4,003 Questions
32 host per 8 subnet.
What layers of osi communicates directly with user's application program?
which layer of the tcp/ip model processes requests from hosts to make sure a connection is made to the appropiate port?
What is the most popular network technology used on LANs?
Ethernet is the most popular network technology used on wired LANs. And IEEE 802 i.e Wi-fi is used for wireless LANs.

What attribute of a NIC would place it at the data link layer of the OSI model?
The MAC address would place it at the data link layer of the OSI model.
What is power Consumption of cisco 24 port switch?
That depends on the model of the switch, you can lookup the technical specs by doing a quick search at cisco.com.
The only problem you might run into, is statically assigning an ip address that is in the dhcp address pool. Make sure you know what the dhcp pool is, and assign static addresses outside of that range.
TCP implements guaranteed reliable delivery as a means of transporting data across a network.
What is the colour code for punching io box?
blue white,blue green white green,orange white orange brown white brown.
What network has a single communication channel that is shared by all the users on the?
That is called a bus topology.
Why switch is data link layer?
Data link layer refers to things that happen within a single network; that's what a switch does. Only a router (or equivalent device, which I would still consider a "router") is able to connect different networks.The different networks may use the same technology (for example, Ethernet and Ethernet), or different technologies (for example, Ethernet and Wi-Fi); a switch is only able to connect parts of a single network that use the same technology (often this will be Ethernet).
How can I connect to my 5 GHz network via Ethernet instead of my 2.4 GHz network?
Description:
I'm using a router that has dual band network capabilities and has 4 Ethernet ports on the back. I ran a cable from one of the ports to my PC and am currently using Ethernet, but it is a little slower than expected. The SSID for my 2.4 GHz network is different than the 5 GHz network, and my computer displays that it is connected to the 2.4 GHz network. Any ideas on how to get me connected to the 5 GHz network?
What features allows a host to be configured through Dhcp while still retaining the same IP address?
At the DHCP server, you would create an address reservation. To do so, you need to know the host's MAC address for its network interface.
Which type of network connection requires that two devices pair before the connection is?
A Bluetooth connection with a range of approximately 30 ft.
Routers and layer 3 switches work at Layer 3 of OSI model.
When using wireless router what are the possible IP addresses that can assigned to hosts?
An valid IP address range can be used on the wireless side of the the routers NAT.
Where can a LAN tester be bought?
LAN testers can be bought at various electronic stores such as Best Buy and Future Shop. Online retailers that carry LAN testers are those such as eBay and Amazon.
What precaution must you take when redeploying a switch to a new VTP domain in the network?
You must first delete all of its configuration. Higher revision number, for example, on a switch can result in a disaster when re-deployed in a VTP network. However, if all of the switch on the VTP network is set to transparent mode, there should be no problem.
How difficult is data replication?
Data replication is difficult without formal technological training and/or education. A lot of the terms used to describe data replication and the processes necessary to complete it are computer-specific and could appear to be in a completely different language to a person that does not know much about computers or technology.
What is the slash notation equivalent to the dotted decimal mask of 255.255.255.252?
The term "slash notation" refers to the way a processor reads an IP address. The "Watchguard" website gives a table showing the most common network masks and their equivalent in slash notation.
What type of cable is used to connect two user devices?
You would use a Cat5e Ethernet Wire....if no network switch is present then it may need to be a Reverse Network wire which is also known as a Crossover Wire. This means that the Orange and Green wire pairs are Reversed/Cossed Over on 1 end of the wire. Many modern devices will operate without requiring a crossover cable.
