What is the minimum number of computers needed for a computer network?
- A.
1
- B.
5
- C.
2
- D.
10
Correct Answer
C. 2Explanation
To establish a computer network, a minimum of two computers is required. This is because a network is formed when two or more computers are connected together to share resources and communicate with each other. With only one computer, there would be no other device to connect and create a network. Therefore, the minimum number of computers needed for a computer network is 2.Rate this question:

What is a privately owned network whose access is restricted to authorized personnel is called?
- A.
Homogeneous network
- B.
Intranetwork
- C.
Local area network(LAN)
- D.
Internetwork
Correct Answer
B. IntranetworkExplanation
An intranetwork is a privately owned network that restricts access to authorized personnel only. It is typically used within an organization to facilitate communication and data sharing among employees. Unlike an internetwork, which connects multiple networks together, an intranetwork is confined to a single organization and is not accessible to the public. A local area network (LAN) refers to a network that covers a small geographical area, while a homogeneous network refers to a network where all the connected devices have the same operating system or protocol.Rate this question:

What is a communications network that serves users within a confined geographical area?
- A.
Global area network(GAN)
- B.
Metropolitan area network(MAN)
- C.
Local area network(LAN)
- D.
Wide area network(WAN)
Correct Answer
C. Local area network(LAN)Explanation
A local area network (LAN) is a communications network that serves users within a confined geographical area. LANs are commonly used in homes, offices, schools, and other small-scale environments. They allow devices such as computers, printers, and servers to connect and share resources, data, and information within the local area. Unlike wide area networks (WANs) or global area networks (GANs) which cover larger areas, LANs are designed for smaller-scale connectivity needs.Rate this question:

What type of communications network links a broad geographical region?
- A.
Global area network(GAN)
- B.
Metropolitan area network(MAN)
- C.
Local area network(LAN)
- D.
Wide area network(WAN)
Correct Answer
B. Metropolitan area network(MAN)Explanation
A Metropolitan Area Network (MAN) is a type of communications network that connects a broad geographical region, typically within a city or metropolitan area. It covers a larger area than a Local Area Network (LAN) but is smaller than a Wide Area Network (WAN). MANs are designed to provide high-speed connectivity to businesses, organizations, and individuals within a specific geographic location, allowing them to share resources and communicate efficiently. This makes MAN the most suitable option for linking a broad geographical region.Rate this question:

- A.
Global area network(GAN)
- B.
Metropolitan area network(MAN)
- C.
Local area network(LAN)
- D.
Wide area network(WAN)
Correct Answer
A. Global area network(GAN)Explanation
A Global Area Network (GAN) is a type of communications network that links different interconnected networks over an unlimited geographical region. Unlike a Local Area Network (LAN) or Metropolitan Area Network (MAN), which have limited coverage areas, a GAN allows for communication and data transfer across vast distances. A Wide Area Network (WAN) is a similar concept, but it typically refers to a network that covers a larger area than a GAN. Therefore, the correct answer is Global Area Network (GAN).Rate this question:

How many users are usually in a peer to peer network?
- A.
10-50
- B.
2-10
- C.
50-250
- D.
250-1000
Correct Answer
B. 2-10Explanation
In a peer-to-peer network, the number of users typically ranges from 2 to 10. This is because peer-to-peer networks are designed for small-scale connections where users directly interact with each other without the need for a central server. This smaller number of users allows for efficient communication and sharing of resources between the peers. Additionally, with fewer users, it is easier to maintain security and manage the network effectively.Rate this question:

How many bits are typically covered in an internet protocol version 6 (IPv6) subnet mask?
- A.
24
- B.
64
- C.
48
- D.
128
Correct Answer
B. 64Explanation
An internet protocol version 6 (IPv6) subnet mask typically covers 64 bits. IPv6 uses a 128-bit address space, and the subnet mask is used to divide this address space into subnets. By using a 64-bit subnet mask, the first 64 bits of the IPv6 address are used to identify the network, while the remaining 64 bits are used to identify the host within that network. This allows for a large number of unique network addresses and a large number of unique host addresses within each network.Rate this question:

What device provides information concerning the network utilization and frame errors that are related to a specific protocol?
- A.
Connection statistics
- B.
Protocol statistics
- C.
Media access control(MAC) node statistics
- D.
Node discovery
Correct Answer
B. Protocol statisticsExplanation
Protocol statistics provide information concerning the network utilization and frame errors that are related to a specific protocol. This includes data on the performance and efficiency of the protocol, such as the number of packets transmitted and received, error rates, and overall network utilization. By analyzing protocol statistics, network administrators can identify any issues or bottlenecks in the network and take appropriate measures to optimize its performance.Rate this question:

What reports errors that occur at the physical layer such as bad frame check sequence(FCS) short frames,and jabbers?
- A.
Media access control(MAC) node statistics
- B.
Connection statistics
- C.
Protocol statistics
- D.
Node discovery
Correct Answer
A. Media access control(MAC) node statisticsExplanation
The correct answer is Media access control(MAC) node statistics. Media access control (MAC) node statistics provide information about errors that occur at the physical layer, such as bad frame check sequence (FCS), short frames, and jabbers. These statistics help in monitoring and troubleshooting network issues related to the physical layer.Rate this question:

What automatically runs in the backround when the protocol analyzer application is activated?
- A.
Media access control(MAC)
- B.
Connection statistics
- C.
Protocol statistics
- D.
Node discovery
Correct Answer
D. Node discoveryExplanation
When the protocol analyzer application is activated, node discovery automatically runs in the background. Node discovery is a process that identifies and maps the network nodes or devices present in a network. It helps in creating a network topology and allows the protocol analyzer to gather information about the network's structure and connections. This information is crucial for analyzing network traffic and troubleshooting network issues.Rate this question:
