Why is Network Address Translation (NAT) a benefit to corporations?
- A.
It converts MAC addresses to IP addresses.
- B.
It allows corporations to hide private addresses from the public.
- C.
It links specific portions of an internal network with corporate cost centers.
- D.
It enables protocol conversion between network entities such as SANs and application servers.
Correct Answer
B. It allows corporations to hide private addresses from the public.Explanation
NAT is a benefit to corporations because it allows them to hide their private addresses from the public. This means that when devices from the internal network access the internet, their private IP addresses are translated to a public IP address. This provides an added layer of security as it prevents direct communication between external entities and internal devices, making it harder for attackers to target the internal network. Additionally, NAT conserves IP addresses as multiple devices can share a single public IP address.Rate this question:

D. The maximum number of concurrent jobs for the subsystem has been reached.Explanation
The increase in the number of jobs in the job queue can be attributed to the subsystem reaching its maximum number of concurrent jobs. Once the maximum limit is reached, any new jobs that are submitted to the subsystem will be added to the job queue instead of being immediately processed. This backlog of jobs in the queue leads to the increase in the number of jobs.Rate this question:

An administrator creates a new user profile and assigns that new profile to two groups, GROUP1 and GROUP2. GROUP1 has update authority for APP1 application. GROUP2 has only read authority to APP2 application. The new user is able to access APP1 and APP2 as expected. A month later the administrator needs to stop the user from updating APP1 and assigns the user to GROUP3, which only has read authority to APP1. However, the user can still update APP1. What is the most likely cause of this problem?
- A.
The administrator did not remove GROUP1 from the user profile.
- B.
The system was not restarted to make the group profile changes effective.
- C.
GROUP3 was not first in the list of group profiles to restrict update to APP1.
- D.
The administrator did not remove all of the Individual Authorities from the GROUP1 profile for that user.
Correct Answer
A. The administrator did not remove GROUP1 from the user profile.Explanation
The most likely cause of the problem is that the administrator did not remove GROUP1 from the user profile. Since the user was initially assigned to GROUP1, which had update authority for APP1, the user still retains that authority even after being assigned to GROUP3, which only has read authority. To resolve the issue, the administrator should remove GROUP1 from the user profile to remove the update authority for APP1.Rate this question:
