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.
1. A network design built by running cable from one PC of file server to the next - like links in a chain.






2. Bus topology: A network design built by running cable from one PC or file server to the next - like links in a chain.






3. UN agency that regulates international telecommunications and provides developing countries with technical expertise and equipment to advance their technological bases






4. Cross talk with 2+ wires






5. 500 meters - 10Mbps






6. Is a protocol designed for managing complex networks






7. Event that triggers alarms and causes an IDPS to react as if a real attack is in progress






8. Metropolitan area network






9. This layer in the OSI network model manages log on procedures and password recognition.






10. A type of address translation in which a limited pool of internet-valid IP addresses is shared by multiple private network hosts.






11. Signals traveling on one wire infringes on the signal traveling over an adjacent wire






12. Transport Layer






13. ISDN






14. Consists of single cable that connects all nodes on a network without intervening connectivity devices - inexpensive - hard to find source of error - not very fault tolerant - data is transmitted in one direction in the ring.






15. EMI interference induced on one cable by signals traveling on a nearby cable






16. Name Of Layer 2






17. A private network that functions like a tunnel through a larger network






18. More reliable then analog - noise doesn't affect as much - more efficient - fewer errors






19. Strategy in which all control functions are applied at the physical location of each IDPS component






20. SCP






21. OSPF






22. Ppp tunneling protocol






23. Attacker who utilizes tactics designed to trip the organization's IDPS - essentially causing the organization to conduct its own DoS attack - but overreacting to an actual - but insignificant - attack.






24. Modulates digital into analog in transmitting end and demodulates analog into digital in recieving end






25. LPD






26. 185 meters - 10Mbps






27. Network interface card






28. Manages end-to-end delivery of data






29. Communications arrangement in which a single transmitter issues signals to multiple - defined recipients






30. A high-capacity communications medium that joins networks on the same floor in a building - on different floors - and across long distances.






31. PPTP






32. Transport protocol and TCP/IP port that uses telnet utility use






33. Data Link Layer






34. An organization composed of more than 100 representatives from industry and government who together determine standards for the electronics industry in addition to other fields - such as chemical and nuclear engineering.






35. Eight bits of information; in a digital signaling system - one byte carries one piece of information






36. Which protocol provides the user with many functions of the world wide web?






37. HTTPS - Secure implementation of HTTP






38. A specially configured connection on a network device that is capable of viewing all the traffic that moves through the entire device.






39. The NIC and network equipment are set up so they cannot send and receive at the same time






40. Frequency division multiplexing






41. Which protocol allows the transfer of a file from one computer to another over the network?






42. Voltage is varied and imprecise - more susceptible






43. Physical Layer






44. The process in which an attacker obtains confidential information by contacting employees and deceiving them into giving up passwords - IP addresses - server names - and so on.






45. SSID






46. Layer 5 through 7 Troubleshooting






47. The more resistant to cross talk (STP)






48. Glass or plastic shield around the core of a fiber-optic cable; reflects light back to the core in patterns that vary depending on the transmission mode






49. A type of address translation in which each private IP address is correlated with its own Internet-recognized IP address.






50. Which layer in the OSI network model handles data format information for networked communications?
