Module 5 Networking Basics

What is the purpose of breaking a long message into smaller pieces?

• To define the size of the message
• To determine the language used
• To control the speed and timing of delivery
• To ensure reliable delivery

How do internet standards allow different types of devices to communicate with each other?

• By ensuring all devices use the same language
• By controlling the speed and timing of delivery
• By defining the size of the message
• By using a specific method of communication

What is the purpose of a header in a network message?

• To control the speed and timing of delivery
• To define the size of the message
• To determine the language used
• To identify the sender and receiver

What aspects of communication are defined by networking protocols?

• Message format
• Message size
• Timing
• All of the above

Why are internet standards important?

• They control the speed and timing of delivery
• They define the size of the message
• They determine the language used
• They ensure reliable communication

What is a similarity between human and computer communication protocols?

• They both use the same language and grammar
• They both use the same method of communication
• They both require confirmation or acknowledgment
• They both have strict rules for message size

Why are protocols important in successful communication?

• They control the speed and timing of delivery
• They define the size of the message
• They ensure the message is delivered and understood
• They determine the language used

What is the role of timing in network communication?

• To determine the speed at which bits are transmitted
• To identify the sender and receiver
• To control the size of the message
• To ensure reliable delivery

Which model is commonly referred to as the TCP/IP model?

• Internet model
• OSI model
• Reference model
• Application layer

Which layer of the OSI model is responsible for encoding signals for transmission?

• Physical layer
• Data link layer
• Transport layer
• Network layer
