Question 1

In which OSI model layer(s)do NICs operate?

Accepted Answer

NICs operate at both the physical layer, where they handle the encoding and decoding of data signals, and the data link layer, where they add MAC addresses to frames and handle error detection and correction. Therefore, the best choice is D.

Question 6

The ____ is a fixed number associated with a device's NIC.

Accepted Answer

The physical address, also known as the MAC address, is a fixed number associated with a device's NIC. This address is used to uniquely identify a device on a network. The other options (LLC address, frame address, and logical address) are either not associated with a NIC or not a unique identifier for a device on a network.

Question 9

In which OSI model layer do hubs operate?

Accepted Answer

Hubs operate at the Physical layer of the OSI model, as they simply regenerate and broadcast signals without any knowledge of the network or the data being transmitted.

Question 15

Which Data Link sublayer manages access to the physical medium?

Accepted Answer

The MAC (Media Access Control) sublayer is responsible for managing access to the physical transmission medium. It implements protocols that coordinate access to the physical medium among multiple devices or network nodes. The LLC (Logical Link Control) sublayer, on the other hand, provides a common interface for the network layer protocol above it and the MAC sublayer below it. The management and addressing layers are not data link sublayers.
