Questions and Answers Graded A+
What software allows you to define VMs and
manage resource allocation and sharing among
them on a host computer?
A. Hypervisor
B. NVF (Network Functions Virtualizations)
C. SDN (software-defined technology)
D. Terminal Emulation - ANSWER -- A.
Hypervisor
- A Hypervisor, creates and manages a VM, and
manages resource allocation and sharing
between a host and any of its guest VMs.
What virtual, logically defined device operates at
the Data Link layer to pass frames between
nodes?
A. Virtual Firewall
B. Virtual Switch
C. Virtual Router
D. Virtual Load Balancer - ANSWER -- B.
Virtual Switch
- As soon as the virtual machine's vNIC is
selected, the hypervisor creates a connection
between that VM and the host. Depending on the
hypervisor, this connection might be called a
bridge or a switch. This vSwitch (virtual switch) or
bridge is a logically defined device that operates
at the Data Link layer to pass frames between
nodes.
With which network connection type does the VM
obtain IP addressing information from its host?
A. Bridged Mode
B. Managed Mode
C. NAT Mode
D. Host-Only Mode - ANSWER -- C. NAT
mode
- NAT MODE, a vNIC relies on the host machine
to act as a NAT device. The VM obtains IP
addressing information form its host, rather than
a server or router on the physical network.
Which cloud computing services model gives
software developers access to multiple operating
systems for testing?
A. IaaS
B. PaaS
C. SaaS
D. XaaS - ANSWER -- B. PaaS
- PaaS (Platform as a Service), developers often
require access to multiple platforms during the
development process. A platform in this context
includes the operating system, the runtime
libraries or modules the OS provides to
applications, and the hardware on which the OS
runs.
What service in Windows Server 2016
authenticates remote users and computers to the
Windows domain and its corporate network
resources?
A. Active Directory
B. Group Policy
C. Direct Access
D. RAS (Remote Access Service) -
ANSWER -- C. DirectAccess
- DirectAccess authenticates users to the
Windows domain.
Which remote access protocol is used over an
Ethernet network?
A. PPPoE
B. RAS
C. PPP
D. SLIP - ANSWER -- A. PPPoE
- When PPP Is used over an Ethernet network
(no matter that connection type), is known as
PPPoE (PPP over Ethernet).

Questions and Answers Graded A+

Which encryption protocol does GRE use to increase the security of its transmissions? A. SSL B. SFTP C. IPsec D. SSH - ANSWER -- C. IPsec

  • GRE (Generic Routing Encapsulation), developed by Cisco, is a Layer 3 protocol used to transmit PPP, IP, and other kinds of messages through a tunnel. Like L2TP, GRE is used in conjunction with IPsec to increase the security of the transmission. Which tunneling protocol is a component of the IPsec protocol suite? A. L2TP B. OpenVPN C. PPTP D. IKEv2 - ANSWER -- D. IKEv
  • IKE (internet exchange key), negotiates the exchange of keys, including authentication of the keys; the current version is IKEv2. Which encryption benchmark ensures data is not modified after its transmitted and before its received? A. Confidentially B. Integrity C. Availability D. Symmetric - ANSWER -- B. Integrity
  • Integrity, Data is not modified in the time after the sender transmits it and before the receiver picks it up. Which remote file access protocol is an extension of SSH? A. SFTP B. TFTP

C. FTPS

D. HTTPS - ANSWER -- A. SFTP

  • SFTP (Secure FTP), a file-transfer version of SSH that includes encryption and authentication and is sometimes inaccurately called FTP over SSH or SSH FTP. Note that SFTP is an extension of the SSH protocol, not the FTP. List two advantages to using virtualization on a network. - ANSWER -- Efficient use of resources, physical clients or servers devoted to one function typically use only a fraction of their capacity.
  • Cost and energy savings, organizations save money by purchasing fewer and less expensive physical machines.
  • Fault and threat isolation, in a virtual environment, the isolation of each guest system means that a problem with one guest does not affect the others.
  • Simple backups, recovery, and replication, virtualization software enables network administrators to save backup images of a guest machine. How does a vNIC get a MAC address? - ANSWER -- Every VM has its own virtual network adapter, or vNIC (virtual NIC), that can connect the VM to other machines, both virtual and physical. Upon creation, each vNIC is automatically assigned a MAC address. Which Transport layer protocol does PPTP use?
  • ANSWER -- PPTP (point-to-point tunneling protocol), is an older, Layer 2 protocol developed by Microsoft that encapsulates VPN data frames. It uses TCP segments at the Transport layer. Which secured tunneling protocol might be able to cross firewalls where IPsec is blocked? -
