there is no compulsion of using the Cisco devices in both the ends, which means these are interoperable. PPP also supports multiple protocols and support authentication. What is PPP? - Correct Answer: Point-to-Point Protocol (PPP) is a Data Link layer protocol that can be used over either asynchronous serial (dial-up) or synchronous serial (ISDN) media. It uses Link Control Protocol (LCP) to build and maintain data-link connections. Network Control Protocol (NCP) is used to allow multiple Network layer protocols (routed protocols) to be used on a point-to-point connection. The basic purpose of PPP is to transport layer 3 packets across a Data Link layer point-to-point link, and it's nonproprietary. The PPP protocol stack is specified at the Physical and Data Link layers only. In 802.11 wireless topology, what is BSS in Infrastructure? - Correct Answer: Basic Service Set; Consist of a single AP interconnecting all associated wireless clients. The radius of which it covers in it wireless range is called a Basic Service Area (BSA). Layer 2 MAC address of the AP is used to uniquely ID each BSS which is called a Basic Service Set Identifier (BSSID). In 802.11 wireless topology, what is ESS in infrastructure? - Correct Answer: Extended Service Set ESS is ID by a SSID and each BSS is ID by its BSSID. When you need more coverage, two or more BSS can join through a common distribution system (DS) into an ESS. The whole covered area is called an Extended Service Area (ESA). A client in one BSA can now communicate with other clients in another BSA within the same ESS. Like a roaming cell phone user may move from one BSA to another and it would be seamless Since WLAN are half-duplex, what do we use to avoid collision? - Correct Answer: (CSMA/CA) carrier sense multiple access with collision avoidance.
