TCP/IP

70-059

THIS TEST IS SERIOUS! The emphasis has shifted from sub-netting to RAS, PPTP with secure data transmission, gateways, DNS and the various utilities.

I have passed all of my core tests on NT and Net Essentials but am going to have to take this creature over. I found the questions more vague than my previous test but admittedly was not as familiar with the material. I study with this site and the Exam Cram and Exam Prep books. I am going to list some of thw questions from chilipeppers dump and list provide the new twists which I encountered.

One point before I do, There was 1 direct subnet question and subnetting was useful in a couple of the word problems. Know how to apply subnetting and resolution in the real world.

A FEW OF THE QUESTIONS:

    1. Had something close to this but w/o the Unix twist:

      2. 10.11.12.13 UNIX programmer # Programmers FTP server
      10.11.12.14 server
      10.11.12.15 UNIX developer #Developers FTP server
      10.11.12.20 developer # developer

      you try to ftp developer,you can connect. But you try ftp 10.11.12.20
      you fial to connect

      -- ip address of assigned to the FTP server is not 10.11.12.20 (answer B )

    2. This one was the same:

      3. Kevin uses a nt workstation on TCP/IP network,running the command ftp 144.123.23.34 ,
      he connect to nt server. when he use UNC path in windows nt explorer, he cannot connect
      ---the server is not set up to use a win server. ( do not,do not, do not select the
      workstaion is not set up to use DNS server).

    3. This one was the same:

      4. on her windows nt workstation computer, jackie can connect to a remote nt server by
      specifying the server's UNC path in windows nt explorer. However, when she tries to connect
      via ftp 199.34.23.100 .she cannot connect.

      -- the windows nt workstion computer is denied access to the FTP server's directories.

    4. Kevin and his server, the issue was not a UNIX server but filtering. I believe the outcomes were the same.

      5. FIRST QUESTION--Kevin want to install a Windows NT server with four NIC card

      on his TCP/IP network

      Required result:
      The server must rout TCP/IP packets

      Optional desired results:
      1) the server should dynamically updtae it routing tables when other router are added to or removed from the network.
      2)the server should provide IP addresses to every client computer on each subnet
      3)the server should send trap messages across the network to a UNIX server

      Proposed solution:
      1).install win server
      2). install dhcp serever create on scope for each subnet

      --- FIRST ANSWER is the proposed solution does not produce the required result


      Second question same above proposed solution
      1)enable IP forwarding on the server
      2). install win server

      ---- SECOND ANSWER IS "meet requirement but not the optionals"

      third question same above

      proposed solution
      1) enable IP forwarding on server
      2) enable RIP to IP
      3). install the DHCP server on th server. create on scope for each subnet

      -----THIRD ANSWER IS"MEET REQUIREMENTS AND ONLY 2 OPTIONALS.

      FORTH QUESTION

      PROPOSED SOLUTION
      1)ENABLE IP FORWARDING
      2) enable RIP to IP
      3) install the DHCP server.......
      4).install SNMP service on thr server. set up SNMP to forward trap messages to the
      UNIX server

    5. Had the question that goes with the following answer. The question was made to sound much more difficult than the answer appears.

      6. on the wins server configure ststic mapping for each UNIX computer (on the real test is on the wins server configure host name for each UNIX computer)

      -------the proposed solution produces the required results and only one of the optionsl desired results.

    6. Had a word problem that went something like this: You are adding a new RAS server with 2 modems to your network to allow 2 RAS clients to access the network while traveling. Your network has 40 workstations and 3 servers Inernet access is through a single router acting as a gateway.

 

Required Result: Your RAS clients must be able to access all machines on your networks via a secure data link, have internet access and no one else can get in.

SOLUTION: Create a pool of 2 IPs to be available to your clients, set the clients to allow server to select IP’s. Use microsoft data encryption, on the clients and the server, configure WINS on the clients

    1. This question was different.

      2. A diagram with two subnet computers. the subnet on the left has a server called container and A pc called WKST1 and the subnet on the right has one server called Market. Wkst1 can connect Market, but wkst1 can not connect Container serve on the same subnet

      ---the default gateway of Container is wrong
      The question that I had involved a similar diagram but the subnets were not trying to communicate across the router. There were 2 questions involving this diagram.

      One involved the subnets ( all of the machines are showing the same subnet) and the and the other was having to resolve the ip address to see which one should not be on the subnet

    2. What TCP/IP utility do use to check on the status of a port?
    1. Multiple questions on LMHOSTS usagae, not much on the syntax. 1 question concerned using a HOST file or a LMHOSTS.

GOOD LUCK AND GODSPEED!
