1 A company wants to configure a firewall to monitor all channels of communication and

allow only traffic that is part of a known connection. Which firewall configuration should
be deployed?

packet filtering
proxy
stateful packet inspection -------------
stateless packet inspection

2 Which three protocols are used for in-band management? (Choose three.)

FTP
HTTP
SNMP------
Telnet ---------
TFTP ----------
DHCP

3 A network administrator is assigning network permissions to new groups of users and

employing the principle of least privilege. Which two actions should the administrator
take? (Choose two.)

Provide users with only the access to resources required to do their jobs. -------------
Provide the minimum level of permissions required for users to do their jobs. ---------
Remove all permissions from the users and grant permissions as they are requested.
Allow users to decide how much permission they need to accomplish their job tasks.
Provide full access to the users and gradually remove privileges over time.

4 A hacker has gained access to sensitive network files. In analyzing the attack, it is found
that the hacker gained access over a wireless segment of the network. It is further
discovered that the only security measure in place on the wireless network is MAC
Address Filtering. How is it likely that the hacker gained access to the network?

The hacker used a software tool to crack the shared hexadecimal wireless key.
The hacker obtained the MAC address of a permitted host, and cloned it on his wireless
laptop NIC.--------------
The attacker mounted a denial of service attack to overwhelm the firewall before
penetrating the wireless LAN.
The hacker gained wireless access to the MAC address database and added his own
MAC address to the list of permitted addresses.

5 What are two potential problems with using tape media to back up server data? (Choose
two.)

Tape is not a cost-effective means of backing up data.

Data tapes are difficult to store offsite.
Data tapes are prone to failure and must be replaced often.------------
Tape drives require regular cleaning to maintain reliability. --------
Backup logs are not available with tape backup solutions.

6 Which three items are normally included when a log message is generated by a syslog
client and forwarded to a syslog server? (Choose three.)

date and time of message -------------

ID of sending device ------------
length of message
message ID -------------
checksum field
community ID

7 When is the use of out-of-band network management necessary?

when a server needs to be monitored across the network

when the management interface of a device is not reachable across the network
--------------
when enhanced monitoring features are required to gain an overall view of the entire
network
when it is desirable to use the information that is provided by SNMP

8 What is the term for the public network between the boundary router and the firewall?

"clean" LAN
intranet
DMZ ------------------
extranet

9 What is the advantage of using WPA to secure a wireless network?

It uses a 128-bit pre-shared hexadecimal key to prevent unauthorized wireless access.

It uses an advanced encryption key that is never transmitted between host and access
point. ----------------
It is supported on older wireless hardware, thus providing maximum compatibility with
enterprise equipment.
It requires the MAC address of a network device that is requesting wireless access to be
on a list of approved MAC addresses.

10 What AAA component assigns varying levels of rights to users of network resources?

auditing
accounting
authorization --------------
access control
authentication
acknowledgement

11 What network layer security protocol can secure any application layer protocol used
for communication?

HTTPS
IMAP
FTPS
IPSEC
TLS

12 What two measures help to verify that server backups have been reliably completed?
(Choose two.)

reviewing backup logs

performing trial backups
performing full backups only
replacing tape backup with hard disk-based backup
using an autoloader when backups require more than one tape

13 Before a technician upgrades a server, it is necessary to back up all data. Which type
of backup is necessary to ensure that all data is backed up?

daily
differential
full ---------------
incremental
partial

14 A server log includes this entry: User student accessed host server ABC using Telnet
yesterday for 10 minutes. What type of log entry is this?

authentication
authorization
accounting ---------------
accessing

15 Which two characteristics of network traffic are being monitored if a network

technician configures the company firewall to operate as a packet filter? (Choose two.)

applications
physical addresses
packet size
ports -------------
protocols -------------

16 Which benefit does SSH offer over Telnet when remotely managing a router?

encryption ---------------
TCP usage
authorization
connection using six VTY lines

17 Which three protocols describe methods that can be used to secure user data for
transmission across the internet? (Choose three.)

SMTP
IPSEC ------------
SSL -----------
HTTPS ---------
FTP
TFTP

18 Which AAA service reduces IT operating costs by providing detailed reporting and
monitoring of network user behavior, and also by keeping a record of every access
connection and device configuration change across the network?

authentication
accreditation
accounting ---------------
authorization

19 Which of the following does SNMP use to hold information collected about the
network?

network management station

network management database
management information base ---------------
database information agent

20 Which means of communication does an SNMP network agent use to provide a

network management station with important but unsolicited information?

query
broadcast
ICMP ping
trap ---------------
poll
