  1. The Windows ipconfig command displays the following information:


BC-5F-F4-7B-4B-7D
What term describes this, and what information can usually be gathered from it?
A. The IP address, the network location of the system
B. The MAC address, the network interface card’s manufacturer

  1. Chris has been asked to choose between implementing PEAP and LEAP for wireless
    authentication. What should he choose, and why?
    A. LEAP, because it fixes problems with TKIP, resulting in stronger security
    B. PEAP, because it implements CCMP for security
    C. LEAP, because it implements EAP-TLS for end-to-end session encryption
    D. PEAP, because it can provide a TLS tunnel that encapsulates EAP methods, protecting
    the entire session

  2. Ben is troubleshooting a network and discovers that the NAT router he is connected to

    What problem is he encountering?
    A. 1 92.168.x.x is a nonroutable network and will not be carried to the Internet.
    B. 1 92.168.1.40 is not a valid address because it is reserved by RFC 1918.
    C. Double NATing is not possible using the same IP range.
    D. The upstream system is unable to de-encapsulate his packets and he needs to use PAT
    instead.
