Explain the function of a HUB in a network.
A HUB functions as a central connection point for devices in a network, broadcasting data to all connected devices.
A HUB is a software application used for managing network configurations.
A HUB functions as a device that enhances network speed by reducing latency.
A HUB acts as a security firewall preventing unauthorized access to the network.
What is the primary difference between a Hub and a Switch?
A hub and a switch both are same
A hub forwards data based on IP addresses, while a switch forwards data based on MAC addresses.
A hub forwards data packets between different networks based on IP addresses, while a switch forwards data based on MAC addresses.
A hub broadcasts data to all devices on the network, while a switch forwards data only to the intended recipient.

Local Area Network, Metropolitan Area Network, Wide Access Network, Personal Area Network
Local Access Network, Metropolitan Area Network, Wide Area Network, Personal Area Network
Local Area Network, Metropolitan Area Network, Wide Area Network, Personal Area Network
Localized Area Network, Metropolitan Area Network, Wireless Area Network, Personal Area Network

Explain the concept of Internet and Intranet with examples.
Internet is a global network of interconnected computers, while Intranet is a private network within an organization.
Internet is a private network within an organization.
Intranet is a global network of interconnected computers.
Internet is a network limited to a single country.
What are the advantages of using a Router in a network?
Routers facilitate communication between different networks, enable efficient data routing, enhance network security, and support Quality of Service (QoS).
Routers limit the number of devices connected to the network
Routers slow down network speed
Routers increase network vulnerability
Describe the characteristics of a LAN network.
A LAN network is a network that connects computers and devices within a global area
LAN networks have slow data transfer rates and high latency
LAN networks are publicly owned and accessible to anyone
A LAN network is a network that connects computers and devices within a limited area such as a home, school, or office building. It has high data transfer rates, low latency, and is privately owned. LAN networks are usually connected using Ethernet cables or Wi-Fi.
What are the key features of a MAN network?
High-speed connections, larger geographic coverage than LANs but smaller than WANs, often use fiber optics, can be owned by a single organization or shared among multiple organizations.
Low-speed connections, smaller geographic coverage than LANs, often use satellite communication
High-speed connections, larger geographic coverage than WANs, often use copper cables
Can only be owned by a single organization, limited to a small geographic area, often use wireless technology
How does a PAN network differ from a WAN network?
A PAN network is more expensive than a WAN network.
A PAN network is wireless, while a WAN network is wired.
A PAN network has slower speeds compared to a WAN network.
A PAN network is for a small area, while a WAN network is for a large geographical area.
Which of the following pairs represent the two main types of transmission modes in networking?
Fiber optic and twisted cable
Infrared and Broadcast radio
Wired and wireless
Bluetooth and coaxial
How can social media platforms impact networking?
Social media platforms only create barriers for networking
Social media platforms have no impact on networking
Social media platforms only mantain the quality of networking interactions
Social media platforms can impact networking by providing a digital space for individuals to connect, share information, and build relationships with others.
What are the security concerns related to using social media in a network?
Using social media does not pose any risks to personal data
Data privacy, phishing attacks, Virus distribution, account hijacking, exposure of personal information, identify theft, scam
Social media platforms are immune to phishing attacks and malware distribution
Social media is completely secure and has no security concerns
