MCTS: Configuring Windows Firewall And Network Access Protection

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. Use the ______ subnode to configure cryptographic settings for NAP clients (the default settings are typically fine).






2. You must enable one policy to configure clients to use this enforcement type.






3. Health ______ determine which clients must meet health requirements - what those health requirements are - and what happens if a client cannot comply.






4. By default - Windows Firewall (as well as most other firewalls) ______.


5. To install NAP - first install the ______ role - then select the Network Policy Server check box on the Select Role Services page.






6. With the DHCP servers enforcement type - only ______ computers receive an IP address that grants full network access; ______computers are granted an IP address with a subnet mask of 255.255.255.255 and no default gateway.






7. If an application must accept incoming connections but the developers have not documented the communication ports that the application uses - you can use the ______ tool to identify which ports the application listens on.






8. Each SHV produces a _____ - which can contain remediation instructions (such as the version number of an antivirus signature file) if the client doesn't meet that SHV's health requirements.






9. The ______ enforcement type uses Ethernet switches or wireless access points that support 802.1X authentication.






10. The ______ type enforces NAP for remote access connections using a VPN server running Win Server 2008 or Win Server 2008 R2 and Routing and Remote Access.






11. In networking - ______ analyze communications and drop packets that haven't been specifically allowed.






12. 802.1X enforcement uses one of two methods to control which level of access compliant - noncompliant - and unauthenticated computers receive:






13. A group of servers that noncompliant clients can access is a ______.






14. The ______ enforcement type uses a computer running Win Server 2008 or Win Server 2008 R2 and the DHCP Server service that provides IP addresses to intranet clients.






15. Configure the ______ policy to provide customized text (and - optionally - an image) that users will see as part of the NAP client interface.






16. The Private profile must be ______ applied to a network. The Public profile applies any time a ______ is not available - and a network has not been configured as Private.






17. For NAP to work - a network component must enforce NAP by either allowing or denying network access. The following list describes the different NAP enforcement types you can use:






18. One of the most powerful ways to increase computer security is to configure firewall ______.






19. If a computer falls out of compliance after connecting to the 802.1X network - the 802.1X network access device can change the computer's ______.






20. When deploying NAP - plan to implement it in ______ mode first. This will allow you to identify and fix noncompliant computers before preventing them from connecting to your network.






21. By default - all versions of Windows (including Win Srvr 2008 R2) ______ outbound traffic.






22. Typically - a NAP deployment occurs in three phases:






23. The NAP health policy server sends the SSoHR back to the NAP client through the NAP enforcement point. The NAP enforcement point can now connect a ______ computer to the network or connect a ______ computer to a remediation network.






24. NAP ______ allows you to identify noncompliant computers.






25. In the case of _____ - automated software attacks computers across the Internet - gains elevated privileges - copies itself to the compromised computer - and then begins attacking other computers (typically at random).






26. The only time you would want to configure the scope using the ______ group is when the computer is configured with multiple IP addresses - and you do not want to accept connections on all IP addresses.






27. The 802.1X access point applies the ACL to the connection and ______ all packets that are not allowed by the ACL.






28. With 802.1X - compliant computers are granted full network access - and noncompliant computers are connected to a ______ network or completely prevented from connecting to the network.






29. The NAP health policy server combines the SoHRs from the multiple SHVs into a ______.






30. ______ enforcement does not provide remediation.






31. With VPN server enforcement enabled - only ______ are granted unlimited network access.






32. The NAP health policy server uses its installed SHVs and the health requirement policies that you have configured to determine whether the NAP client ______.






33. Win 7 - Win Vista - Win Server 2008 - Win Server 2008 R2 - and Win XP SP3 include an ______ that monitors Windows Security Center settings.






34. IPsec enforcement requires a CA running Win Server ______ or ________ Certificate Services and NAP to support health certificates.






35. Use the ______ subnode to configure an HRA for IPsec NAP clients to use.






36. The ______ are the client components that create a Statement of Health (SoH) containing a description of the health of the client computer.






37. ______ define which health checks a client must meet to be considered compliant.






38. Each SHA on the NAP client validates its system health and generates an SoH. The NAP client combines the SoHs from multiple SHAs into a ______ - which includes version info for the NAP client and the set of SoHs for the installed SHAs.






39. The ______ enforcement type requires clients to perform a NAP health check before they can receive a health certificate.






40. NAP health validation takes place between two components:






41. Which NAP enforcement types do not require support from your network infrastructure?






42. Installing the HRA role service configures the following:






43. You need to create outbound firewall rules only when you configure outbound connections to be ______.






44. Which versions of Windows can act as NAP clients?






45. IPsec enforcement allows you to require health compliance on a ______ or a ______ basis.






46. After configuring the NPS server - you must configure client computers for NAP. The easiest way to do this is to use ______ node.






47. To install HRA - first install the ______ role - then select the Network Policy Server check box on the Select Role Services page.
