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






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






3. Use the ______ snap-in to create an inbound firewall rule that allows a server application to receive incoming connections.






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






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






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






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






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






9. 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:






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






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






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






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






14. 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).






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






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






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






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






19. 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.






20. 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.






21. 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.






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






23. 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.






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






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






26. NAP health validation takes place between two components:






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






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






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






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






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






32. The firewall profiles are:






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






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






35. 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.






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






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






38. 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.






39. 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.






40. This installs the core NPS service - which is sufficient for using the Win Server 2008 computer as a RADIUS server for ______ - ______ - or ______ enforcement.






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






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






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






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






45. ______ enforcement does not provide remediation.






46. 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.






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






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






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






50. 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.
