Subject : it-skills
Instructions:
  • Answer 50 questions in 15 minutes.
  • If you are not ready to take this test, you can study here.
  • Match each statement with the correct term.
  • Don't refresh. All questions and answers are randomly picked and ordered every time you load a test.

This is a study tool. The 3 wrong answers for each question are randomly chosen from answers to other questions. So, you might find at times the answers obvious, but you will see it re-enforces your understanding as you take the test each time.

10. Layer 2 Troubleshooting






11. IEEE standard for error and flow control in data frames






12. Refers to the IEEE 802.3z and IEEE 802.3ab standard for Ethernet communications speed up to 1 Gbps.






13. Short tube within a fiber-optic cable connector that encircles the fiber strand and keeps in properly aligned






14. Control frame that indicates to the rest of the network that a particular node has the right to transmit data






15. Alert or alarm that occurs in the absence of an actual attack






16. The IEEE standard for broadband wireless metropolitan area networking (also known as WiMax)






17. PPP






18. Data Link Layer






19. Ppp tunneling protocol






20. Indication a system has just been attacked or is under attack






21. CHAP






22. GSNW






23. Generates signals as changes in voltage at the NIC






24. Layer 2 Troubleshooting






25. This phase determines how often systems should send each other quality statistics.






26. Method of trasmitting data from a satellite






27. Speed: 1000 Mbps - Altenative name: 1000BASE-T - IEEE Standard: IEEE 802.3ab - Cable type: copper max length 100m






28. Provides service that ensure accurate and timely delivery of network communications between two hosts






29. After typing ping 127.0.0.1 - it tells you the test failed






30. The physical layout of a computer network






31. BSD






32. Distinct communication path between two or more nodes; may be separated logically or physically






33. Zeroconf






34. A type of transmission in which the entire channel capacity of the communications medium (such as cable) is used by one data signal - enabling only one node to transmit at a time.






35. Divides channel into different time slots and assigns data to nodes who are attached to time slots






36. A type of transmission that can vary continuously - as in a wave pattern with positive and negative voltage levels.






37. A network design in which every node is connected to every other node - achieving fault tolerance.






38. Can use WPA to improve the security of data in transit






39. A versatile - chainable serial-bus technology that connects up to 127 devices at speeds of 1.5 Mbps and 12 Mbps as well as 480 Mbps.






40. Basic error checking and correction






41. Point to point protocol






42. More variable - convey greater subtleties with less energy






43. Application layer protocol used to access information stored in a directory






44. Technique for formatting signals in which one property of a carrier wave is modified by the addition of a data signal during transmission






45. A TCP/Ip troubleshooting utility that displays statistics and the state of current TCP/IP connections. It also displays ports - which can signal whether services are using the correct ports.






46. AFP






47. Appends physical address of destination computer onto the frame






48. Standard rating that indicates the diameter of a wire






49. Analog - only one direction. radio frequency analog waves w differences in frequency. expensive - longer distance. ex. cable TV
