Hi all,

I just passed for Networking Essentials (70-058). From the 25 questions you can find 16 in my dump.Date January 5 1999.

I used the Transender tests and Cram Exam as my study material along with the info found here on " The Braindump Haven".

Thanks to everyone.

1. Your network consists of 10 computers, which run Microsoft Windows NT Workstation. Which kind of access control can you use to control access to files and directories on the network?

Choose all that apply.

A. Specify users and groups who have access to each shared resource.

B. Supply a password for each shared resource.

2. What is a characteristic of a client/server networks?

A. Any computer can make its resources available to any other computer on the network.

B. Dumb terminals are connected to a central host computer that performs all processing.

C. Any computer on the network can be both a client and a server.

D. Client computers access a server that performs back-end services.

3. What is a characteristic of connection-oriented communication?

A. It provides fast but unreliable delivery of datagrams.

B. It provides assurance of packet delivery.

C. It uses store-and-forward techniques to move datagrams between computers.

D. It uses message-oriented communication for processing e-mail.

4. Barbara's remote computer can be accessed via dial-up telephone lines. The computer is 5 years old and uses TCP/IP as its only transport protocol.  The data link communications protocol used by the computer cannot provide automatic IP addressing.

Which data link communications protocol is Barbara's computer using?

A. DLC

B. SLIP

C. PPP

5. You are designing a peer-to-peer network that consists of 5 Microsoft Windows 95 computers. Which protocol should you use?

A. DLC

B. NFS

C. NWLink IPX

D. XNS

6. Which WAN connection service can provide transmission speed that is faster than 100 Mbps?

A. ISDN basic rate interface

B. X.25

C. T1

D. ATM

7. You want your WAN to allow simultaneous transmission of voice, video, and data.   Which WAN connection service should you use?

A. 56-Kbps digital line

B. X.25

C. Frame relay

D. ATM

8. Situation:

You are designing a WAN that will connect 3 existing networks in Dallas, Denver, and New Orleans.

Required result:

· All of the computers on each of the 3 networks must be able to communicate with any other computer on the 3 networks.

· The WAN links must be capable of transmitting data at a minimum speed of 1 Mbps.

Optional desired results:

· You want to provide continued communications in the event of a single-link failure.

· You want to provide continued communications at a minimum speed of 1 Mbps in the event of a single-link failure.

Proposed solution:

Connect the 3 networks by using 2 T1 links, as shown in the accompanying Exhibit. Diagram of the proposed WAN.

Which results does the proposed solution produce?

A. The proposed solution produces the required results and produces both of the optional desired results.

B. The proposed solution produces the required results and produces only 1 of the optional desired results.

C. The proposed solution produces the required results but does not produce any of the optional desired results.

D. The proposed solution does not produce the required results.

9. User reports slow network response on your 500-computer Ethernet network. After investigation, you suspect that a network adapter is generating a continuous and meaningless transmission.  Which device can you use to identify the defective network adapter?

A. protocol analyzer

B. volt-ohmmeter

C. optical time domain reflectometer (OTDR)

D. time domain reflectometer (TDR)

10. Situation:

Network monitoring shows that network utilization has grown from 30 percent to 70 percent of maximum capacity in the past year. You will add 24 client computers and 1 server within 3 months. You want to reduce network utilization.

Required result:

· You must reduce network utilization by 50 percent.

Optional desired results:

· You want to allow for continued network growth.

· You want to maintain the new network utilization levels even after the planned additions to the network are implemented.

· You want to minimize costs for the project.

Proposed solution:

Change the maximum packet size on all of the computers from 1,514 bytes to 576 bytes. Replace all Category 3 UTP cable with Category 5 UTP cable. Increase TCP window size from 4,096 bytes to 16,384 bytes. Which results does the proposed solution produce?

A. The proposed solution produces the required result and produces all of the optional desired results.

B. Tthe proposed solution produces the required result and produces only 2 of the optional desired results.

C. The proposed solution produces the required result but does not produce any of the optional desired results.

D. The proposed solution does not produce the required result.

11. Which network topology provides guaranteed access for each computer on the network?

A. Star.

B. Bus.

C. Ring.

D. Linear.

12. Which 2 protocols use connection-oriented communication?

A. IPX

B. SPX

C. TCP

D. IP

E. UDP

13. What is a benefit of installing an application server to store and manage a database?

A. An application server centrally manages all user accounts.

B. An application server stores more data than a file-and-print server does.

C. An application server transfers only the results of database queries to client computers.

D. An application server transfers the entire database to client computers.

14. What can enable client computers to browse NetBIOS names on all subnets of the network?

A. WINS server.

B. DHCP server.

C. Router.

D. NetBIOS broadcast

15. You have 2 LANs, one using ethernet and other using token ring. Both the lans are using NetBeui and Nwlink, You want to connect both the LANs and still want to use the BOTH protocols.

A. Repeater

B. Bridge

C. Router

D. Gateway

16. You install an Ethernet network adapter in a client computer. The computer's network software is initialized successfully, but the computer is not able to communicate with other computers on the network. All other client computers on the network are able to communicate.   What is the most likely cause of the problem?

A. The transceiver setting of the network adapter is incorrect.

B. The IO port address on the network adapter is incorrect.

C. The cable segment is not properly terminated.

D. The packet-size setting is incorrect.
