Subject: More questions on the failed NE

Alright had another question like this --

1. You have recently switched from NetBeui to TCP/IP and you want to increase the speed. What should you do? Dont remember the answers but one of them (the only one I could think of) was turn the bridge off on the brouter.

2. You have a token ring and and Ethernet Subnet you transfer a 5mb file and on the token ring it takes 2 minutes, on the ethernet it takes 30 sec why is this?

I put the answer about the frame type?? Dont know if this was right or wrong.

3. They said they had a dial up connection and they wanted to use error correction and compression and here was what they had (choose all that apply):

1. DLC
2. XNS
3. SLIP
4. PPP

I chose ppp since it does use compression.

3. What did the 802.3 specification include?

1. UTP
2. STP
3. COXIAL
4. (dont remember but it was something stupid)

4. You have 5 Windows 95 computers connected together, which protocol would be easiest to implement?

1. NFS
2. IPX
3. DLC

I put IPX, because they did not have NetBeuiand knew the NFS was for UNIX systems.

5. They wanted a fault tolerant system and it needed to be inexpensive, their answers were:

1. Raid Level 0 (speeds up the computer but does not provide fault tolerance)
2. Raid Level 5 (uses fault tolerance but did not think it was inexpensive answer)
3. Disk Duplexing (This was what I chose)
4. <cant remember>

6. Which of the below has error correction (choose all that apply)

1. Connection Oriented
2. Connectionless oriented

I chose both..
