QUESTION: 1

Mark works as a Network Administrator for Company Inc. The company has a Windows-based network. The California branch of Company has been divided into two buildings in the same campus. The company wants to interconnect these two buildings for proper communication among all the departments.
Which of the following network types should Mark use to accomplish the task?

MAN
WAN
LAN
CAN

Answer(s): D

Explanation:

A campus area network (CAN) is a computer network that interconnects local area networks throughout a limited geographical area, such as a university campus, a corporate campus, or a military base. It could be considered a metropolitan area network that is specific to a campus setting.
A campus area network is, therefore, larger than a local area network but smaller than a wide area network. The term is sometimes used to refer to university campuses, while the term corporate area network is used to refer to corporate campuses instead. Although not considered a wide area network, a CAN extends the reach of each local area network within the campus area of an organization. In a CAN, the buildings of a university or corporate campus are interconnected using the same types of hardware and networking technologies that one would use in a LAN. In addition, all of the components, including switches, routers, and cabling, as well as wireless connection points, are owned and maintained by the organization.
Answer option C is incorrect. Local Area Network (LAN) represents a network that covers a very close geographic area, such as a floor of a building, a building itself, or a campus environment. LAN is a high-speed network that connects computers, printers, and other network devices together. The media types used in LANs include Ethernet, Fast Ethernet (FE), Gigabit Ethernet (GE), Token Ring, and FDDI.
A LAN may include servers, workstations, hubs, bridges, switches, routers, gateways, firewalls, etc.
Answer option A is incorrect.
A Metropolitan Area Network (MAN) is a network that interconnects users with computer resources in a geographic area or region larger than that covered by even a large Local Area Network (LAN) but smaller than the area covered by a Wide Area Network (WAN). The term is applied to the interconnection of networks in a city into a single larger network (which may then also offer efficient connection to a wide area network). It is also used to mean the interconnection of several local area networks by bridging them with backbone lines. The latter usage is also sometimes referred to as a campus network.
A MAN usually interconnects a number of local area networks (LANs) using a high- capacity backbone technology, such as fiber-optical links, and provides up-link services to wide area networks and the Internet. Examples of metropolitan area networks of various sizes can be found in the metropolitan areas of London, England; Lodz, Poland; and Geneva, Switzerland. Large universities also sometimes use the term to describe their networks.
A recent trend is the installation of wireless MANs.
Answer option B is incorrect.
A wide area network (WAN) is a geographically dispersed telecommunications network. The term distinguishes a broader telecommunication structure from a local area network (LAN).
A wide area network may be privately owned or rented, but the term usually connotes the inclusion of public (shared user) networks. An intermediate form of network in terms of geography is a metropolitan area network (MAN).
A wide area network is also defined as a network of networks, as it interconnects LANs over a wide geographical area.

QUESTION: 2

Which of the following organizations offers technical assistance to the developing countries in the field of telecommunications and regulates international radio and telecommunications?

ISO
ANSI
ITU-T
IEEE
W3C

Answer(s): C

Explanation:

The International Telecommunication Union (ITU) is an organization established to standardize and regulate international radio and telecommunications. Its main tasks include standardization, allocation of the radio spectrum, and organizing interconnection arrangements between different countries to allow international phone calls. ITU sets standards for global telecom networks. The ITU's telecommunications division (ITU-T) produces more than 200 standard recommendations each year in the converging areas of telecommunications, information technology, consumer electronics, broadcasting and multimedia communications. ITU was streamlined into the following three sectors:
ITU-D (Telecommunication Development)
ITU-R (Radio communication)
ITU-T (Telecommunication Standardization)
Answer option B is incorrect. ANSI (American National Standards Institute) is the primary organization for fostering the development of technology standards in the United States. ANSI works with industry groups and is the U.S. member of the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) and the International Electro-technical Commission (IEC). Long-established computer standards from ANSI include the American Standard Code for Information Interchange (ASCII) and the Small Computer System Interface (SCSI).
Answer option D is incorrect. The Institute of Electrical and Electronic Engineers (IEEE) is a society of technical professionals. It promotes the development and application of electro-technology and allied sciences. IEEE develops communications and network standards, among other activities. The organization publishes number of journals, has many local chapters, and societies in specialized areas.
Answer option A is incorrect. The International Organization for Standardization, widely known as ISO, is an international-standard-setting body composed of representatives from various national standards organizations. Founded on 23 February 1947, the organization promulgates worldwide proprietary industrial and commercial standards. It has its headquarters in Geneva, Switzerland.
While ISO defines itself as a non- governmental organization, its ability to set standards that often become law, either through treaties or national standards, makes it more powerful than most non-governmental organizations. In practice, ISO acts as a consortium with strong links to governments.
Answer option E is incorrect.

The World Wide Web Consortium (W3C) is an international industry consortium that develops common standards for the World Wide Web to promote its evolution and interoperability. It was founded in October 1994 by Tim Berners-Lee, the inventor of the Web, at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Laboratory for Computer Science [MIT/LCS] in collaboration with CERN, where the Web had originated , with support from DARPA and the European Commission.

QUESTION: 3

Which of the following is used to publish frequently updated works such as blog entries, news headlines, audio, and video on the Web sites?

Podcast
ActiveX
RSS
Digital certificate

Answer(s): C

Explanation:

RSS (most commonly translated as "Really Simple Syndication" but sometimes "Rich Site Summary") is a family of Web feed formats used to publish frequently updated works such as blog entries, news headlines, audio, and video in a standardized format.An RSS document (which is called a "feed", "Web feed", or "channel") includes full or summarized text, plus metadata such as publishing dates and authorship. Web feeds benefit publishers by letting them syndicate content automatically. They benefit readers who want to subscribe to timely updates from favored Web sites or to aggregate feeds from many sites into one place. RSS feeds can be read using software called an "RSS reader", "feed reader", or "aggregator", which can be Web-based, desktop-based, or mobile-device-based.
A standardized XML file format allows the information to be published once and viewed by many different programs. The user subscribes to a feed by entering into the reader the feed's URI - often referred to informally as a "URL" (Uniform Resource Locator), although technically the two terms are not exactly synonymous - or by clicking an RSS icon in a browser that initiates the subscription process. The RSS reader checks the user's subscribed feeds regularly for new work, downloads any updates that it finds, and provides a user interface to monitor and read the feeds.
Answer option A is incorrect.
A podcast (or netcast) is a series of digital media files (either audio or video) that are released episodically and often downloaded through web syndication. The mode of delivery differentiates podcasting from other means of accessing media files over the Internet, such as direct download, or streamed webcasting.
Answer option B is incorrect. ActiveX is a framework for defining reusable software components that perform a particular function or a set of functions in Microsoft Windows in a way that is independent of the programming language used to implement them.
A software application can then be composed from one or more of these components in order to provide its functionality. Many Microsoft Windows applications - including many of those from Microsoft itself, such as Internet Explorer, Microsoft Office, Microsoft Visual Studio, and Windows Media Player use ActiveX controls to build their feature-set and also encapsulate their own functionality as ActiveX controls which can then be embedded into other applications. Internet Explorer also allows embedding ActiveX controls onto web pages.
Answer option D is incorrect.
A digital certificate is an electronic 'credit card' that establishes an individual's credentials when doing.

business or other transactions on the Web. It is issued by a certification authority (CA). It contains the name, a serial number, expiration dates, a copy of the certificate holder's public key (used for encrypting messages and digital signatures), and the digital signature of the certificate-issuing authority so that a recipient can verify that the certificate is real. Some digital certificates conform to a standard, X.509. Digital certificates can be kept in registries so that authenticating users can look up other users' public keys.

QUESTION: 4

You work as a Security Administrator for Net Perfect Inc. The company has a Windows-based network. The employees use Internet Explorer for Internet surfing. You want to block access to the vulnerable sites from the internal network of the company. To accomplish the task, you need to configure some security settings for Internet Explorer.
Which of the following features of Internet Explorer do you need to configure?

Pop-up blocker
InPrivate Browsing
Content Advisor
Internet Explorer Compatibility Evaluator

Answer(s): C

Explanation:

Content Advisor is a feature of Internet Explorer that allows an administrator to control the Internet contents that can be viewed on a single computer. Before configuring the Content Advisor, it needs to be enabled.
When it is enabled, Internet Explorer first checks whether the website meets the specified criteria or not.
A user can adjust the content rating settings to reflect the appropriate level of content in the areas of language, sex, nudity, and violence. He can also create a list of websites that are always viewable or never viewable regardless of the contents.
Answer option D is incorrect. The Internet Explorer Compatibility Evaluator (IECE) allows a user to determine whether a Web site or Web application will run properly in a new version of Internet Explorer such as Windows Internet Explorer 7. IECE works by enabling compatibility logging in Internet Explorer, parsing logged issues, and creating a log file for uploading to the ACT Log Processing Service.
A user can view the compatibility issues located by IECE as a report with the help of the Application Compatibility Manager.
Answer option B is incorrect. InPrivate Browsing is a feature of Internet Explorer 8.
When this feature is active, Internet Explorer does not store history, cookies, temporary Internet files, or other data, thus protecting privacy of the user while using Internet Explorer 8. InPrivate Browsing can be activated by pressing Ctrl+Shift+P. This feature is quite helpful when a user does not want to leave any trace of his Web browsing activity such as, e-mailing at an Internet cafe or shopping for a gift.
Answer option A is incorrect. Pop-up blocker is a feature of Internet Explorer (IE) 7+. It enables users to block most pop-ups while they are surfing the Internet on their computers. Users can choose the level of blocking. They can either block all pop-up windows or allow pop-ups they want to see. By default, the pop-up blocker is enabled in IE 7+.
While the pop-up blocker is enabled, a user can see the blocked pop-ups by clicking the IE 7+ information bar.
