Chapter 1 Flashcards
What are the first hex digits of an IPv6 link-local address?
FE80
What are the first hex digits of an IPv6 multicast address?
FF
What are the first hex digits of an IPv6 unique local address?
FD or less commonly, FC
(binary format is 11111110)
What kind of IPv6 address is publicly routable?
Global unicast
What IPv6 address is private?
Unique local
How many bits long are IPv6 addresses?
128
What does an IPv6 address that pings all nodes look like?
FF02::1
What does EUI-64 do?
Generates the local, 64-bit, part of the IPv6 address from a 48-bit MAC address
7th bit of the MAC address is flipped, and FFFE is inserted in the middle
What happens if a PoE port exceeds the maximum administrative value for power?
The port is shut down and error-disabled
What is the most reliable WAN topology?
Full-mesh
What is a benefit of using a three-tier network topology over a collapsed core topology?
Increased redundancy and availability
Separation of core and distribution layer
Which network topology has the same number of hops between devices?
Spine-and-leaf
What is a disadvantage of full-mesh typologies?
Complex configuration
High cost
What WAN topology leverages a dedicated connection?
Point-to-point
Which part of an Ethernet frames helps the receiver know that it’s actual data?
Preamble
What does “media type is SFP-SR/LR” indicate?
The type of transceiver (small form-factor pluggable) being used, short reach/long reach
What is a benefit of using optical-fiber cabling as opposed to copper cabling?
Greater throughput
Support signals for longer distances
What is something that can cause a port to be placed in an error-disabled state?
Link flapping
Port security violation
What is something that can cause late collisions on an Ethernet interface?
Duplex mismatch
Exceeded cable length limits
FTP uses which ports?
TCP 20 and 21
SSH uses which port?
TCP 22
SMTP uses which port?
TCP 25
What kind of IPv6 address is equivalent to a public IPv4 address?
Global unicast
What kind of IPv6 address is used on a single link for purposes such as automatic address configuration, neighbor discovery, or in the absence of routers
Link-local
