Exam 1: Introducing Tcp/Ip

What are applied to the packets that are captured into the trace buffer so you can see the packets in a readable format?

The primary function of the ____________________ layer is to provide a globally unique address to every host on the Internet and paths to and from hosts.

The original ARPANET was a packet-switched network.

Which layer of the OSI model works with frames?

Match each item with a statement below. a.Alarm b.Anycast packet c.Checkpoint d.Data link layer e.Frame f.Packet g.Runt h.Datagram i.Host -manages point-to-point transmission across the networking medium, from one computer to another on a single logical or physical cable segment

The reference model described in ISO Standard 7498 breaks network communication into seven layers. List each layer from top to bottom.

Provide brief descriptions of the following protocols: High-level Data Link Control (HDLC) protocol and frame relay.

Match each item with a statement below. a.Alarm b.Anycast packet c.Checkpoint d.Data link layer e.Frame f.Packet g.Runt h.Datagram i.Host -the PDU associated with the Network layer

Which layer includes the physical transmission medium (cables or wireless media) that any network must use to send and receive the signals that constitute the physical expression of networked communications?

What are TCP/IP application processes such as FTP and SMTP sometimes called?

Briefly describe the three primary tasks that the Internet layer handles for TCP/IP.

What is the difference between the Open Shortest Path First protocol and the Border Gateway Protocol?

The entire IPv6 address space is now occupied.

In which layer are notions of network location addressed and the intricacies of directing a PDU from sender to receiver handled?

The Session layer includes mechanisms to maintain reliable ongoing conversations, called ____________________.

The most important TCP/IP Network Access layer protocol is ____________________.

____________________ involves cutting up a big message into a numbered sequence of chunks, called segments, in which each chunk represents the maximum data payload that the network media can carry between sender and receiver.

Match each item with a statement below. a.Alarm b.Anycast packet c.Checkpoint d.Data link layer e.Frame f.Packet g.Runt h.Datagram i.Host -a point in time at which all system state and information is captured and saved

Which term refers to a single logical network composed of multiple physical networks, which may all be at a single physical location, or spread among multiple physical locations?

Briefly describe three options for analyzing switched networks.
