8. You have been put in charge of connecting two company networks that were previously
separated. You need to connect a 100BaseTx Ethernet network with an older token ring
network. Most traffic will be localized within each network, with only a little traffic crossing
between networks. Both networks are using the TCP/IP protocol suite. Which connectivity
device would be the best choice in this situation?

⚪ Bridge

⚪ Router

⚪ Gateway

⚪ Repeater

⚪ Switch

⚪ Hub

9. You want to prevent collisions on your network by creating separate collision

domains and defining virtual LANs. Which of the following devices should you
choose?

⚪ Router

⚪ Active hub

⚪ Switch

⚪ Bridge

10. You manage a small LAN for a branch office. The branch office has six file servers. You
want to use full-duplex Ethernet and offer guaranteed bandwidth to each server. How should
you design the network?

⚪ Divide the network using a bridge. Place the six servers on one side of the bridge, with all
client devices on the other side.

⚪ Connect all network devices to a switch. On one switch port, connect a hub. Connect all
six servers to this hub.

⚪ Divide the network using a router. Place the six servers on one side of the router, with all
client devices on the other side.

⚪ Connect all network devices to a switch. Connect each server to its own switch port.

11. You have a small network with two switches, SwitchA and SwitchB. Each switch has three
client computers connected. WrkA 1, WrkA 2, and WrkA 3 are connected to SwitchA using

4/14/2019 CCNA Practice Quiz: 200-120 Quiz 1
client computers connected. WrkA_1, WrkA_2, and WrkA_3 are connected to SwitchA using
their own subnet, while WrkB_4, WrkB_5, and WrkB_6 are connected to SwitchB using a
different subnet. You need to connect SwitchA and SwitchB so that workstations connected to
SwitchA can communicate with workstations connected to SwitchB. Which should you do?

⚪ Connect SwitchA and SwitchB to a router using a straight-through cable on each side.

⚪ Connect SwitchA and SwitchB with a crossover cable.

⚪ Connect SwitchA and SwitchB with a straight-through cable.

⚪ Connect SwitchA and SwitchB to a bridge using a crossover cable on each side.

⚪ Connect SwitchA and SwitchB with a bridge and a straight-through cable on each side.

12. The following items describe the functions performed at various OSI model layers.

Logical topology, hardware addresses, media access, framing

Logical device identification, path identification and selection
Flow control, reliable data transfer, windowing, segmentation, and sequencing
Convert data to 0s and 1s, bit signaling and synchronization

Which of the following correctly identifies the layers that perform each of the
functions listed here?

⚪ Data Link, Network, Transport, Physical

⚪ Network, Data Link, Transport, Physical

⚪ Network, Transport, Physical, Data Link

⚪ Physical, Transport, Network, Data Link

⚪ Transport, Network, Physical, Data Link

13. What role does ARP play in the routing process?

⚪ If a router does not know a destination device's MAC address, it sends an ARP broadcast
containing the IP address and requesting the MAC address.

⚪ If a router does not know a destination device's IP address, it sends an ARP broadcast
containing the MAC address and requesting the IP address.

⚪ If a router knows the MAC and IP address of a destination host, it sends an ARP request
to update the other routers' route tables.

⚪ ARP does not play any role in the routing process. Switches use ARP to map IP
addresses to MAC addresses in collision domains.
