12.3.3 Gateways to Other Networks Quiz Answers. Networking Basics Module 12 quiz exam answers

1. A computer has to send a packet to a destination host in the same LAN. How will the packet be sent?

• The packet will be sent to the default gateway first, and then, depending on the response from the gateway, it may be sent to the destination host.
• The packet will be sent directly to the destination host.
• The packet will first be sent to the default gateway, and then from the default gateway it will be sent directly to the destination host.
• The packet will be sent only to the default gateway.

2. Typically, which network device would be used to perform NAT for a corporate environment?

• DHCP server
• host device
• router
• server
• switch

3. Which characteristic describes the default gateway of a host computer?

• the logical address of the router interface on the same network as the host computer
• the physical address of the switch interface connected to the host computer
• the physical address of the router interface on the same network as the host computer
• the logical address assigned to the switch interface connected to the router

4. What is the purpose of configuring a default gateway address on a host?

• to provide a permanent address to a computer
• to identify the network to which a computer is connected
• to identify the logical address of a networked computer and uniquely identify it to the rest of the network
• to identify the device that allows local network computers to communicate with devices on other networks

5. If the default gateway is configured incorrectly on a host, what is the impact on communications?

• The host is unable to communicate on the local network.
• The host is unable to communicate with hosts on remote networks.
• The host is unable to communicate with hosts on both the local and remote networks.
• The host cannot get an IP address from the DHCP server.

6. Which three IPv4 network addresses are private IP addresses? (Choose three.)

• 10.0.0.0
• 172.32.0.0
• 192.157.0.0
• 172.16.0.0
• 192.168.0.0
• 224.6.0.0

7. What is the purpose of NAT?

• allowing hosts configured with registered public IP addresses to access the internet
• translating private IP addresses to a public registered IP address
• routing private IP addresses over the public internet
• assigning a private IP address to a host for internet access

8. What is the primary advantage of using NAT?

• allows a large group of users to share one or more public IP addresses
• allows a large group of users to share the same private IP address within a LAN
• allows static mapping of public inside addresses to private outside addresses
• allows dynamic mapping of registered inside addresses to private outside addresses

9. Which three settings must be configured on a PC in order for it to communicate with devices located across the internet? (Choose three.)

• IP address
• subnet mask
• default gateway address
• DHCP server address
• hostname

10. The default configuration on a home wireless router provides which type of addresses to devices using DHCP?

• private IP addresses
• public registered IPv4 addresses
• public registered IPv6 addresses
• vendor-specific MAC addresses

11. Which type of intermediary device acts as a boundary between a home wireless network and the internet?

• Layer 2 switch
• access point
• DNS server
• wireless router
