  1. Question 1

    Single answer

    Which of the following technologies can allow multiple networks to traverse a switch?

    • Option A:
      VLAN

      Correct
    • Option B:
      VRRP
      Correct
    • Option C:
      VPN
      Correct
    • Option D:
      DHCP
      Correct
    Show Answer & Explanation Hide Answer & Explanation

    Correct Answer: A

    Explanation

    The technology that allows multiple networks to traverse a switch is VLAN (Virtual Local Area
    Network) which is a logical grouping of devices on the same network regardless of their physical
    location12.
    Virtual Local Area Network (VLAN) technology can allow multiple networks to traverse a switch. A
    VLAN is a logical network created within a physical network that can separate traffic and allow
    multiple networks to coexist on the same physical network infrastructure. VRRP (Virtual Router
    Redundancy Protocol), VPN (Virtual Private Network), and DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration
    Protocol) do not allow multiple networks to traverse a switch.

  2. Question 2

    Multiple answers

    A user requested upgrades to a company-issued laptop to increase its performance while working
    with a large database stored on drive C. Which of the following tasks should a systems administrator
    complete to BEST meet this goal? (Select TWO).

    • Option A:
      Configure RAID 1.


      Correct
    • Option B:
      Install a hybrid drive.


      Correct
    • Option C:
      Upgrade to 1GB NIC.


      Correct
    • Option D:
      Increase the RAM.


      Correct
    • Option E:
      Migrate to a SSD.


      Correct
    • Option F:
      Upgrade the power supply.
      Correct
    Show Answer & Explanation Hide Answer & Explanation

    Correct Answer: D, E

    Explanation

    To increase the performance of a laptop working with a large database stored on drive C, a systems
    administrator should increase the RAM and migrate to an SSD. Increasing the RAM will help the
    laptop to better handle the large database, while migrating to an SSD will improve the speed at
    which the laptop can access the database. Configuring RAID 1, installing a hybrid drive, upgrading to
    a 1GB NIC, and upgrading the power supply will not directly improve the laptop's performance when
    working with a large database.

  3. Question 3

    Multiple answers

    Which of the following standards supports MIMO
    technology? 

    • Option A:
      802.11a
      Correct
    • Option B:
      802.11b
      Correct
    • Option C:
      802.11g
      Correct
    • Option D:
      802.11n
      Correct
    Show Answer & Explanation Hide Answer & Explanation

    Correct Answer: D

    Explanation

    The 802.11n wireless networking standard supports Multiple Input Multiple Output (MIMO)
    technology. MIMO technology uses multiple antennas on both the transmitting and receiving devices
    to improve wireless performance by increasing the amount of data that can be transmitted
    simultaneously. 802.11a, 802.11b, and 802.11g do not support MIMO technology.

  4. Question 4

    Single answer

    A user, who is attempting to give a presentation via a projector in a conference room,
    reports the projector has video but no audio. Which of the following will MOST likely
    resolve the issue? 

    • Option A:
      Changing the input on the projector to VGA 
      Correct
    • Option B:
      Changing the output on the PC to DVI 
      Correct
    • Option C:
      Modifying the projector's refresh rate 
      Correct
    • Option D:
      Utilizing an HDMI
      connection
      Correct
    Show Answer & Explanation Hide Answer & Explanation

    Correct Answer: D

    Explanation

    The issue of video but no audio on a projector in a conference room can be resolved by utilizing an
    HDMI connection between the PC and the projector. HDMI supports both video and audio signals
    and is commonly used to connect a PC to a projector for presentations. Changing the input on the
    projector to VGA, changing the output on the PC to DVI, or modifying the projector's refresh rate will
    not resolve the issue.

  5. Question 5

    Single answer

    Which of the following would an administrator use to migrate virtual machines from on
    premises to the cloud?

    • Option A:
      laaS
      Correct
    • Option B:
      SaaS
      Correct
    • Option C:
      DBaaS
      Correct
    • Option D:
      DRaaS
      Correct
    Show Answer & Explanation Hide Answer & Explanation

    Correct Answer: A

    Explanation

    An administrator would use Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS) to migrate virtual machines from on￾premises to the cloud. IaaS is a cloud computing service that provides virtualized computing
    resources, such as servers, storage, and networking, that can be used to deploy and run applications
    in the cloud. By using IaaS, an administrator can create a virtual machine in the cloud and migrate
    the existing virtual machine from on-premises to the cloud.
