10.          PC A and PC B both have 10/100 NICs that support autonegotiation, and both connect to a LAN switch’s ports G1 and G2 using a UTP cable. Both switch ports are 10/100/1000 ports. Both PC NICs and all the switch ports support autonegotiation, but the user of PC B has chosen to both disable autonegotiation and to only use full duplex by making some configuration choices on the PC. Which of the following are true regarding the different device’s choices of whether to use half duplex or full duplex? (Choose two answers.)   a. PC A uses full duplex as the result of the autonegotiation process working. b. The switch port G1 uses half duplex as a result of the autonegotiation process working. c. Switch port G2 uses half duplex because autonegotiation fails, making the switch use the default duplex setting. d. Switch port G2 uses full duplex because autonegotiation works and detects that PC B only supports full duplex.

 

 

11.          Think about the various Ethernet standards for a given general category of cabling: UTP, multimode (MM) fiber, and single-mode (SM) fiber. Comparing the standards for one type of cable, for various new standards of various speeds over the years, think about the maximum cabling distances. Which of the following best describes the most consistent maximum cabling length across a cabling category? a. SM fiber typically supports a maximum cable length of 5 km across all SM standards at all speeds. b. MM fiber typically supports a maximum cable length of 550 meters across all MM standards at all speeds. c. UTP typically supports a maximum cable length of 100 meters across all UTP standards at all speeds. d. All maximum cable distances vary from speed to speed, even for a single category of cable.

 

 

12.          A network engineer is planning the cabling for a new Ethernet LAN at a new office building. She needs to create an engineering diagram as to which links use straight-through cable pinouts and which use crossover cable pinouts.

13.          PC A sits at a branch office Ethernet LAN. The LAN includes a router, which in turn connects through a WAN to the rest of a large enterprise network. The user at PC A opens a web

 

browser and types in a URL, which eventually causes PC A to send an Ethernet frame. This frame arrives at the router in that same branch office as part of its journey into the rest of the enterprise network. Which of the following statements is true about this Ethernet frame as it passes over the branch office Ethernet LAN? a. The Data field in the frame holds user data only.

b. The FCS field sits at the end of the Ethernet header. c. The Type field identifies the data as an IP packet. d. The Preamble field lists the length of the frame in bytes.
