Question

Why does FDDI use counter-rotating rings?

To logically

To provide double the data traffic capacity

To allow traffic to pass in both directions

None of the above

QUESTION 2

Token Ring is what kind of protocol?

Session

Network

Transport

MAC

QUESTION 3

What is the name of the station on a Token Ring network that detects and corrects missing tokens and persistent tokens?

Ring Manager

Token Manager

Token Guard

Active Monitor

QUESTION 4

What is the most similar network technology to FDDI?

PPP

SLIP

Token Ring

Ethernet

QUESTION 5

Which of the following is required for a Single Attached Station to connect to a dual ring network?

Dual Attached Stations (DAS)

Single Attached Stations (SAS)

Dual Attached Concentrators (DAC)

Single Attached Concentrator (SAC)

QUESTION 6

What is the primary reason for beaconing?

Beaconing is used to identify stations on the network that are idle.

Beaconing is used to measure traffic rate through the ring.

Beaconing is a process where the sending station notifies the receiver that it will be sending data within a period of time.

Beaconing is a process used to detect and isolate breaks or faults in the ring.

To provide double the data traffic capacity

To allow traffic to pass in both directions

None of the above

Explanation / Answer

As per Chegg policy, I am answering only first 4 questions. Do upload remaining questions separately if you need the answer of them.

1.) FDDI uses counter-rotating rings to allow traffic to pass in both directions. Primary ring carries data in one direction while secondary carries data in other direction, but in general, it acts as a backup of primary ring. Hence, option c is correct.

2.) Token ring is MAC protocol which is completely replaced by Ethernet. Therefore, option d is correct.

3.) Active monitor in token ring detects and corrects missing and persistent tokens. Hence, option d is correct.

4.) FDDI is an advanced type of token ring. Hence, option c is correct.

Hope it helps, feels free to comment in case of any query.
