Subject: 70-058 Brain Dump

Brain dump:

I pass 70-058 yesterday (May 5). I used the Microsoft books, the MCSE Test Prep from Que, and the brain dump site. Thanks to all who contribute to this great site.

I first read the Que book, and then answered all of the sample questions (approx. 900). That allowed me to identify my weak areas, and I went back to review them. [Note: there are probably 10 - 15 questions in the Que book that have the wrong answer. But

Then I bought the Microsoft set, and found that it covered some things that weren't in the Que book.

Then I redid the 900 questions in the Que book 2 or 3 times, until I could answer them all.

Then I found the brain dump site. Everyone's experience was so similar that I brushed up a little extra on the material they talked about.

Here is the majority of the test I took:

Susan's WAS WORKING, now is not. Others on the network are OK. What's the problem?

Ans. Loose connection on Susan's network adapter (remember, most problems are physical)

What's the use of using ODI/NDIS?

Ans: You can bind multiple transport protocools on one network adapter

You have two segments unsing TCP/IP and want to lower cross domain traffic. What do you install?

Ans: Install a router.

You have connected a token ring network (4Mbit/s) and an Ethernet network. Coping from token ring to ethernet for a 5MB file takes 30 seconds. Coping from ethernet to token ring takes 2minutes. Why?

Ans: different packet sizes

You can ping a server by it's IP address (numerical), but can't reach it by it's name. What is wrong?

Ans: everyone has said WINS, but that was not a choice on my test. I said that the server's name was not registered with the DNS (that was the best of the choices).

With which devices can you measure the bandwidth of a new installation side?

Ans: Network Analyzer (also known as protocol analyzer).

What do you use or peer to peer?

Ans: no NETBEUI, then IPX/SPX

Which protocol supports compression and error control?

Or what can you use for compression and data packet and tcp/ip ?

Ans: PPP

Which is a feature of Winnt 4.0 WS?

Ans: User level passwords

Which limitation are NDIS and ODI designed to overcome?

Ans: The need for proprietary network interface drivers for each network operating system and protocol.

What does the MAC driver do?

Ans: It Provides low-level access to network adapters by providing data transmittion support and some basic adapter management functions.

You install Ethernet card on client computer's network software, INITIALIZED properly but computer cannot communicate with others on network., any and all other computers can talk to serverà.Why?

.Ans: Transceiver on net adapter wrong.

Nwlink network INITIALIZATION of client is OK, client can't get to server., other computers can. Why?

Ans: net adapter incorrect frame type.

Connect Netbeui on network segment to UNIX on NFS. What do you use?

Ans:Gateway

Connect win95 and MSDOS comupters to see data. What protocol to use?

Ans:Netbeui

How do you view NETBIOS names on a network?

Ans. WINS

want to connect Ethernet rings. Use Nwlink and Netbeui. Want to filter data and cut down network traffic. What do you use?

Ans. Bridge.

what would you include to manage your network?

Ans. SNMP

you need to cable an office, but you can't rip anything up and it must be cheap?

Ans. Bus net and coaxial

what's the purpose of NDIS?

Ans. Allow network cards to be independent of the protocols.

You find that the network is getting slower and when using the performance monitor you see that: CPU time 4% page/sec 2% disk 44%. What to do.

Ans. Disk striping with parity.

You install a network card and your system no longer boots

ans. SCSI/Network card IRQ conflict

what wan link can you use at ANY speed.

Ans. Frame relay

what WAN link will give you a reliable switched connection.

Ans. X.25

You have a 200 node LAN using TCP/IP and NETBEUI. You want to segment it into 3 subnets and be able to use both protocols. What connectivity device would you use?

Ans. Brouter.

you have a mixed DOS, UNIX, NT network. New NT server, UNIX boxes only can't see it. What is problem?

Ans. Protocol mismatch

Scenario: you have a large network 750 computers including NT server and Win95 clients. You want to implement security on network resources while minimizing administration. Which method should you implement?

Ans. Centralized user account with resource-level security

which of the following can provide a WAN link with digital voice, dat and video?

Ans. ATM

Which is used for at least 100Mbps?

Ans. ATM

Definition of client/server?

Ans. client makes requests, server does back end processing

You have to set up 2 computers to connect to the network. All components IRQ'S are set ot deault value. You have to set up both NIC with the following: MAC address = 0114AS558957; IRQ = 5; I/O Base Memory = 300. The computers are not able to communicate o

Ans. RESET MAC address to factroy settings

On what layer do SMBs reside?

Ans: application

A client's computer connected to an IPX network, Netware initialization OK but still cannot talk to the network. What is the problem?

Ans.wrong frame type

you have a network with the data on the servers, in a separate room, NTFS and a lot more good things. Required: you have to ensure hardware reliability with 2 hours downtime acceptable, assure data protection, fault toleranc. Optional: protection against

Ans. meets everything

Network performance reports a large number of broadcast storms. The network uses NETBEUI. What is the best thing to do.

Ans. Use router and TCP/IP instead of Netbeui.

You have a 200 node LAN using TCP/IP and you want to segment it into 3 subnets. What should you use?

Ans. router

What device shold be used to connect an Etherner LAN to an IBM mainframe?
