Question :

(TCO B) You are working to resolve a problem with communication to an office in your building. The Sr. Network Engineer asks you to go get a mini-switch or repeater so that the source of the error can be resolved. What was the likely source of this error?

Student Answer:

Echo

Jitter

Crosstalk

Student Answer:

Parity Checking

Cyclical Redundancy Check

Checksum

Stop-and-Wait ARQ

Student Answer:

synchronous transmissions

High-level data link control

asynchronous transmissions

Continuous ARQ

Student Answer:

Contention based

Mixed Mode

Relative performance based

Controlled based

Question :

(TCO B) You are working with a co-worker over the phone to connect a router at your location in New York to their network in San Francisco. After hours of troubleshooting the WAN protocol configured on the routers you find that the root of the problem is that he has a Cisco router and you have a Nortel router.

8.

Question :

(TCO B) The key to selecting the best access control technique is to _______________.

Student Answer:

whether you are using mainframes or not

selecting the appropriate cable media

find the crossover point between controlled and contention

type of LAN

9.

Question :

(TCO B) In general, controlled approaches:

Student Answer:

work better than contention approaches for small networks that have low usage

work better than contention approaches for large networks that have high usage

work better than contention approaches for all sizes of networks

do not require a host, server, or active monitor to assign media access control

10.

Question :

(TCO B) With contention:

Student Answer:

computers wait until the circuit is free before they send data

the front end processor must wait for a response from the polled client or terminal

one computer starts the poll and passes it to the next computer on the multipoint circuit

there is never a chance of a “collision” or two computers trying to send data at the same time
