Cisco Q1

Question 1

IP address

Answer 1

Internet protocol address

Question 2

The email server runs email server software. Clients use mail client software, such as Microsoft outlook, to access on the server.

Answer 2

Email

Question 3

Client and server software usually run on separate computers, but it is also possible for one computer to be used for both roles at the same time.

In small businesses and homes, many computers function as the servers and clients on the network. This type of network is called a peer-to-peer network.

Answer 3

Peer-to-Peer

Question 4

USB

Answer 4

Universal Serial Bus

Question 5

NIC

Answer 5

network interface card

Question 6

The network devices that people are most familiar with are end devices. To distinguish one end device from another, each end device on a network has an address

Answer 6

End Devices

Question 7

. They can connect multiple individual networks to form an internetwork

Answer 7

Intermediary Devices

Question 8

Intermediary network devices perform some or all of these functions:

Answer 8

Regereate and retransmit communication signals
Maintain information about what pathways exist through the network and internetwork
Notify other devices of errors and communication failures
Direct data along alternative pathways when there is a link failure
Classify and direct messages according to priorities
Permit or deny the flow of data, based on security settings

Question 9

Network Media

Answer 9

Communication transmits across a network on media. The media provides the channel over which the message travels from source to destination

Question 10

Data is encoded into electrical impulses.

Answer 10

Answer 19

Physical topology diagrams

Question 20

topology diagrams illustrate devices, ports, and the addressing scheme of the network, as shown in the figure.

Answer 20

Logical topology diagrams

Question 21
