What are two recommendations for an organization that is implementing network device naming standards? (Choose two.)

  • A device name should be more than 8 characters.
  • Device names should be in a consistent format.
  • A device name, especially for PCs, should include an IP address.
  • Each device should have a unique, meaningful name.
  • Each device name should include upper/lower case letters, numbers, and symbols.

Explanation: The network device naming convention in an organization should include a standard and consistent format that conveys meaningful information that is useful when locating devices on a network. Because of the fact that the IP address may change, an IP address on a PC is not commonly part of the name. The length of the name varies. The format of the device name is company-dependent.
