When a host knows its physical address but not its IP address, which protocol is used?

  1. ICMP

  2. IGMP

  3. ARP

  4. RARP


Correct Option: D
Explanation:

RARP stands for Reverse Address Resolution Protocol. It finds the logical address for a machine that knows only its physical address.One or more unique logical (IP) address is assigned to host or router and this address is independent from the physical (hardware) address of the machine because it knows the physical address, but not its IP adress, so this is the correct answer.

Which reports, errors, and other information help you to diagnose unsuccessful packet delivery?

  1. Internet Protocol

  2. Internet Control Message Protocol

  3. Internet Group Management Protocol

  4. Hypertext Transfer Protocol

  5. File Transfer Protocol


Correct Option: B
Explanation:

It reports errors and other information to help you diagnose unsuccessful packet delivery.

Which function is used for preamble in an Ethernet network?

  1. Clock synchronization

  2. Collision avoidance

  3. Broadcast

  4. None of these


Correct Option: A
Explanation:

Clock synchronization is used in the preamble of an Ethernet network. It provides synchronization and input timing to the frame to alert the receiving system.

  1. HTTP

  2. FTP

  3. TCP

  4. IGMP

  5. SNMP


Correct Option: D
Explanation:

It manages IP multicast group. It collects and exchanges network management information between a network management console and network devices.

______________ are fast computers that run various softwares, store and process information and also provide a human interface to the user to use the networked computers.

  1. Workstation

  2. Servers

  3. Nodes

  4. Either Workstation or Nodes

  5. None of these


Correct Option: B
Explanation:

Servers are fast computers that run various software's, store and process information and also provide a human interface to the user to use the networked computers.

Which of the following substitutes does a long zero level pulses with a combination of others levels to provide synchronization?

  1. Alternate mark inversion

  2. Scrambling

  3. Unipolar scheme

  4. Polar scheme

  5. Complexity


Correct Option: B
Explanation:

It substitutes long zero level pulses with a combination of other levels to provide synchronization.

Which of the following resolves the internet layer address to a network interface layer address such as a hardware address?

  1. Reverse Address Resolution Protocol

  2. Address Resolution Protocol

  3. Transmission Control Protocol

  4. Internet Control Message Protocol

  5. Serial line IP


Correct Option: B
Explanation:

It resolves the internet layer address to a network interface layer address such as hardware address.

Which of the following collects and exchanges network management information between a network management console and network devices?

  1. Internet protocol

  2. ICMP

  3. IGMP

  4. SNMP

  5. HTTP


Correct Option: D
Explanation:

It collects and exchanges network management information between a network management console and network devices.

Which of the following provides a one-to-one or one-to-many, connectionless and unreliable communication service?

  1. Transmission control protocol

  2. Internet control message protocol

  3. User datagram protocol

  4. Internet group management protocol

  5. HTTP


Correct Option: C
Explanation:

It provides a one to one or one to many, connectionless and unreliable communication service.

Which of the following is a protocol that routers use to exchange routing information on an IP Network?

  1. TCP

  2. ICMP

  3. IGMP

  4. RIP

  5. FTP


Correct Option: D
Explanation:

It is a protocol that routers use to exchange routing information on an IP network.

Which of the following establishes connections, sequences and acknowledges packet sent and recovers packets lost during transmission?

  1. Internet protocol

  2. TCP

  3. UDP

  4. IGMP

  5. FTP


Correct Option: B
Explanation:

It establishes connections, sequences and acknowledges packet sent and recovers packets lost during transmission.

Which of the following services can be thought of as different layers that use lower-level services to provide services to higher-level services in networking?

  1. Protocol

  2. Protocol stack

  3. Request For Comment

  4. Packet

  5. IP number


Correct Option: B
Explanation:

This services can be thought of as different layers that use lower-level services to provide services to higher-level services.

In which of the following is the UDP used as the transport protocol?

  1. HTTP

  2. SMTP

  3. NNTP

  4. DNS

  5. TELNET


Correct Option: D
Explanation:

DNS primarily uses User Datagram Protocol (UDP) on port number 53 to serve requests.

Which of the following is used primarily for low speed data communications between PCs and very small computers?

  1. Asynchronous Data Link Control Protocol

  2. Binary Synchronous Protocol

  3. Protocol

  4. Request For Comment

  5. IP Number


Correct Option: A
Explanation:

These are used for low speed data communications between PCs and very small computers.

Which field of a IPv4 header limits the lifetime of a datagram?

  1. Internet Header Length (IHL)

  2. Differentiated Services Code Point (DSCP)

  3. Explicit Congestion Notification (ECN)

  4. Time To Live (TTL)

  5. Protocol


Correct Option: D
Explanation:

Time to live (TTL) or hop limit is a mechanism that limits the lifespan or lifetime of data in a computer or network. TTL may be implemented as a counter or timestamp attached to or embedded in the data. Once the prescribed event count or timespan has elapsed, data is discarded.

Which of the following fields defines the protocol used in the data portion of the IP datagram?

  1. Least recently used

  2. First in first out

  3. Optimal Page Replacement Policy

  4. Second-chance Algorithm

  5. Clock algorithm


Correct Option: C
Explanation:

In Optimal Page Replacement Policy, when a page needs to be swapped in, the operating system swaps out the page whose next use will occur farthest in the future.

Which network layer protocol is used to test the internet?

  1. Internet Control Message Protocol

  2. Address Resolution Protocol

  3. Reverse Address Resolution Protocol

  4. Open Shortest Path First

  5. Border Gateway Protocol


Correct Option: A
Explanation:

Internet Control Message Protocol (ICMP) is used to test the internet. ICMP messages are typically used for diagnostic or control purposes or generated in response to errors in IP operations.
