As per "Boo Boo Bear," I believe there are two versions of this test:
one that can be passed in the allotted amount of time and one that
cannot. As described by "Boo Boo Bear," I got the easier test.
One question I did not see on the brain dumps:
You are forced to rely on a rather unorthodox illustration. There is no
real description in the question.
London site, 45 users. At top of circle representing London network is
"Server/Domain Member.
Mexico site, about 150 users. At top of circle representing Mexico
network is "DHCP/Wins/PDC."
There is a 56K frame relay connection between the two networks.
London has been complaining about various performance problems (slow
logons, slow boot, etc.). Requirement: increase network performance to
that of Mexico network. Optional: decrease logon validation traffic
over 56K link. Decrease DHCP traffic over 56K link. Decrease Wins
traffic over 56K link.
The proposal is a follows: make London server DHCP server on its own.
Also make it a Proxy server. Route Netbios traffic between the two
networks.
I did not see how the proposal could possibly increase London network
performance to that of Mexico without making the London server a BDC
(for logons and browser functions) so I answered "d. does not meet the
requirement." I now think I was wrong and should have put "meets the
requirement and one optional (decreased DHCP traffic across 56K link)."
I would appreciate if someone could clean up some of the details I might
have missed on this question (details from the diagram, details in the
optional results and the proposal). This question looked very different
from anything I have seen during my long preparation for this test so I
suspect it is new material. It was very time consuming to answer
(desired result).
Yancy rules, but did not appreciate the Netware hacker tips on his
site. Thanks to all.
