM potential speed of CAT5e UTP cable?

  A. 10BaseT
  B. 100BaseT
  C. 100BaseFX
  D. 1000BaseT
  D. 1000BaseT

  ---

  Category 5 e cable (Cat 5) is a twisted pair cable for carrying signals. This type of cable is used in structured cabling for computer networks such as Ethernet. The cable standard provides performance of up to 100 MHz and is suitable for 10BASE-T, 100BASE-TX (Fast Ethernet), and 1000BASE-T (Gigabit Ethernet).

• Question 8:

  A company needs to implement a secure wireless system that would require employees to authenticate to the wireless network with their domain username and password. Which of the following would a network administrator deploy to implement these requirements? (Select TWO).

  A. 802.1q
  B. MAC address filtering
  C. WPA2 Personal
  D. WPA Enterprise
  E. 802.1x
  D. WPA Enterprise
  E. 802.1x

• Question 9:

  A technician needs to ensure green space wireless coverage. The antenna is being installed in the middle of the field. Which of the following antenna types should be installed to ensure maximum coverage?

  A. Omnidirectional
  B. Yagi
  C. Unidirectional
  D. Directional
  A. Omnidirectional

• Question 10:

  A network technician is concerned that a user is utilizing a company PC for file sharing and using a large amount of the bandwidth. Which of the following tools can be used to identify the IP and MAC address of the user's PC?

  A. System log
  B. History log
  C. Network sniffer
  D. Nslookup
  C. Network sniffer

  ---

  Explanation Explanation/Reference:Network sniffer is a computer program or a piece of computer hardware that can intercept and log traffic passing over a digital network or part of a network. As data streams flow across the network, the sniffer captures each packet and, if needed, decodes the packet's raw data, showing the values of various fields in the packet, and analyzes its content according to the appropriate RFC or other specifications.
