An organization has a security requirement that all network connections can be traced back to a user. A network administrator needs to identify a solution to
implement on the wireless network. Which of the following is the best solution?
Answer: A
Explanation:
Enterprise authentication is a method of securing wireless networks that uses an external authentication server, such as RADIUS, to verify the identity of users and
devices. Enterprise authentication can provide user traceability by logging the network connections and activities of each authenticated user. This can help the
organization meet its security requirement and comply with any regulations or policies that mandate user accountability12.

NEW QUESTION 6
- (Topic 3)
A network technician is troubleshooting a port channel issue. When logging in to one of the switches, the technician sees the following information displayed:
Native VLAN mismatch detected on interface g0/1
Which of the following layers of the OSI model is most likely to be where the issue resides?
A. Layer 2
B. Layer 3
C. Layer 5
D. Layer 6
Answer: A
Explanation:
Layer 2 of the OSI model is the data link layer, which is responsible for transferring data between adjacent nodes on a network. It uses protocols such as Ethernet,
PPP, and HDLC to encapsulate data into frames and add MAC addresses for source and destination identification. It also uses protocols such as STP, LACP, and
CDP to manage the physical links and prevent loops, aggregate bandwidth, and discover neighboring devices12
A native VLAN mismatch is a common Layer 2 issue that occurs when two switches are connected by a trunk port, but have different native VLANs configured on
their interfaces. A native VLAN is the VLAN that is assigned to untagged frames on a trunk port. If the native VLANs do not match, the switches will drop the
untagged frames and generate an error message. This can cause connectivity problems and security risks on the network345
To resolve a native VLAN mismatch, the network technician should ensure that both switches have the same native VLAN configured on their trunk ports, or use a
different port mode such as access or general.

A Chief Information Officer wants to monitor network breaching in a passive, controlled manner. Which of the following would be best to implement?
A. Honeypot
B. Perimeter network
C. Intrusion prevention system
D. Port security
Answer: A
Explanation:
A honeypot is a decoy system that is designed to attract and trap hackers who attempt to breach the network. A honeypot mimics a real system or network, but
contains fake or non- sensitive data and applications. A honeypot can be used to monitor network breaching in a passive, controlled manner, as it allows the
network administrator to observe the hacker’s behavior, techniques, and tools without compromising the actual network or data. A honeypot can also help to divert
the hacker’s attention from the real targets and collect forensic evidence for further analysis or prosecution.

Answer: A
NEW QUESTION 9
- (Topic 3)
A company is moving to a new building designed with a guest waiting area that has existing network ports. Which of the following practices would BEST secure the
network?
Answer: B
Explanation:
One of the best practices to secure the network would be to disable unneeded switchports in the guest waiting area. This will prevent unauthorized users from
connecting to the network through these ports. It's important to identify which switchports are not in use and disable them, as this will prevent unauthorized access
to the network. Other practices such as ensuring all guests sign an NDA, lowering the radio strength to reduce Wi-Fi coverage in the waiting area and enabling
MAC filtering to block unknown hardware addresses are not as effective in securing the network as disabling unneeded switchports. Enforcing an NDA with guests
may not stop a malicious user from attempting to access the network, reducing the radio strength only limits the Wi-Fi coverage, and MAC filtering can be easily
bypassed by hackers.

During the troubleshooting of an E1 line, the point-to-point link on the core router was accidentally unplugged and left unconnected for several hours. However, the
network management team was not notified. Which of the following could have been configured to allow early detection and possible resolution of the issue?
A. Traps
B. MIB
C. OID
D. Baselines
Answer: A
Explanation:
Traps are unsolicited messages sent by network devices to a network management system (NMS) when an event or a change in status occurs. Traps can help
notify the network management team of any issues or problems on the network, such as a link failure or a device reboot. Traps can also trigger actions or alerts on
the NMS, such as sending an email or logging the event. MIB stands for Management Information Base and is a database of information that can be accessed and
managed by an NMS using SNMP (Simple Network Management Protocol). OID stands for Object Identifier and is a unique name that identifies a specific variable
in the MIB. Baselines are measurements of normal network performance and behavior that can be used for comparison and analysis. References: CompTIA
Network+ Certification Exam Objectives Version 7.0 (N10-007), Objective 2.5: Given a scenario, use remote access methods.

A network administrator is trying to create a subnet, which is the most efficient size possible, for 31 laptops. Which of the following network subnets would be best
in this situation?
A. 10.10.10.0/24
B. 10.10.10.0/25
C. 10.10.10.0/26
D. 10.10.10.0/27
Answer: D
Explanation:
A /27 subnet mask has 32 IP addresses, of which 30 are usable for hosts. This is the smallest subnet that can accommodate 31 laptops, as the other options have
either too few or too many IP addresses. A /27 subnet mask is equivalent to 255.255.255.224 in decimal notation, and has a wildcard mask of 0.0.0.31. The
network address is 10.10.10.0, and the broadcast address is 10.10.10.31. The usable host range is 10.10.10.1 to 10.10.10.30.

A user calls the help desk to report being unable to reach a file server. The technician logs in to the user's computer and verifies that pings fall to respond back
when trying to reach the file server. Which of the following would BEST help the technician verify whether the file server is reachable?
A. netstat
B. ipconfig
C. nslookup
D. traceroute
Answer: D
Explanation:
Traceroute is a network diagnostic tool that allows you to trace the path that network packets take from one device to another. By running traceroute to the file
server, the technician can see the sequence of devices and networks that the packets pass through on their way to the file server. This can help the technician to
determine if there is a problem with the network connection between the user's computer and the file server, or if the issue is with the file server itself.
NEW QUESTION 28
- (Topic 3)
Which of the following is the best action to take before sending a network router to be recycled as electronic waste?
Answer: C
Explanation:
Before disposing of a network router, it is important to back up and erase the configuration to prevent unauthorized access to sensitive data and network settings.
A network router may contain information such as passwords, IP addresses, firewall rules, VPN settings, and other network parameters that could be exploited by
hackers or malicious users. By backing up the configuration, you can preserve the network settings for future reference or reuse. By erasing the configuration, you
can wipe out the data and restore the router to its factory default state.

A technician monitors a switch interface and notices it is not forwarding frames on a trunked port. However, the cable and interfaces are in working order. Which of
the following is MOST likely the cause of the issue?
A. STP policy
B. Flow control
C. 802.1Q configuration
D. Frame size
Answer: C
Explanation:
802.1Q configuration is the most likely cause of the issue where a switch interface is not forwarding frames on a trunked port. 802.1Q is a standard that defines
how to create and manage virtual LANs (VLANs) on a switched network. VLANs are logical segments of a network that group devices based on criteria such as
function, department, or security level. VLANs can improve network performance, security, and manageability by reducing broadcast domains, isolating traffic, and
enforcing policies. A trunked port is a switch port that can carry traffic from multiple VLANs over a single physical link by adding a VLAN tag to each frame. A VLAN
tag is a 4-byte header that identifies the VLAN ID and priority of each frame. A trunked port requires 802.1Q configuration to specify which VLANs are allowed or
disallowed on the port, and which VLAN is the native or untagged VLAN. If the 802.1Q configuration is incorrect or mismatched between switches, frames may be
dropped or misrouted on the trunked port. References: [CompTIA Network+ Certification Exam Objectives], VLAN Trunking Protocol (VTP) Explained |

Which of the following records can be used to track the number of changes on a DNS zone?
A. SOA
B. SRV
C. PTR
D. NS
Answer: A
Explanation:
The DNS ‘start of authority’ (SOA) record stores important information about a domain or zone such as the email address of the administrator, when the domain
was last updated, and how long the server should wait between refreshes. All DNS zones need an SOA record in order to conform to IETF standards. SOA
records are also important for zone transfers.

While troubleshooting a network, a VoIP systems engineer discovers a significant inconsistency in the amount of time required for data to reach its destination and
return. Which of the following terms best describes this issue?
A. Bandwidth
B. Latency
C. Jitter
D. Throughput
Answer: C
Explanation:
Jitter is the variation in the delay of data packets over a network. It is caused by factors such as network congestion, routing changes, packet loss, or improper
queuing. Jitter affects the quality of VoIP calls because it can cause gaps, distortion, or out-of-order delivery of voice data. Jitter can be measured by the difference
between the expected and actual arrival times of packets2. To reduce jitter, VoIP systems use buffers to store and reorder packets before playing them back.
However, too much buffering can also increase latency, which is the total time it takes for data to travel from one point to another3.

Users are reporting performance issues when attempting to access the main fileshare server. Which of the following steps should a network administrator perform
next based on the network troubleshooting methodology?
Answer: B
Explanation:
According to the network troubleshooting methodology, the first step is to identify the problem and gather information about the current state of the network using
the network troubleshooting tools that are available1. The next step is to determine if anything has changed in the network configuration, environment, or usage
that could have caused or contributed to the performance issues1. This step helps to narrow down the possible causes and eliminate irrelevant factors. For
example, the network administrator could check if there were any recent updates, patches, or modifications to the fileshare server or the network devices that
connect to it. They could also check if there was an increase in network traffic or demand for the fileshare server resources2.
The other options are not correct because they are not the next steps in the network troubleshooting methodology. Implementing a fix to resolve the connectivity
issues (A) is premature without determining the root cause of the problem. Establishing a theory of probable cause © is a later step that requires testing and
verification. Documenting all findings, actions, and lessons learned (D) is the final step that should be done after resolving the problem and restoring normal
network operations1.

Which of the following BEST describes a north-south traffic flow?
Answer: A
Explanation:
A north-south traffic flow is a term used to describe the communication between a user or device outside the network and a server or service inside the network.
For example, a public internet user accessing a published web server is a north-south traffic flow. This type of traffic flow typically crosses the network perimeter
and requires security measures such as firewalls and VPNs. References: CompTIA Network+ N10-008 Certification Study Guide, page 16; The Official CompTIA
Network+ Student Guide (Exam N10-008), page 1- 9.
North-south traffic flow refers to the flow of traffic between the internal network of an organization and the external world. This type of traffic typically flows from the
internet to the organization's internal network, and back again.
Examples of north-south traffic flow include:
? A public internet user accessing a published web server
? A remote employee connecting to a VPN
? An email client sending email to an external server
? A customer connecting to an e-commerce website

Which of the following, in addition to a password, can be asked of a user for MFA?
A. PIN
B. Favorite color
C. Hard token
D. Mother's maiden name
Answer: A
Explanation:
MFA stands for Multi-Factor Authentication, which is a method of verifying the identity of a user by requiring two or more pieces of evidence that belong to different
categories: something the user knows, something the user has, or something the user is. A password is something the user knows, and it is usually combined with
another factor such as a PIN (Personal Identification Number) or a hard token (a physical device that generates a one- time code) that the user has. A favorite
color or a mother’s maiden name are not suitable for MFA, as they are also something the user knows and can be easily guessed or compromised.

following should the management team consult to determine the promised availability of the cloud provider?
A. Memorandum of understanding
B. Business continuity plan
C. Disaster recovery plan
D. Service-level agreement
Answer: D
Explanation:
A Service-level agreement (SLA) is a document that outlines the responsibilities of a cloud service provider and the customer. It typically includes the agreed-upon
availability of the cloud service provider, the expected uptime for the service, and the cost of any downtime or other service interruptions. Consulting the SLA is the
best way for the management team to determine the promised availability of the cloud provider. Reference: CompTIA Cloud+ Study Guide, 6th Edition, page 28.

Which of the following architectures would allow the network-forwarding elements to adapt to new business requirements with the least amount of operating effort?
A. Software-defined network
B. Spine and leaf
C. Three-tier
D. Backbone
Answer: A
Explanation:
Software-defined network (SDN) is a network architecture that allows the network- forwarding elements to be controlled by a centralized software application. This
enables the network to adapt to new business requirements with the least amount of operating effort, as the network administrator can configure and manage the
network from a single console, without having to manually configure each device individually. SDN also provides more flexibility, agility, and scalability for the
network, as it can dynamically adjust the network resources and policies based on the application needs and traffic conditions.

Which of the following would be used to adjust resources dynamically for a virtual web server under variable loads?
A. Elastic computing
B. Scalable networking
C. Hybrid deployment
D. Multitenant hosting
Answer: B
Explanation:
A technique used to adjust resources dynamically for a virtual web server under variable loads is called auto-scaling. Auto-scaling automatically increases or
decreases the number of instances of a virtual web server in response to changes in demand, ensuring that the right amount of resources are available to handle
incoming traffic. This can help to improve the availability and performance of a web application, as well as reduce costs by avoiding the need to provision and
maintain excess capacity.

A customer is hosting an internal database server. None of the users are able to connect to the server, even though it appears to be working properly. Which of the
following is the best way to verify traffic to and from the server?
A. Protocol analyzer
B. nmap
C. ipconfig
D. Speed test
Answer: A
Explanation:
A protocol analyzer is the best way to verify traffic to and from the server. A protocol analyzer, also known as a packet sniffer or network analyzer, is a tool that
captures and analyzes the network packets that are sent and received by a device. A protocol analyzer can show the source and destination IP addresses, ports,
protocols, and payload of each packet, as well as any errors or anomalies in the network communication. A protocol analyzer can help troubleshoot network
connectivity issues by identifying the root cause of the problem, such as misconfigured firewall rules, incorrect routing, or faulty network devices12.
To use a protocol analyzer to verify traffic to and from the server, the customer can follow these steps:
? Install a protocol analyzer tool on a device that is connected to the same network
as the server, such as Wireshark3 or Microsoft Network Monitor4.
? Select the network interface that is used to communicate with the server, and start capturing the network traffic.
? Filter the captured traffic by using the IP address or hostname of the server, or by using a specific port or protocol that is used by the database service.
? Analyze the filtered traffic and look for any signs of successful or failed connection attempts, such as TCP SYN, ACK, or RST packets, or ICMP messages.
? If there are no connection attempts to or from the server, then there may be a problem with the network configuration or device settings that prevent the traffic
from reaching the server.
? If there are connection attempts but they are rejected or dropped by the server, then there may be a problem with the server configuration or service settings that
prevent the traffic from being accepted by the server.
The other options are not the best ways to verify traffic to and from the server. nmap is a tool that can scan a network and discover hosts and services, but it
cannot capture and analyze the network packets in detail. ipconfig is a command that can display and configure the IP settings of a device, but it cannot monitor or
test the network communication with another device. Speed test is a tool that can measure the bandwidth and latency of a network connection, but it cannot
diagnose or troubleshoot specific network problems.

A network architect is developing documentation for an upcoming IPv4/IPv6 dual-stack implementation The architect wants to shorten the following IPv6 address:
ef82:0000:00O0:000O:0O00:1ab1:1234:1bc2. Which of the following is the MOST appropriate shortened version?
A. ef82:0:lab1:1234:1bc2
B. ef82:0:;1ab1:1234:1bc2
C. ef82:0:0:0:0:1ab1:1234:1bc2
D. ef82::1ab1:1234:1bc2
Answer: D
Explanation:
The most appropriate shortened version of the IPv6 address ef82:0000:00O0:000O:0O00:1ab1:1234:1bc2 is ef82::1ab1:1234:1bc2. IPv6 addresses are 128-bit
hexadecimal values that are divided into eight groups of 16 bits each, separated by colons. IPv6 addresses can be shortened by using two rules: omitting leading
zeros within each group, and replacing one or more consecutive groups of zeros with a double colon (::). Only one double colon can be used in an address.
Applying these rules to the given address results in ef82::1ab1:1234:1bc2. References: CompTIA Network+ N10-008 Certification Study Guide, page 114; The

Which of the following redundant devices creates broadcast storms when connected together on a high-availability network?
A. Switches
B. Routers
C. Access points
D. Servers
Answer: A
Explanation:
Switches are devices that forward data based on MAC addresses. They create separate collision domains for each port, which reduces the chance of collisions on
the network. However, if multiple switches are connected together without proper configuration, they can create broadcast storms, which are situations where
broadcast frames are endlessly forwarded between switches, consuming network bandwidth and resources. Broadcast storms can be prevented by using
protocols such as Spanning Tree Protocol (STP), which eliminates loops in the network topology. References: CompTIA Network+ N10-008 Certification Study
Guide, page 67; The Official CompTIA Network+ Student Guide (Exam N10-008), page 2-14.

In which of the following components do routing protocols belong in a software-defined network?
A. Infrastructure layer
B. Control layer
C. Application layer
D. Management plane
Answer: B
Explanation:
A software-defined network (SDN) is a network architecture that decouples the control plane from the data plane and centralizes the network intelligence in a
software controller. The control plane is the part of the network that makes decisions about how to route traffic, while the data plane is the part of the network that
forwards traffic based on the control plane’s instructions. The control layer is the layer in an SDN that contains the controller and the routing protocols that
communicate with the network devices. The control layer is responsible for managing and configuring the network devices and providing them with the necessary
information to forward traffic. References: https://www.comptia.org/training/books/network-n10-008-study-guide (page 378)

A network administrator is investigating a performance issue on a dual-link connection—VPN and MPLS—to a partner network. The MPLS is the primary path, and
the VPN is used as a backup. While communicating, the delay is measured at 18ms, which is higher than the 6ms expected when the MPLS link is operational but
lower than the 30ms expected tor the VPN connection. Which of the following will MOST likely point to the root cause of the Issue?
A. Checking the routing tables on both sides to ensure there is no asymmetric routing
B. Checking on the partner network for a missing route pointing to the VPN connection
C. Running iPerf on both sides to confirm the delay that Is measured is accurate
D. Checking for an incorrect VLAN assignment affecting the MPLS traffic
Answer: A
Explanation:
Asymmetric routing can occur when two routers have different paths for the same two hosts, resulting in increased latency and possible packet loss. According to
the CompTIA Network+ Study Manual, “If the path from the source to the destination is not the same in both directions, the packets will take different routes and
the latency can increase significantly.” To confirm this, the network administrator should check the routing tables on both sides of the connection and ensure that
the same path is used in both directions.

An IT intern moved the location of a WAP from one conference room to another. The WAP was unable to boot following the move. Which of the following should
be used to fix the issue?
A. Antenna
B. WLAN controller
C. Media converter
D. PoE injector
Answer: D
Explanation:
A PoE injector is a device that provides power over Ethernet (PoE) to a WAP or other network device that does not have a built-in power supply. A PoE injector
connects to a power outlet and an Ethernet cable, and sends both power and data to the WAP. If the WAP was moved to a location where there is no power outlet
or PoE switch, it would need
a PoE injector to boot up. References:
? Part 3 of the current page talks about PoE and PoE injectors as a way to power WAPs.
? [This article] explains how PoE injectors work and how to use them.

A network administrator is preparing new switches that will be deployed to support a network extension project. The lead network engineer has already provided
documentation to ensure the switches are set up properly Which of the following did the engineer most likely provide?
Answer: C
Explanation:
Baseline configurations are the standard settings and parameters that are applied to network devices, such as switches, routers, firewalls, etc., to ensure
consistent performance, security, and functionality across the network. Baseline configurations can include aspects such as IP addresses, VLANs, passwords,
protocols, access lists, firmware versions, etc. Baseline configurations are usually documented and updated regularly to reflect any changes or modifications made
to the network devices.
The lead network engineer most likely provided baseline configurations to the network administrator to ensure that the new switches are set up properly and in
accordance with the network design and policies. Baseline configurations can help to simplify the deployment process, reduce errors and inconsistencies, and
facilitate troubleshooting and maintenance.
The other options are not correct because they are not the most likely documentation that the lead network engineer provided to the network administrator. They
are:
? Physical network diagram. A physical network diagram is a graphical representation of the physical layout and connections of the network devices and
components, such as cables, ports, switches, routers, servers, etc. A physical network diagram can help to visualize the network topology, identify the locations
and distances of the devices, and plan for cabling and power requirements. However, a physical network diagram does not provide the specific settings and
parameters that need to be configured on the network devices, such as the switches.
? Site survey reports. A site survey report is a document that summarizes the findings and recommendations of a site survey, which is a process of assessing the
suitability and readiness of a location for installing and operating network devices and components. A site survey report can include aspects such as environmental
conditions, power and cooling availability, security and safety measures, interference and noise sources, signal coverage and quality, etc. A site survey report can
help to identify and resolve any potential issues or challenges that may affect the network performance and reliability. However, a site survey report does not
provide the specific settings and parameters that need to be configured on the network devices, such as the switches.
? Logical network diagram. A logical network diagram is a graphical representation of the logical structure and functionality of the network devices and
components, such as subnets, IP addresses, VLANs, protocols, routing, firewall rules, etc. A logical network diagram can help to understand the network design,
architecture, and policies, as well as the data flow and communication paths between the devices. However, a logical network diagram does not provide the
specific settings and parameters that need to be configured on the network devices, such as the switches.

Which of the following devices would be used to extend the range of a wireless network?
A. A repeater
B. A media converter
C. A router
D. A switch
Answer: A
Explanation:
A repeater is a device used to extend the range of a wireless network by receiving, amplifying, and retransmitting wireless signals. It is typically used to extend the
range of a wireless network in a large area, such as an office building or a campus. Repeaters can also be used to connect multiple wireless networks together,
allowing users to move seamlessly between networks. As stated in the CompTIA Network+ Study Manual, "a wireless repeater is used to extend the range of a
wireless network by repeating the signal from one access point to another."
A. User devices
B. Edge devices
C. Access switch
D. Core switch
Answer: D
Explanation:
A core switch is the most likely device causing the issue where users on each floor have stable connectivity, but do not have connectivity to other floors. A core
switch is a high-performance switch that connects multiple access switches in a network. An access switch is a switch that connects end devices, such as
computers and printers, to the network. A core switch acts as the backbone of the network, providing interconnection and routing between different subnets or
VLANs. If the core switch is malfunctioning or misconfigured, it can prevent communication between different segments of the network, resulting in intermittent
connectivity issues. References: [CompTIA Network+ Certification Exam Objectives], Core Switch vs Access Switch: What Are the Differences?
A. 802.11a
B. 802.11ac

Explanation:
* 802.11n is a wireless standard that supports data rates up to 600 Mbps and operates in both 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz frequency bands. 802.11n is backward
compatible with 802.11g, which operates only in 2.4 GHz band. 802.11n is the least expensive solution that can upgrade the wireless infrastructure for the
company, as it does not require replacing all the access points or wireless devices
A. Port security
B. Port tagging
C. Port mirroring
D. Media access control
Answer: C
Explanation:
Port mirroring is a technique that allows a network administrator to monitor the traffic on a specific port on a switch by sending a copy of the packets seen on that
port to another port where a monitoring device is connected1. Port mirroring can be used to analyze and debug data, diagnose errors, or perform security audits on
the network without affecting the normal operation of the switch
Answer: B
A. Subnet mask
B. IPv4 address
C. Default gateway
D. IPv6 address
Answer: C
Explanation:
The default gateway is the IP address of the router that connects the PC to other networks. The default gateway should be on the same subnet as the PC’s IPv4
address. However, in this case, the default gateway is 192.168.9.1, which is on a different subnet than the PC’s IPv4 address of 192.168.8.15. Therefore, the
default gateway configuration on the PC is incorrect and prevents the PC from reaching the file server on another subnet.

A technician is working on a ticket for a user in the human resources department who received a new PC that does not connect to the internet. All users in human
resources can access the
internet. The technician can ping the PC from the human resources router but not from the IT network. Which of the following is the most likely cause of the issue?
A. Duplicate IP address
B. Misconfigured RIP
C. Improper VLAN assignment
D. Incorrect default gateway
Answer: D
Explanation:
An incorrect default gateway can cause a PC to not connect to the internet, because the default gateway is the device that routes traffic from the local network to
other networks. If the PC has a wrong default gateway configured, it may not be able to reach the internet router or the IT network router. The technician can ping
the PC from the human resources router because they are on the same local network, but not from the IT network router because they are on different networks.
A duplicate IP address can cause a PC to not communicate with other devices on the same network, because the IP address is the unique identifier of a device on
a network. If two devices have the same IP address, they may cause IP conflicts and packet loss. However, a duplicate IP address would not prevent the
technician from pinging the PC from the human resources router, because they are on the same network.
A misconfigured RIP can cause a router to not learn or advertise routes to other networks, because RIP is a routing protocol that dynamically exchanges routing
information between routers. If a router has a wrong RIP configuration, it may not be able to reach or share routes with other routers. However, a misconfigured
RIP would not affect the PC’s connectivity to the internet, because the PC does not use RIP.
An improper VLAN assignment can cause a PC to not communicate with other devices on the same or different networks, because a VLAN is a logical
segmentation of a network that isolates traffic based on criteria such as function, security, or performance. If a PC is assigned to a wrong VLAN, it may not be able
to access the resources or services that it needs. However, an improper VLAN assignment would not prevent the technician from pinging the PC from the human
resources router, because they are on the same physical network.

A. Multifactor authentication
B. Single sign-on
C. RADIUS
D. VPN
Answer: A
Explanation:
Multifactor authentication is a security measure that requires users to provide multiple pieces of evidence before they can access a network resource. This could
include requiring users to enter a username, password, and a code sent to the user's mobile phone before they are allowed access. This ensures that the user is
who they say they are, reducing the risk of malicious actors gaining access to network resources as a result of a successful phishing campaign.
A. RIP
B. OSPF
C. BGP
D. EIGRP
Answer: B
Explanation:
OSPF stands for Open Shortest Path First and is a link-state routing protocol that uses Dijkstra’s algorithm to calculate the lowest cost between routers. OSPF
assigns a cost value to each link based on factors such as bandwidth, delay, or reliability, and builds a map of the network topology. OSPF then uses Dijkstra’s
algorithm to find the shortest path from each router to every other router in the network1. RIP stands for Routing Information Protocol and is a distance-vector
routing protocol that uses hop count as the metric to find the best path. BGP stands for Border Gateway Protocol and is a path-vector routing protocol that uses
attributes such as AS path, local preference, or origin to select the best route. EIGRP stands for Enhanced Interior Gateway Routing Protocol and is a hybrid
routing protocol that uses a composite metric based on bandwidth, delay, load, and reliability.

C. Change the address prefix scope in a DHCP server in order for the workstations to retrieve their new addresses.
D. Change the workstations' address prefix manually because an automated method does not exist.
Answer: B
Explanation:
SLAAC (Stateless Address Autoconfiguration) is a mechanism that enables each host on the network to auto-configure a unique IPv6 address without any device
keeping track of which address is assigned to which node12. SLAAC uses link-local addresses and the interface’s MAC address or a random number to generate
the host portion of the IPv6 address2. SLAAC also relies on Router Solicitation (RS) and Router Advertisement (RA) messages to obtain the network prefix and
other information from a router12. Therefore, to change an entire subnet of SLAAC-configured workstation addresses, the network engineer needs to change the
address prefix in a router and let the router advertise the new prefix with an ND (Neighbor Discovery) message. This way, the workstations will receive the new
prefix and update their IPv6 addresses accordingly3.

Answer: A
Explanation:
To determine if a client's network cable issues may be causing intermittent connectivity, the help desk technician can run the show interface command on the
switch.
This command allows the technician to view the status and statistics of the various interfaces on the switch, including the physical link status and the number of
transmitted and received packets. If the interface is experiencing a large number of errors or dropped packets, this could indicate a problem with the network cable
or with the connection between the client's device and the switch.
"Cisco routers and switches have a show interfaces IOS command that provides interface statistics/status information, including link state (up/down),
speed/duplex, send/receive traffic, cyclic redundancy checks (CRCs), and protocol packet and byte counts."
A. Honeynet
B. Data-at-rest encryption
C. Time-based authentication
D. Network segmentation
Answer: D
Explanation:
Network segmentation is the process of dividing a network into smaller subnets or segments, each with its own security policies and access controls. This can help
isolate OT devices from IT devices, guest networks, and other potential threats, as well as improve network performance and efficiency. Network segmentation is a
recommended security practice for OT environments, as it can limit the attack surface, contain the damage of a breach, and comply with regulatory standards.
https://sectrio.com/complete-guide-to-ot-network-segmentation/
Answer: AB
Explanation:
One possible cause of poor wireless performance is a bottleneck in the network, which means that other devices or applications are consuming too much
bandwidth or resources and limiting the speed of the wireless access point. To troubleshoot this issue, the engineer should ensure that there is no congestion or
interference from other devices on the network, such as wired clients, servers, routers, switches, or other wireless access points. The engineer can use tools such
as network analyzers, bandwidth monitors, or ping tests to check the network traffic and latency12.
Another possible cause of poor wireless performance is outdated firmware on the device, which may contain bugs or vulnerabilities that affect the functionality or
security of the wireless access point. To troubleshoot this issue, the engineer should install the latest firmware for the device from the manufacturer’s website or
support portal. The engineer should follow the instructions carefully and backup the configuration before updating the firmware. The engineer can also check the
release notes or changelog of the firmware to see if there are any improvements or fixes related to the wireless performance3 .
The other options are not relevant to troubleshooting poor wireless performance. Creating a new VLAN for the access point may help with network segmentation or
security, but it will not improve the speed of the wireless connection. Making sure the SSID is not longer than 16 characters may help with compatibility or
readability, but it will not affect the wireless performance. Configuring the AP in autonomous mode may give more control or flexibility to the engineer, but it will not
enhance the wireless speed. Installing a wireless LAN controller may help with managing multiple access points or deploying advanced features, but it will not
increase the wireless performance.
A. SFTP
B. Fibre Channel
C. iSCSI
D. FTP
Answer: B
Explanation:
A SAN also employs a series of protocols enabling software to communicate or prepare data for storage. The most common protocol is the Fibre Channel
Protocol (FCP), which maps SCSI commands over FC technology. The iSCSI SANs will employ an iSCSI protocol that maps SCSI commands over TCP/IP.
STP (Spanning Tree Protocol) is a protocol used to prevent loops in Ethernet networks, and it is not a medium for communication in a storage area network (SAN).
However, Fibre Channel is a protocol that is specifically designed for high-speed data transfer in SAN environments. It is a dedicated channel technology that
provides high throughput and low latency, making it ideal for SANs. Therefore, Fibre Channel would be the best protocol for the company to use for its SAN. SFTP
(Secure File Transfer Protocol), iSCSI (Internet Small Computer System Interface), and FTP (File Transfer Protocol) are protocols used for transferring files over a

A. Duplicate IP address
B. Duplicate SSID
C. Incorrect DNS
D. Incorrect subnet mask
Answer: C
Explanation:
DNS (Domain Name System) is a service that translates domain names into IP addresses. Corporate intranet websites are usually hosted on private IP addresses
that are not accessible from the public internet. Therefore, the user’s laptop needs to use the correct DNS server that can resolve the intranet domain names to
the private IP addresses. If the user changed the network parameters at the airport and did not revert them back, the laptop might be using a public DNS server
that does not have the records for the intranet websites. This would cause the user to access all internet websites but not corporate intranet websites.

A. Scope options
B. Reservation
C. Exclusion
D. Relay
E. Pool
Answer: A
Answer: D
Explanation:
The most appropriate method to improve the security of the environment would be to implement role-based access control (RBAC). With RBAC, users are granted
access to the network based on their role within the organization. This allows for more granular access control, as different roles may require different levels of
access. Additionally, this ensures that users only have access to the resources they need and no more. This helps to reduce the risk of unauthorized access or
misuse of the network. References and further information can be found in the CompTIA Network+ Study Manual, Chapter 8, Access Control.
RBAC is a method of restricting network access based on the roles of individual users within the organization. With RBAC, users are granted access only to the
resources they need to perform their specific job functions. This approach reduces the risk of unauthorized access, provides greater visibility into user activity, and
simplifies network management. Changing the default permissions to implicit deny may improve security, but it could also cause issues for legitimate users who
require access to specific resources. Configuring uniform ACLs and NAC for contractors is a step in the right direction, but it may not be enough to address the
overall lack of a formal process for granting network permissions. Deploying an RDP server to centralize access to the network is not a viable solution, as it would
not address the root cause of the security incidents.
Therefore, the most appropriate option is to implement role-based access control. Reference: CompTIA Network+ Study Guide, Fourth Edition, Chapter 7, section

A. Implement client roaming using an extended service deployment employing a wireless controller.
B. Remove omnidirectional antennas and adopt a directional bridge.
C. Ensure all APs of the warehouse support MIMO and Wi-Fi 4.
D. Verify that the level of EIRP power settings is set to the maximum permitted by regulations.
Answer: A
Explanation:
Client roaming refers to the ability of a wireless device to seamlessly connect to a different access point (AP) as the user moves around the facility. This can help
to improve network stability and reduce interruptions in mobile applications. An extended service deployment is a type of wireless network configuration that uses
multiple APs to cover a large area, such as a warehouse facility. By using a wireless controller to manage the APs, the network can be better optimized for client
roaming, which can improve network stability.
"Roaming With multiple WAPs in an ESS, clients will connect to whichever WAP has the strongest signal. As clients move through the space covered by the
broadcast area, they will change WAP connections seamlessly, a process called roaming."
Answer: C
Explanation:
The transceivers labeled 8Gbps are likely to be used with the Fibre Channel protocol. Fibre Channel is a high-speed networking technology that is primarily used
to connect storage devices to servers in storage area networks (SANs). It is capable of transmitting data at speeds of up to 8 Gbps (gigabits per second), and uses
specialized transceivers to transmit and receive data over fiber optic cables.
Coaxial over Ethernet (CoE) is a networking technology that uses coaxial cables to transmit data, and is not related to the transceivers in question. Internet Small
Computer Systems Interface (iSCSI) is a protocol that allows devices to communicate over a network using the SCSI protocol, and does not typically use
specialized transceivers. Gigabit interface converter (GBIC) is a type of transceiver used to transmit and receive data over fiber optic cables, but it is not capable of
transmitting data at 8 Gbps.
A. dig

The RFC1918 IP space is a set of private IP addresses that are not routable on the public Internet and can be used for internal networks. The RFC1918 IP space
consists of three ranges: 10.0.0.0/8, 172.16.0.0/12, and 192.168.0.0/161 Out of the four options, only A. 10.10.10.0/24 belongs to one of these ranges, specifically
the 10.0.0.0/8 range. Therefore, the technician should use this subnet for the LAN.

A. RPO
B. MTTR
C. FHRP
D. MTBF
Answer: B
Explanation:
MTTR is directly related to how quickly a system can be repaired if any major part fails3. The management team requires that the infrastructure be capable of
being repaired in less than 60 minutes, which means they have a low MTTR requirement.
MTTR stands for Mean Time To Repair and is a metric used to measure the average amount of time it takes to repair a failed component or system. In this case,
the requirement is for the infrastructure to be capable of being repaired in less than 60 minutes if any major part fails, which means the MTTR should be less than
60 minutes.
A. Data link
B. Network
C. Transport
D. Session
Answer: A
Explanation:
"The Data Link layer also determines how data is placed on the wire by using an access method. The wired access method, carrier-sense multiple access with

Answer: D
Explanation:
"Baselines play an integral part in network documentation because they let you monitor the network’s overall performance. In simple terms, a baseline is a
measure of performance that indicates how hard the network is working and where network resources are spent. The purpose of a baseline is to provide a basis of
comparison. For example, you can compare the network’s performance results taken in March to results taken in June, or from one year to the next. More
commonly, you would compare the baseline information at a time when the network is having a problem to information recorded when the network was operating
with greater efficiency. Such comparisons help you determine whether there has been a problem with the network, how significant that problem is, and even where
the problem lies."

A. Configuring the web server log to filter out 404 errors on image files
B. Updating firewall rules to block 202.180.155.1
C. Resyncing the network time server and monitoring logs for future anomalous behavior
D. Checking with the penetration testing team to see if the team ran any scans on January 14, 2021
Answer: A
Explanation:
This answer will help the organization to avoid expending resources on identifying non- relevant events, as the 404 errors on image files are not indicative of any
security threat or issue, but rather a misconfiguration or a broken link on the web server. The 404 errors on image files are also very frequent and repetitive, as
shown by the web server log, which can clutter the log and make it harder to spot any relevant events. By filtering out these errors, the analyst can focus on more
important events and reduce the noise in the log. The other answers are not as good as A, because they either do not address the problem of identifying non-
relevant events, or they are based on incorrect assumptions or information. For example:
? B. Updating firewall rules to block 202.180.155.1 is not a good answer, because the IP address 202.180.155.1 is not doing anything malicious or suspicious, but
rather requesting image files that do not exist on the web server. Blocking this IP address will not improve the security of the web server, but rather create
unnecessary firewall rules and possibly deny legitimate access to the web server.
? C. Resyncing the network time server and monitoring logs for future anomalous behavior is not a good answer, because there is no evidence that the network
time server is out of sync or causing any problems. The web server log shows that the entries are all within a few minutes of each other, which is normal and
expected. Resyncing the network time server will not help the analyst to identify non-relevant events, but rather waste time and resources on an unrelated task.
? D. Checking with the penetration testing team to see if the team ran any scans on January 14, 2021 is not a good answer, because the web server log does not
show any signs of a penetration test or a scan. The log shows only 404 errors on image files, which are not typical of a penetration test or a scan, which would
usually target different types of files, ports, or vulnerabilities. Checking with the penetration testing team will not help the analyst to identify non-relevant events, but
rather distract the analyst from the actual events and possibly create false alarms.

Answer: C
Answer: A
A. Flow control
B. Jumbo frames
C. Duplex
D. Port mirroring
Answer: A
Explanation:
Ethernet flow control is a mechanism for temporarily stopping the transmission of data on Ethernet family computer networks. The goal of this mechanism is to
avoid packet loss in the presence of network congestion.
Flow control is a mechanism that allows a device to regulate the amount of data it receives from another device, ensuring that the receiving device is not
overwhelmed with data. If the device experiencing packet loss is receiving large bursts of data at times when it is not able to process it quickly enough, configuring
flow control could help prevent packets from being lost.
"In theory, flow control can help with situations like a host that can’t keep up with the flow of traffic. It enables the host to send an Ethernet PAUSE frame, which
asks the switch to hold up for some amount of time so the host can catch its breath. If the switch can, it’ll buffer transmissions until the pause expires, and then
start sending again. If the host catches up early, it can send another PAUSE frame with a delay of zero to ask the switch to resume. In practice, flow control can
cause latency trouble for modern real-time applications such as VoIP, and the same needs are usually met by QoS"
On the host, the technician runs another command and receives the following:
Answer: C
A. set type=A
B. is -d company-mail.com
C. set domain=company.mail.com
D. set querytype=Mx
Answer: D
A. Scope options
B. Exclusion ranges
C. Lease time
D. Relay
Answer: A
Explanation:
To define the location where VoIP phones can download configuration files, the network administrator can use scope options within the Dynamic Host
Configuration Protocol (DHCP) service. Scope options are a set of values that can be configured within a DHCP scope, which defines a range of IP addresses that
can be leased to clients on a network. One of the scope options that can be configured is the option for the location of the configuration file server, which specifies
the URL or IP address of the server where the configuration files can be downloaded.

infrastructure is NFV (Network Function Virtualization). NFV is a technique that allows network functions, such as proxies, firewalls, routers, or load balancers, to
be implemented as software applications running on virtual machines or containers. NFV reduces the need for dedicated hardware devices and improves
scalability and flexibility of network
services. References: CompTIA Network+ N10-008 Certification Study Guide, page 440; The Official CompTIA Network+ Student Guide (Exam N10-008), page
16-11.
NFV can be used to virtualize a wide variety of network functions, including proxy servers. By virtualizing proxy servers, organizations can save physical space in
the data center and
improve the scalability and efficiency of their networks.
To virtualize a proxy server using NFV, an organization would need to deploy a virtualization platform, such as VMware ESXi or Microsoft Hyper-V. The
organization would then need to install a virtual proxy server appliance on the virtualization platform.
Once the virtual proxy server appliance is installed, it can be configured and used just like a physical proxy server.
NFV is a relatively new technology, but it is quickly gaining popularity as organizations look for ways to improve the efficiency and scalability of their networks.
A. MAC table
B. Neighbor Discovery Protocol
C. ARP table
D. IPConfig
E. ACL table
Answer: C
Explanation:
The ARP table is a database that is used by a device to map MAC addresses to their corresponding IP addresses. When a device sends a packet to another
device on the same network, it uses the MAC address of the destination device to deliver the packet. The ARP table allows the device to determine the IP address
of the destination device based on its MAC address.
A. Check to see if the end connections were wrapped in copper tape before terminating.
B. Use passthrough modular crimping plugs instead of traditional crimping plugs.
C. Connect the RX/TX wires to different pins.
D. Run a speed test on a device that can only achieve 100Mbps speeds.
Answer: A
Explanation:
Cat 8 keystones are shielded to prevent interference from external sources, but they also require proper grounding to avoid interference from within the cable.
Wrapping the end connections with copper tape before terminating them is one way to ensure a good ground connection and reduce interference. Using
passthrough modular crimping plugs, connecting the RX/TX wires to different pins, or running a speed test on a slow device are not relevant or effective steps to
troubleshoot the issue.

Explanation:
VLAN hopping is a type of attack that allows an attacker to access or manipulate traffic on a different VLAN than the one they are connected to. One way to
prevent VLAN hopping is to change the default VLAN on a switch. The default VLAN is the VLAN that is assigned to all ports on a switch by default, usually VLAN
1. If an attacker connects to an unused port on a switch that has not been configured with a specific VLAN, they can access or spoof traffic on the default VLAN.
By changing the default VLAN to an unused or isolated VLAN, the network administrator can prevent unauthorized access or interference with legitimate traffic on
other VLANs. References: https://www.comptia.org/training/books/network-n10-008-study-guide (page 308)

A. jumbo frames
B. Auto medium-dependent Interface
C. Interface crossover
D. Collision detection
Answer: A
Explanation:
One of the features that can be configured to ensure that GRE overhead does not affect payload is A. jumbo frames. Jumbo frames are Ethernet frames that have
a payload size larger than 1500 bytes, which is the standard maximum transmission unit (MTU) for Ethernet. By using jumbo frames, more data can be sent in
each packet, reducing the overhead ratio and improving efficiency.
Auto medium-dependent interface (MDI), interface crossover, and collision detection are features related to Ethernet physical layer connectivity, but they do not
affect GRE overhead or payload.
Answer: B
Explanation:
Cameras can be used to identify users after an action has occurred by recording their faces, clothing, or other distinctive features. Cameras are often used as a
deterrent and a forensic tool for security purposes. Access control vestibules, asset tags, and motion detectors are not effective in identifying users, but rather in
controlling access, tracking assets, and detecting movement.

Answer: B
Explanation:
A peer-to-peer network is a type of network in which each computer (or node) can communicate directly with any other node, without requiring a central server or
authority. Each node can act as both a client and a server, and can share its own resources, such as files, printers, or internet connection, with other nodes. A peer-
to-peer network allows users to directly access and exchange what is on or attached to their computers, with equal permissions and responsibilities
Answer: D
Explanation:
The logging level debugging is the highest level of logging, which means that the switch will log every possible event, including low-priority and verbose messages.
This can result in excessive amounts of data being sent to the syslog server, which can affect the performance and storage of the server. To fix the issue, the
technician should adjust the logging level to a lower value, such as informational, warning, or error, depending on the desired level of detail and severity. This will
reduce the amount of log data generated by the switch and only send the relevant and necessary messages to the syslog server.

A. Relay
B. Lease
C. Scope
D. Range
Answer: B
Answer: A
Explanation:
A router-on-a-stick is a configuration that allows a single router interface to route traffic between multiple VLANs on a network1. A router-on-a-stick requires sub-
interfaces to be configured on the router interface, one for each VLAN. Each sub-interface is assigned a VLAN ID and an IP address that belongs to the
corresponding VLAN subnet. The router interface is connected to a switch port that is configured as a trunk port, which allows traffic from multiple VLANs to pass
through. The router then performs inter-VLAN routing by forwarding packets between the sub-interfaces based on their destination IP addresses. Inter-VLAN
routing is a process that allows devices on different VLANs to communicate with each other. Inter-VLAN routing can be performed by a router-on-a-stick
configuration, as explained above, or by a multilayer switch that has routing capabilities. A multilayer switch does not require sub-interfaces to be configured for
inter-VLAN routing; instead, it uses switch virtual interfaces (SVIs) that are associated with each VLAN. An SVI is a logical interface that represents a VLAN on a
switch and has an IP address that belongs to the VLAN subnet. The switch then performs inter-VLAN routing by forwarding packets between the SVIs based on
their destination IP addresses.
VLAN trunking is a method that allows traffic from multiple VLANs to be carried over a single link between switches or routers. VLAN trunking requires the use of a
tagging protocol, such as 802.1Q, that adds a header to each frame that identifies its VLAN ID. VLAN trunking does not require sub-interfaces to be configured on
the switches or routers; instead, it uses trunk ports that are configured to allow or deny traffic from specific VLANs. The switches or routers then forward packets
between the trunk ports based on their VLAN IDs.
* 802.1Q is a standard that defines how VLAN tagging and trunking are performed on Ethernet networks.
* 802.1Q adds a 4-byte header to each frame that contains a 12-bit field for the VLAN ID and a 3-bit field for the priority level. 802.1Q does not require sub-
interfaces to be configured on the switches or routers; instead, it uses trunk ports that are configured to support 802.1Q tagging and untagging. The switches or
routers then forward packets between the trunk ports based on their VLAN IDs and priority levels.
A. PAN

A. Establish a theory.
B. Implement the solution.
C. Create a plan of action.
D. Verify functionality.
Answer: C
Explanation:
Creating a plan of action is the step of the troubleshooting methodology that would most likely include checking through each level of the OSI model after the
problem has been identified. According to the web search results, the troubleshooting methodology consists of the following steps: 12
? Define the problem: Identify the symptoms and scope of the problem, and gather relevant information from users, devices, and logs.
? Establish a theory: Based on the information collected, hypothesize one or more possible causes of the problem, and rank them in order of probability.
? Test the theory: Test the most probable cause first, and if it is not confirmed, eliminate it and test the next one. Repeat this process until the root cause is found
or a new theory is needed.
? Create a plan of action: Based on the confirmed cause, devise a solution that can resolve the problem with minimal impact and risk. The solution may involve
checking through each level of the OSI model to ensure that all layers are functioning properly and that there are no configuration errors, physical damages, or
logical inconsistencies34
? Implement the solution: Execute the plan of action, and monitor the results. If the problem is not solved, revert to the previous state and create a new plan of
action.
? Verify functionality: Confirm that the problem is fully resolved and that the network is restored to normal operation. Perform preventive measures if possible to
avoid recurrence of the problem.
? Document the findings: Record the problem description, the solution, and the outcome. Update any relevant documentation, such as network diagrams, policies,
or procedures.

A. Tailgating
B. Evil twin
C. On-path
D. Piggybacking
Answer: A
Explanation:
Tailgating is a type of physical security attack where an unauthorized person follows an authorized person into a restricted area without their consent or
knowledge. Tailgating can allow an attacker to bypass security measures and gain access to sensitive information or resources. In this scenario, the technician
experienced tailgating when the unknown individual walked in behind the technician without speaking. Piggybacking is similar to tailgating, but it involves the
consent or cooperation of the authorized person. Evil twin is a type of wireless network attack where an attacker sets up a rogue access point that mimics
a legitimate one. On-path is a type of network attack where an attacker intercepts and modifies traffic between two parties.

A. Mastered
B. Not Mastered
Answer: A
Explanation:
Answer: D
Explanation:
Wireless drivers can affect the performance and compatibility of your wireless connection5. If only a new line of laptops using the organization’s standard image
has experienced slow wireless speeds, it could be that their wireless drivers are outdated or incompatible with the network. Updating the device wireless drivers
could resolve this issue.
Wireless drivers play an important role in the performance of a wireless connection, as they control how the device interacts with the wireless network. If the
laptops in question are using an outdated version of the wireless driver, it could be causing the slow speeds. The network administrator should recommend
updating the device wireless drivers first to see if this resolves the issue.
A. Traffic shaping
B. Traffic policing
C. Traffic marking
D. Traffic classification
Answer: B
Explanation:
Traffic policing is a mechanism that monitors the traffic in any network and enforces a bandwidth limit by discarding packets that exceed a certain rate1. This can
reduce congestion and ensure fair allocation of bandwidth among different applications or users. However, discarding packets can also affect the performance and
quality of some applications, especially those that are sensitive to packet loss, such as voice or video. Traffic shaping is a congestion control mechanism that
delays packets that exceed a certain rate instead of discarding them1. This can smooth out traffic bursts and avoid packet loss, but it also introduces latency and
jitter. Traffic shaping can be beneficial for applications that can tolerate some delay but not packet loss, such as file transfers or streaming.
Traffic marking is a mechanism that assigns different priority levels to packets based on their type, source, destination, or other criteria2. This can help to
differentiate between different classes of service and apply different policies or treatments to them. However, traffic marking does not enforce bandwidth limits by
itself; it only provides information for other mechanisms to act upon.
Traffic classification is a process that identifies and categorizes packets based on their characteristics, such as protocol, port number, payload, or behavior. This
can help to distinguish between different types of traffic and apply appropriate policies or actions to them. However, traffic classification does not enforce
bandwidth limits by itself; it only provides input for other mechanisms to use.
D. Event logs
Answer: B
Explanation:
Audit logs are records of the actions performed by users or processes on a system or network device. They can provide information about who made what
changes, when, and why. Audit logs are essential for detecting and investigating security incidents, as well as for ensuring compliance with policies and
regulations. Audit logs can help the network security engineer to identify the source of the unauthorized configuration changes to the boundary firewall, as well as
the scope and impact of the changes.

A. 802.11ac
B. 802.11ax
C. 802.11g
D. 802.11n
Answer: B
Explanation:
802.11ax is the latest and most advanced wireless standard, providing higher speeds, lower latency, and more capacity than previous standards. It also supports
OFDMA, which allows multiple devices to share a channel and reduce congestion. The other options are older standards that have lower bandwidth, range, and
efficiency than 802.11ax. Therefore, 802.11ax is the best option for the coffee shop owner who wants to provide high speeds even when the network is congested.
Answer: D
Explanation:
The 10GBASE-T connection between the two buildings uses Cat 5e, which is not rated for a distance of 410ft (125m). According to the CompTIA Network+ Study
Manual, for 10GBASE-T connections, "Cat 5e is rated for up to 55m, Cat 6a is rated for 100m, and Cat 7 is rated for 150m." Therefore, the speed issue is likely
due to the fact that the connection type is not rated for the distance between the two buildings. To resolve the issue, the technician should consider using a Cat 6a
or Cat 7 cable to increase the distance the connection is rated for.
A. STP
B. 802. IQ
C. Duplex
D. LACP
Answer: D
Explanation:
LACP stands for Link Aggregation Control Protocol and is a protocol that allows multiple physical ports to be combined into a single logical port. This can increase
bandwidth, redundancy, and load balancing for a server. LACP is part of the IEEE 802.3ad standard for link aggregation. STP stands for Spanning Tree Protocol
and is a protocol that prevents loops in a network by blocking redundant links. 802.1Q is a standard for VLAN (Virtual Local Area Network) tagging, which allows
multiple logical networks to share the same physical infrastructure. Duplex is a mode of communication that determines how data is transmitted and received on a
link. Full duplex allows simultaneous transmission and reception, while half duplex allows only one direction at a time.

will provide a new, reliable connection that should allow for faster download speeds.
A. arp
B. route
C. netstat
D. tcpdump
E. hostname
F. ipconfig
Answer: EF
Explanation:
The hostname and ipconfig commands should be used to get the required information about the PC and share it with other users so they can connect to the
printer. The hostname command displays the name of the computer on a network. The ipconfig command displays the IP configuration of the computer, including
its IP address, subnet mask, default gateway, and DNS servers. These information are necessary for other users to locate and connect to the shared printer on the
network. For example, other users can use the UNC path \\hostname\printername or \\ipaddress\printername to access the shared printer. References: [CompTIA
Network+ Certification Exam Objectives], How to Share a Printer in Windows 10
Answer: B
Explanation:
Link aggregation is a technique that allows multiple network interfaces to act as a single logical interface, increasing the bandwidth and redundancy of the network
connection. Link aggregation can improve the performance of the network by balancing the traffic load across multiple links and providing failover in case one link
fails. Link aggregation is also known as port trunking, port channeling, or NIC teaming.

A. Mesh
B. Ad hoc
C. Point-to-point
D. Infrastructure
Answer: A
Explanation:
A mesh network is the best solution for creating a wireless field network to provide reliable service to public safety vehicles. A mesh network is a type of wireless
network that consists of multiple nodes that communicate with each other directly or through intermediate nodes, forming a web-like topology. A mesh network
does not rely on a central access point or router, but rather on the cooperation and coordination of the nodes themselves. A mesh network has several advantages
for public safety applications, such as12:
? High availability and resilience: A mesh network can automatically route around failures or congestion, ensuring that the network remains operational even if
some nodes are damaged or disconnected. A mesh network can also self-heal and self- configure, adapting to changes in the network topology or environment.
? Extended coverage and scalability: A mesh network can extend the wireless signal beyond the range of a single node, by using other nodes as relays or
repeaters. A mesh network can also accommodate more nodes and devices, by adding more links and paths between them.
? Low cost and easy deployment: A mesh network can reduce the cost and complexity of installing and maintaining a wireless infrastructure, by eliminating the
need for expensive cabling, towers, or antennas. A mesh network can also be deployed quickly and flexibly, by simply adding or removing nodes as needed.
A mesh network is especially suitable for public safety vehicles, because it can provide reliable wireless communication in challenging scenarios, such as12:
? Disaster response: A mesh network can be deployed rapidly in areas where the existing wireless infrastructure is damaged or unavailable, such as after an
earthquake, flood, or fire. A mesh network can also support emergency services, such as fire fighting, search and rescue, or medical assistance, by enabling data,
voice, and video transmission among the responders and command centers.
? Mobile surveillance: A mesh network can enable real-time monitoring and control of public safety vehicles, such as police cars, ambulances, or drones, by
providing high-bandwidth and low-latency wireless connectivity. A mesh network can also support video streaming, location tracking, remote sensing, or analytics
applications for public safety purposes.
? Event management: A mesh network can enhance the security and efficiency of large-scale events, such as concerts, festivals, or parades, by providing wireless
coverage and capacity for the event organizers and participants. A mesh network can also support crowd management, traffic control, or public announcement
applications for event management.
The other options are not the best solutions for creating a wireless field network to provide reliable service to public safety vehicles. An ad hoc network is a type of
wireless network that consists of devices that communicate with each other directly without any central coordination or infrastructure. An ad hoc network is simple
and flexible, but it has limited scalability and performance3. A point-to-point network is a type of wireless network that consists of two devices that communicate
with each other over a single link. A point-to- point network is fast and secure, but it has limited coverage and functionality. An infrastructure network is a type of
wireless network that consists of devices that communicate with each other through an access point or router. An infrastructure network is stable and robust, but it
has high cost and complexity.
