  8. A technician discovers that multiple switches require a major update. Which of the following policies should be followed?

    • Change management policy
    • Remote access policy
    • Acceptable use policy
    • Memorandum of understanding
  9. A technician is troubleshooting a point-to-point fiber-optic connection. The technician is at a remote site and has no connectivity to the main site. The technician confirms the switch and the send-and-receive light levels are within acceptable range. Both fiber SFPs are confirmed as working. Which of the following should the technician use to reveal the location of the fault?

    • OTDR
    • Light meter
    • Tone generator
    • CSU/DSU
  10. A Chief Information Officer (CIO) wants to move some IT services to a cloud service offering. However, the network administrator still wants to be able to control some parts of the cloud service’s networking components. Which of the following should be leveraged to complete this task?

    • IaaS
    • PaaS
    • SaaS
    • DaaS
  11. Client PCs are unable to receive addressing information from a newly configured interface on a router. Which of the following should be added to allow the clients to connect?

    • DHCP lease time
    • IP helper
    • TTL
    • DNS record type
  12. When enabling jumbo frames on a network device, which of the following parameters is being adjusted?

    • Speed
    • Duplex
    • MTU
    • TTL
  13. A technician logs onto a system using Telnet because SSH is unavailable. SSH is enabled on the target device, and access is allowed from all subnets. The technician discovers a critical step was missed. Which of the following would allow SSH to function properly?

    • Perform file hashing
    • Generate new keys
    • Update firmware
    • Change default credentials
  14. A network administrator wants to ensure sensitive data is not exfiltrated from the system electronically. Which of the following should be implemented?

    • DLP
    • AUP
    • NDA
    • SLA
  15. An office network consists of one two-port router connected to a 12-port switch. A four-port hub is also connected to the switch. On this particular network, which of the following is the number of collision domains that exist?

    • 3
    • 12
    • 13
    • 14
    • 15
  16. A network technician wants to remotely and securely access the desktop of a Linux workstation. The desktop is running remote control software without encryption. Which of the following should the technician use to secure the connection?

    • SSH in tunnel mode
    • RDP set to console connection
    • EAP-PEAP
    • SFTP
  17. Which of the following should current network performance be compared against to determine network anomalies?

    • Baseline
    • Traffic analysis
    • Packet capture
    • Logs
  18. A network administrator configures an email server to use secure protocols. When the upgrade is completed, which of the following ports on the firewall should be configured to allow for connectivity? (Choose three.)

    • TCP 25
    • TCP 110
    • TCP 143
    • TCP 389
    • TCP 587
    • TCP 993
    • TCP 995
  19. After a server outage, a technician discovers that a physically damaged fiber cable appears to be the problem. After replacing the cable, the server will still not connect to the network. Upon inspecting the cable at the server end, the technician discovers light can be seen through one of the two fiber strands. Which of the following should the technician do FIRST to reconnect the server to the network?

    • Reverse the fiber strands of the cable and reconnect them to the server
    • Use a TDR to test both strands of a new replacement cable prior to connecting it to the server
    • Replace the server’s single-mode fiber cable with multimode fiber
    • Move the fiber cable to different port on the switch where both strands function
  20. The backup server connects to a NAS device using block-level storage over Ethernet. The performance is very slow, however, and the network technician suspects the performance issues are network related. Which of the following should the technician do to improve performance?

    • Utilize UDP to eliminate packet overhead
    • Turn off MDIX settings on the NAS and server switchports
    • Enable jumbo frames on the NAS and server
    • Encapsulate the storage traffic in a GRE tunnel
