    Which of the following defines the type of connections or technology used in a network?

    • Network diagram

    • Demarc

    • Wiring diagram

    • Baseline

    Correct Answer
    A. Network diagram
    Explanation
    A network diagram is a visual representation of the connections and technology used in a network. It shows how devices are connected to each other and the overall structure of the network. It provides a clear and concise overview of the network's architecture, allowing administrators to understand and manage the network effectively. The other options, Demarc, Wiring diagram, and Baseline, do not specifically define the type of connections or technology used in a network.

    John wants to analyze the procedure for adding a new file server on his network. What should he do?

    • Check the change management documentation

    • Ask his supervisor

    • Redraw the network diagram

    • Redraw the wiring diagram

    Correct Answer
    A. Check the change management documentation
    Explanation
    John should check the change management documentation to analyze the procedure for adding a new file server on his network. Change management documentation typically outlines the steps and processes involved in making changes to a network, including adding new servers. By referring to this documentation, John can ensure that he follows the correct procedure and avoids any potential issues or conflicts with the existing network infrastructure. This will help him effectively and efficiently add the new file server to his network.

    How can you ensure that your servers will continue to run during a blackout?

    • Install a backup generator

    • Implement network monitoring

    • Install a traffic shaper

    • Implement load balancing

    Correct Answer
    A. Install a backup generator
    Explanation
    Installing a backup generator is the most effective way to ensure that servers continue to run during a blackout. A backup generator can provide uninterrupted power supply to the servers, keeping them operational even when the main power source fails. This ensures that critical systems and services can continue to function without any disruption, minimizing downtime and maintaining business continuity.

    What tool in Windows enables you to look at log files?

    • Event Viewer

    • Performance Monitor

    • Network Monitor

    • Baseline Viewer

    Correct Answer
    A. Event Viewer
    Explanation
    The Event Viewer is a tool in Windows that allows users to view and analyze log files. It provides detailed information about system events, including application errors, security events, and hardware failures. By examining the log files in the Event Viewer, users can troubleshoot issues, monitor system performance, and track system events for auditing purposes.

    Which of the following describes how physical wires connect in a network?

    • Wiring diagram

    • Baseline

    • Network diagram

    • Demarc

    Correct Answer
    A. Wiring diagram
    Explanation
    A wiring diagram is a visual representation of the physical connections of wires in a network. It shows how the various components of the network are interconnected using different types of cables and connectors. This diagram helps in understanding the layout and structure of the network, including the placement of devices, switches, and routers, and how they are connected to each other. It is a useful tool for network administrators and technicians to troubleshoot and maintain the network infrastructure.

  • 7. 

    What defines the performance of the network when everything is working properly?

    • Baseline

    • Network diagram

    • Wiring diagram

    • Demarc

    Correct Answer
    A. Baseline
    Explanation
    The performance of a network when everything is working properly is defined by a baseline. A baseline is a reference point that represents the normal functioning of the network. It includes various metrics such as network latency, bandwidth utilization, and error rates. By establishing a baseline, network administrators can monitor and compare the network's performance over time, detect anomalies or deviations from the norm, and take appropriate actions to maintain optimal network performance.

  • 8. 

    What tool enables you to view the behavior of hardware and other resources on a computer?

    • Performance Monitor

    • Baseline

    • System Monitor

    • Network Monitor

    Correct Answer
    A. Performance Monitor
    Explanation
    Performance Monitor is the correct answer because it is a tool that allows users to monitor and analyze the behavior of hardware and other resources on a computer. It provides real-time and historical data about the performance of the system, including CPU usage, memory usage, disk activity, network activity, and more. By using Performance Monitor, users can identify performance bottlenecks, troubleshoot issues, and optimize the performance of their computer.

    What is the minimum number of drives required for a RAID 5 array?

    • Three

    • Four

    • Two

    • One

    Correct Answer
    A. Three
    Explanation
    A RAID 5 array requires a minimum of three drives. This is because RAID 5 uses striping with parity, where data is distributed across multiple drives along with parity information. The parity information allows for data recovery in case of a single drive failure. With three drives, there are two data drives and one parity drive. If one drive fails, the data can still be reconstructed using the parity information on the remaining drives. Therefore, three drives are required for a RAID 5 array.

    Grandfather, father, son is an example of what?

    • Backup rotation

    • Bandwidth shaping

    • RAID array

    • Log file entries

    Correct Answer
    A. Backup rotation
    Explanation
    Grandfather, father, son is an example of backup rotation. This term refers to a method of managing backups where multiple copies of data are created and stored over a period of time. In this specific rotation scheme, the "grandfather" backup represents the oldest copy, the "father" backup represents a more recent copy, and the "son" backup represents the most recent copy. This approach ensures that multiple versions of the data are available for recovery purposes, providing a level of data protection and allowing for easy restoration from different points in time.
