Question

1. In terms of physical-level, security for stand-alone PC: 1.1 It is more secure than networked one 1.2 Has the same level of security as networked PC; 1.3 Depends on the protocols used in the network:; 1-4 Depends on the size of the PC memory. 2 What is NOT true: 2.1 Traditional Wide Area Networks (WAN) has more nodes than Local Area Networks (LAN); 2.2 Traditional LANs are faster than WANs; 2.3 Traditional WANs are faster than LANs; 2.4 Traditional LANs and WANs use different communication technologies 3 The client-server communication based on: 3.1 The request-reply model; 3.2 Ability of the network to send data with very high speed; 3.3 Ability of the client machine to display graphical information; 3.4 Ability of the client machine to save a lot of data on its hard drive. 4. In the OSI Communication model Horizontal communication is the communication between: 4.1 Similar layers in both of communication parties; 4.2 Two layers on the same network node; 4.3. Any communication between client and server 4.4 Any communication between two clients. 5. During the communication between two parties the information always goes through the process called: 5.1 Compilation-decompilation; 5.2 Calculation-decalculation; 5.3 Compression- decompression; 5.4 Encapsulation-decapsulation. 6. Which protocol provides connection-oriented communication? 6.1 UDP; 6.2 IP 6.3.ICMP; 6.4, TCP 7. Which protocol intended to provide better reliability? 7.1 Connection-oriented; 7.2 Connectionless; 7.3 Both have the same level of reliability 7.4 Depends on the type of the data transmitted; 8. If a message is too long to be sent through the Internet as is, it will be: 8.1 Truncated; 8.2. Fragmented; 8.3 Rejected; 8.4 Sent back to the source node;

Explanation / Answer

1.

Ans:

1.1 It is more secure than networked one

Reason:  

If it is attached to a network attacks are possible from various ways like virus, hacker etc.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

2.

Ans:

2.1 Traditional WAN has more nodes than local area networks

Reason:  

WAN is world wide spreaded, so more computers are available.

LAN is with in the company or building. So it less size

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

3. Ans:

3.1 The request-reply model

Reason:

If client needs information, it send a request to the server.

If the server has the required information, it send reply back to the client.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

4.

Ans:

4.1 Similar layers in both of communication parties

Reason:

It is the communication between the peer entities through a virtual connection in different

systems to complete a service request.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

5.

Ans:

5.3 Compression-Decompression

Reason:

Compression transforms original data to another form. Decompression recovers the original data from compressed data  

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

6.

Ans:

6.4 TCP

Reason:

It requires a session establishment before the data transmission; so it is called connection-oriented.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

7.

Ans:

7.1 Connection-oriented

Reason:

Connection-oriented protocols guarantees that data will be received in the proper sequence

at the receiver side. That is,it provides assurance of the delivery of data to the intended recipient(s).

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

8.

Ans:

8.2 Fragmented

Reason:

Fragmentation breaks message into smaller pieces called fragments (Packets).

They can easily pass through a the communication medium than the original lengthy message.

These fragments can be reassembled at the receiver side.
