Identify the correct diagram of a star network topology.
A central node connected to multiple peripheral nodes, with no direct connections between the peripherals.
All nodes connected in a closed loop, each node connected to two others.
Each node connected to every other node directly.
Nodes connected in a single line, one after another.
Two advantages of a star network topology are:
Easy to add new devices and easy to detect faults
All devices are directly connected to each other and uses less cable
Difficult to manage and high cost
Slower data transfer and complex setup
One disadvantage of a star network topology is:
If the central hub fails, the whole network is affected.
It is the most expensive topology to implement.
It is the slowest network topology.
It is difficult to add new devices.
The role of both the TCP and IP protocols in network communication is to:
TCP ensures reliable data transmission, while IP handles addressing and routing.
TCP handles addressing and routing, while IP ensures reliable data transmission.
Both TCP and IP are responsible for encrypting data.
TCP and IP are only used for wireless communication.
Which of the following are items of information found in a TCP/IP packet, apart from the Destination Address?
Source Address, Sequence Number, Checksum
MAC Address, File Size, Username
Printer Name, Font Type, Page Number
Monitor Resolution, Color Depth, Refresh Rate
DNS resolves addresses when a user attempts to visit a website by:
Translating domain names into IP addresses
Encrypting user data for secure transmission
Storing website content for faster access
Blocking access to malicious websites
