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. If you use Remote Desktop to allow users to control their desktops from remote computers across the Internet - you can use the ______ enforcement type to block access unless the client computer passes a health check.






2. NAP health validation takes place between two components:






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






4. 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).






5. 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.






6. A ______ determines whether a request should be processed by NPS.






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






8. 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.






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






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






11. The ______ defines health requirements using SHV settings. Separate ______ must exist for both compliant and noncompliant clients.






12. The NAP client sends the SSoH to the NAP ______ through the NAP enforcement point.






13. You can configure client NAP settings using the three subnodes:






14. 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.






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






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






17. 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.






18. 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:






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






20. VLANs are identified using a VLAN identifier - which must be configured on the switch itself. You can then use NAP to specify in which VLAN the ______ computers are placed.






21. The NAP health policy server uses the ______ to determine the level of access the client computer should have and whether any remediation is necessary.






22. The ______ are the server components that analyze the SoH generated by the SHA and create an SoH Response (SoHR).






23. NAP ______ allows you to identify noncompliant computers.






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






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






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






27. 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.






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






29. 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.






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






31. Typically - you apply an ACL to ______ computer connections and allow ______ computers to connect without an ACL (thus granting them unlimited network access).






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






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






34. 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 ______.






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






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






37. The ______ defines the level of network access clients get based on which health policy they match.






38. 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.






39. Windows Firewall ______ identifies connections that Windows Firewall allows or blocks.






40. The firewall profiles are:






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






42. Win Server 2008 and Win Server 2008 R2 include an SHV that corresponds to the SHA built into Windows ______.






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






44. ______ allows you to verify that computers meet specific health requirements before granting them unlimited access to your internal network.






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






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


47. 802.1X enforcement uses one of two methods to control which level of access compliant - noncompliant - and unauthenticated computers receive:






48. 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.






49. NAP depends on a Win Server 2008 or Win Server 2008 R2 NAP health policy server - which acts as a ______ server - to evaluate the health of client computers.
