Question 1

Every resource in a domain is called a(n)____.
A) object
B) entity
C) entry
D) article

Accepted Answer

The term "object" is commonly used to refer to any resource in a domain, whether it is a web page, a file, an image, or anything else. It is a broad and general term that encompasses all types of resources. The other options (entity, entry, article) are not commonly used in this context and are less appropriate.

Question 2

The ____ stores information about every object within a forest.
A) global catalog
B) global master
C) schema master
D) master catalog

Accepted Answer

The global catalog stores information about every object within a forest, including attributes of each object and its location. This information is used for searching and locating objects within the forest. The other options mentioned are also roles within a domain controller, but they do not specifically deal with storing information about forest objects like the global catalog does.

Question 3

One reason for having an RODC is for better security at branch locations,where physical security measures might not be as strong as at a central office.

Accepted Answer

An RODC (Read-Only Domain Controller) is designed for use in branch locations or remote sites with low physical security in order to provide better security for Active Directory authentication and authorization. As the name suggests, it is read-only, meaning that it caches a copy of Active Directory data rather than having a writable copy, which reduces the risk of data theft or modification.

Question 4

A(n)____ is a grouping of related objects within a domain,similar to the idea of having subfolders within a folder,and can be used to reflect the structure of the organization without having to completely restructure the domain(s)when that structure changes.
A) container
B) branch
C) tree
D) OU

Accepted Answer

OU stands for Organizational Unit and is a container object in Active Directory that is typically used to group related objects in a domain. OUs can be restructured and reorganized without changing the structure of the entire domain, making them a useful tool for reflecting changes in organizational structure. Containers can also be used similarly, but OU is a specific type of container object within Active Directory. Branch and tree are not specific to Active Directory and do not accurately describe the functionality of an OU.

Question 5

The Windows Server 2008 option to stop Active Directory Domain Services can involve considerable downtime.

Accepted Answer

The answer of The Windows Server 2008 option to stop...

Question 6

Each kind of object in Active Directory is defined through the ____,which is like a small database of information associated with that object,including the object class and its attributes.
A) forest
B) template
C) schema
D) dimension

Accepted Answer

The schema in Active Directory is a small database of information associated with each kind of object, defining the object class and its attributes. It determines what types of objects can be created in Active Directory and what properties those objects can have.

Question 7

A ____ is intended to contain user accounts from a single domain and can also be set up as a member of a domain local group in the same or another domain.
A) domain security group
B) global security group
C) universal security group
D) domain local group

Accepted Answer

Global security groups are intended to contain user accounts from a single domain and can be members of domain local groups in the same or another domain, fitting the description provided.

Question 8

A ____ is typically used to enable one- or two-way access between a Windows Server domain within a forest and a realm of UNIX/Linux computers.
A) realm trust
B) transitive trust
C) shortcut trust
D) linear trust

Accepted Answer

A realm trust is typically used to enable one- or two-way access between a Windows Server domain within a forest and a realm of UNIX/Linux computers. A transitive trust is a type of trust that can be automatically extended beyond two domains to other trusted domains in a forest. A shortcut trust is a trust created between two domains in separate domain trees that are not part of the same namespace. There is no such thing as a linear trust.

Question 9

AD LDS is installed as a server role via Server Manager.

Accepted Answer

AD LDS can be installed as a server role via Server Manager in Windows Server.

Question 10

A ____ contains one or more domains that are in a common relationship.
A) forest
B) root
C) tree
D) branch

Accepted Answer

A tree in network and domain management contexts refers to one or more domains that are in a common relationship, typically structured within a hierarchical framework.

Question 11

If information on one DC changes,such as the creation of an account,it is replicated to all other DCs in a process called ____.
A) single-master replication
B) shared-master replication
C) master-slave replication
D) multimaster replication

Accepted Answer

Multimaster replication allows changes to be made on any DC and then replicated to all other DCs, ensuring all DCs have the same information.

Question 12

A ____ is a TCP/IP-based concept (container)within Active Directory that is linked to IP subnets.
A) forest
B) domain
C) site
D) tree

Accepted Answer

A site is a TCP/IP-based concept within Active Directory that is linked to IP subnets. It is used to optimize network traffic by allowing clients to locate the closest domain controller and other resources within the same site. Forest, domain, and tree are other concepts within Active Directory that are not specifically linked to IP subnets.

Question 13

Active Directory is a ____ that houses information about all network resources such as servers,printers,user accounts,groups of user accounts,security policies,and other information.
A) file service
B) domain
C) directory service
D) module

Accepted Answer

Active Directory is a directory service that stores and organizes information about all network resources in a hierarchical structure, providing a centralized database for all network resources in a domain.

Question 14

The forest ____ refers to the Active Directory functions supported forest-wide.
A) functional level
B) operational level
C) functional master
D) operational master

Accepted Answer

The functional level of the forest determines the Active Directory features and functions that are available forest-wide. This includes features such as domain and forest trusts, group policy improvements, and authentication protocols. The functional level setting can only be changed by an administrator with appropriate permissions. The operational level and functional/operational master roles are more specific roles within a domain, and do not apply to the forest as a whole.

Question 15

A ____ is one in which every child object contains the name of the parent object.
A) disjointed namespace
B) logical namespace
C) contained namespace
D) contiguous namespace

Accepted Answer

A contiguous namespace is one where every child object contains the name of the parent object, maintaining a hierarchical structure.

Question 16

A(n)____ means that if A and B have a trust and B and C have a trust,A and C automatically have a trust as well.
A) one-way trust
B) transitive trust
C) linear trust
D) implied trust

Accepted Answer

A transitive trust means that if A trusts B and B trusts C, then A trusts C without needing a separate trust relationship between A and C.

Question 17

Active Directory coordinates servers,client computers,printers,shared files,and other resources in a Windows Server 2008 network.

Accepted Answer

Active Directory is a directory service that manages and coordinates resources in a Windows Server network, including servers, client computers, printers, shared files, and more.

Question 18

A ____ usually is a higher-level representation of how a business,government,or school is organized,for example reflecting a geographical location or major division of that organization.
A) forest
B) domain
C) tree
D) member server

Accepted Answer

A domain is a higher-level representation of how an organization is organized, representing a geographical location or major division of that organization. A forest is a group of one or more domains that share a common directory.

Option A is incorrect because a forest is not a representation of how an organization is organized but rather a group of one or more domains.

Option C is incorrect because a tree is a structure used to organize objects within a domain, not a representation of how an organization is organized.

Option D is incorrect because a member server is a computer within a domain that has not been promoted to a domain controller. It is not a representation of how an organization is organized.

Question 19

Microsoft recommends that at least four DCs should be present in any organization using Active Directory.

Accepted Answer

Microsoft does not have a specific recommendation for the number of domain controllers (DCs) required in an organization. The number of DCs needed will depend on factors such as the size and complexity of the organization, the number of users and computers, and the level of redundancy and fault tolerance required.

Question 20

DNS is a TCP/IP-based name service that converts computer and domain host names to dotted decimal addresses and vice versa,through a process called ____.
A) address resolution
B) name resolution
C) domain resolution
D) host resolution

Accepted Answer

DNS stands for Domain Name System and it performs name resolution by converting easy-to-remember domain names into IP addresses that computers understand. This process is known as name resolution.
