I just took the TCP/IP for NT 4.0 exam, and passed with a 653 (a 570 is

required). As others have stated, it is now adaptive, so you will get from

25-35 questions (for those of you familiar with the Novell tests, this will

look strangely familiar). I received exactly 25 questions on the exam.

To study for the test, I used the latest Exam Cram book (version 4, I

believe). It was very helpful and pointed out areas to concentrate on. I

also browsed through several of the braindumps. Most importantly, I setup a

server and kept playing with the configurations. This test is the hardest

thus far that I have taken (NT 4 Workstation, NT 4 Server, NT 4 Server in

the Enterprise, Networking Essentials), so study hard. Experience will be

your best ally.

Here are the questions that I can remember. They are not exact, and I

probably combined some of them as well. Hopefully they will give you an

overview of what to expect. Good luck!

1. There is a router on your network that you suspect is dropping

packets. From your NT server, what performance monitor measure would you

use to determine if this is true? (This was my first question, and I

remember it because I freaked out. Where the heck did they pull this

from???)

Options Included:

IP (2 measures were listed for IP)

ICMP: Received Source Quench

ICMP: Sent Source Quench

ICMP: (can't remember)

2. You have a multihomed computer, and you want to find out how many

packets are being routed. What Perfmon measure would you use?

(I can't remember the options, but the answer shouldn't be

difficult to find)

3. You can PING an FTP server, but can't connect. What's the problem?

Don't have rights to the FTP server

4. An NT workstation and server can't communicate. An exhibit is given

with the network layout (several computers and routers). For the computers

in question, they lie on the same router segment and the IP Address, Subnet

Mask, and Default Gateway are given for each. Why can't they communicate?

You must figure out the subnets for each computer to get the

answer that one of the computers has an incorrect Default Gateway.

5. What must you do to monitor IP stats with Perfmon?

Install SNMP

6. You have a server connected to your ISP with an ISDN connection, and

Windows 95 clients on the network will be using the DUN connection to access

the Internet. How should you configure so the clients will be able to

access the Internet?

Options included:

Configure server Default Gateway with IP of

ISP router on company segment

Configure server Default Gateway with IP of

ISP router on Internet segment

Configure each 95 machine with a Default

Gateway IP of the ISP router

Configure each 95 machine with a Default

Gateway IP of the server

7. You are setting up a new server on your existing network. There are

NT 4.0, 95, and UNIX machines on separate subnets. The NT and 95 machines

move frequently between segments, but the UNIX machines stay put.

Desired results:

All NT and 95 machines get IP addresses

assigned dynamically

All NT and 95 machines can connect to NT

server resources via NetBIOS names

Optional Results:

All UNIX machines can ftp the server using

host name

All NT and 95 machines can telnet and ftp to

UNIX machines using host name

Send traps to NT server
