CompTIA N10-006 Online Questions & Answers

• Question 731:

  Which of the following protocols must be implemented in order for two switches to share VLAN information?

  A. VTP
  B. MPLS
  C. STP
  D. PPTP
  A. VTP

  ---

  The VLAN Trunking Protocol (VTP) allows a VLAN created on one switch to be propagated to other switches in a group of switches (that is, a VTP domain).

• Question 732:

  An administrator would like to inspect all traffic flowing over the SMTP protocol on a given network. Which of the following tools would accomplish this? (Select TWO).

  A. Packet sniffer
  B. Honeypot
  C. Port mirroring
  D. IPS
  E. Port scanner
  F. IDS
  A. Packet sniffer
  C. Port mirroring

  Explanation Explanation/Reference:(IPS), also known as intrusion detection and prevention systems (IDPS), are network security appliances that monitor network and/or system activities for malicious activity. The main functions of intrusion prevention systems are to identify malicious activity, log information about this activity, attempt to block/stop it, and report it. And we use packet sniffer to detect the types of packet.

• Question 733:

  A technician is installing a switch that will be used for VoIP and data traffic. The phones do not support the 802.3af standard. Which of the following should the technician configure on the switch?

  A. VLAN
  B. PoE
  C. VTP
  D. QoS
  D. QoS

• Question 734:

  Which of the following operate at the Data Link layer of the OSI model? (Select TWO).

  A. MAC address
  B. Router
  C. Hub
  D. Switch
  E. IP address
  A. MAC address
  D. Switch

• Question 735:

  Which of the following is always true when a router selects a destination?

  A. The default gateway is selected over any other static or dynamic route.
  B. The shortest route is always selected.
  C. The most specific route is selected over the default gateway.
  D. A dynamic route is selected over a directly attached network.
  C. The most specific route is selected over the default gateway.

  Router always looks for the most closely matched route for forwarding the packet. For example if there are two routes in your router and you have to send a packet to a host with an ip 10.10.10.10 then it will forward packet to 192.168.1.10 rather than 192.168.1.1: Network Destination Netmask Gateway 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 192.168.1.1 10.10.10.0 255.255.255.0 192.168.1.10

• Question 736:

  A user connects to a wireless network at the office and is able to access unfamiliar SMB shares and printers. Which of the following has happened to the user?

  A. The user is connected using the wrong channel.
  B. The user is connected to the wrong SSID.
  C. The user is experiencing an EMI issue.
  D. The user is connected to the wrong RADIUS server.
  B. The user is connected to the wrong SSID.

  ---

  The user is connecting to an SSID assignedto a different subnet. Therefore, the user has access to SMB shares and printers that are not recognizable.

• Question 737:

  An area to which access is controlled by retina scan is protected by which of the following security measure types?

  A. Two-factor authentication
  B. Biometric
  C. Cipher locks
  D. Optical reader
  E. Proximity reader
  B. Biometric

• Question 738:

  A network administrator was told by the Chef Information Officer (CIO) to set up a new office with a network that has redundancy. Which of the following topologies would the network administrator need to administer?

  A. Hybrid
  B. Bus
  C. Mesh
  D. Partial mesh
  E. Star
  C. Mesh

• Question 739:

  Which of the following BEST describes the difference between layer 2 switching and layer 2 routing?

  A. Switching moves packets between hosts on different subnets, and routing moves packets between hosts on the same subnet.
  B. Routing moves packets between hosts on different subnets, and switching moves packets between hosts on the same subnet.
  C. Both routing and switching move packets between hosts on the same subnet, but routing does so at a faster pace.
  D. Both routing and switching move packets between hosts on different subnets, but switching does so at a faster pace.
  B. Routing moves packets between hosts on different subnets, and switching moves packets between hosts on the same subnet.

• Question 740:

  Which of the following wireless standards uses a block encryption cipher rather than a stream cipher?

  A. WPA2-CCMP
  B. WPA
  C. WEP
  D. WPA2-TKIP
  A. WPA2-CCMP

  ---

  Counter Cipher Mode with Block Chaining Message Authentication Code Protocol or CCMP (CCM mode Protocol) is an encryption protocol designed for Wireless LAN products that implement the standards of the IEEE 802.11i amendment to the original IEEE 802.11 standard. CCMP is an enhanced data cryptographic encapsulation mechanism designed for data confidentiality and based upon the Counter Mode with CBC-MAC (CCM) of the AES standard. It was created to address the vulnerabilities presented by WEP, a dated, insecure protocol.
