Question 1

A common way of sharing resources on a peer-to-peer network is by modifying the ____ controls using the computer's operating system.&#10;A) file-serving&#10;B) file-sharing&#10;C) resource-sharing&#10;D) resource-monitoring

Accepted Answer

File-sharing controls allow users to share files and resources on a peer-to-peer network by modifying the access permissions and restrictions using the computer's operating system. Therefore, the best choice is B, file-sharing. The other options (A, C, and D) are either not specific enough or do not accurately describe the process of sharing resources on a peer-to-peer network.

Question 2

A ____ network is confined to a relatively small space.&#10;A) NAN&#10;B) MAN&#10;C) WAN&#10;D) LAN

Accepted Answer

LAN stands for Local Area Network and is limited to a small geographical area, typically within a single building or campus. NAN stands for Neighborhood Area Network, which is a type of LAN used in residential areas. MAN stands for Metropolitan Area Network, which covers a larger area than a LAN but smaller than a WAN. WAN stands for Wide Area Network and covers a large geographical area, such as a city, country or even globally.

Question 3

____ services refer to the capability of a server to share data files, applications, and disk storage space.&#10;A) File&#10;B) Data&#10;C) Management&#10;D) Access

Accepted Answer

File services specifically refer to the capability of a server to share data files, applications, and disk storage space. Therefore, option A is the correct answer. Option B is incorrect because data services are a broader concept that encompasses different types of services, including data analytics, data processing, and data management. Option C is also incorrect because management services are a general term for services that manage different aspects of the IT infrastructure, such as security, network, and server management. Option D is incorrect because access services can refer to different types of services, including authentication, authorization, and identity management, that provide access control to IT resources.

Question 4

Often, separate LANs are interconnected and rely on several ____ running many different applications and managing resources other than data.&#10;A) workstations&#10;B) servers&#10;C) clients&#10;D) stand-alone computers

Accepted Answer

Servers are the backbone of any network, especially when interconnected LANs are involved. They manage resources and run multiple applications, allowing for the efficient sharing of data between the different LANs. Workstations, clients, and stand-alone computers are all important components of a network, but they are not as crucial in interconnecting separate LANs as servers are.

Question 5

To prepare to enter the networking field, a student should master a number of general networking technologies.

Accepted Answer

To be successful in the networking field, a student should have a strong foundation in general networking technologies, such as TCP/IP, routing, switching, and network security. This foundation will provide a solid base for learning and adapting to new technologies as they emerge in the industry.

Question 6

Very large peer-to-peer networks have emerged to take advantage of the Internet.

Accepted Answer

This statement is true. Peer-to-peer networks have become popular due to the widespread availability of the Internet and the ability to easily connect and share files with other users across the network. Examples of large peer-to-peer networks include BitTorrent and eDonkey.

Question 7

Which type of service supports e-mail?&#10;A) management&#10;B) communications&#10;C) access&#10;D) file

Accepted Answer

Communications services, such as email, support the sending and receiving of messages between users. Management services relate to organizing and controlling resources, while access services relate to granting users entry to a system. File services relate to the storage and retrieval of data. Thus, communications is the best choice.

Question 8

Hands-on experience to improve networking hardware and software skills is important when attempting to enter the networking field.

Accepted Answer

Practical experience is crucial to gain hands-on knowledge about networking hardware and software, which is essential when starting a career in networking. This experience can be obtained through internships, job training, or personal projects to demonstrate your skills to potential employers. Without any practical knowledge, it can be difficult to work in the field or progress further in your career.

Question 9

Clients on a client/server network share their resources directly with each other.

Accepted Answer

Clients on a client/server network do not share their resources directly with each other. Instead, they communicate with a central server which manages and controls the sharing of resources among clients.

Question 10

____ services allow remote users to connect to the network.&#10;A) Connection&#10;B) Remote&#10;C) Management&#10;D) Access

Accepted Answer

Access services allow remote users to connect to the network. This includes services like Virtual Private Network (VPN) and Remote Desktop Protocol (RDP), which allow users to access the network from remote locations or from home. Connection services typically refer to services that establish connections between different devices within a network or different networks altogether. Management services are used to manage, monitor, and maintain the network infrastructure. While remote services may facilitate remote access, they do not necessarily imply access to the network itself.
