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 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.






2. 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.






3. NAP health validation takes place between two components:






4. A health requirement policy is a combination of the following:






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






6. 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.






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






8. NAP ______ allows you to identify noncompliant computers.






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






10. 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).






11. 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 ______.






12. 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:






13. 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.






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






15. 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.






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






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






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






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






20. The firewall profiles are:






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






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






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


24. 802.1X enforcement uses one of two methods to control which level of access compliant - noncompliant - and unauthenticated computers receive:






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






26. 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.






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






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






29. NAP is designed to connect hosts to different network resources depending on their current ______.






30. 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.






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






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






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






34. ______ enforcement does not provide remediation.






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






36. 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.






37. You can quickly verify a client's configuration by running the following command at a command prompt:






38. You can also use IPsec connection security to allow healthy computers to ______ healthy computers.






39. 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.






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






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






42. Installing the HRA role service configures the following:






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






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






45. The Domain firewall profile applies whenever a computer can communicate with its ______.






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






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






48. 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.
