A technique in which a network administrator programs a router to use specific paths between networks.
What is static routing?
A three-step process in which transport layer protocols establish a connection between nodes.
What is a three way handshake?
Cables consists of color-coded pairs of insulated copper wires. Every two wires twisted around each other to form pairs, and all the pairs are encased in a plastic sheath.
A two-piece tool that includes both a tone generator and a tone locator. Used together, they can help locate the termination of a wire pair.
Cyber attacks that target vulnerabilities in the database.
What is malware?
A method of routing that automatically calculates the best path between two networks and accumulates this information in a routing table.
What is dynamic routing?
A routing protocol that exhibits characteristics of both distance-vector and link-state routing protocols.
hybrid routing protocol?
Cable consists of twisted-pair wires that are not only individually insulated, but also surrounded by a shielding made of a metallic substance such as a foil.
What is Shielded Twisted Pair?
A simple instrument that can measure multiple characteristics of an electric circuit, including its resistance, voltage, and impedance.
What is multimeter?
What does DDoS stand for?
What is Distributed Denial of Service?
A backup route, usually to another router, used when a router cannot determine a path to a message’s destination.
What is default route?
Protocol works in conjunction with IPv4 to discover the MAC address of a node on the local network and to maintain a database that maps local IP addresses to MAC addresses. Found in the data link layer
What is ARP?
A type of fiber-optic cable with a narrow core of 8 to 10 microns in diameter that carries light pulses along a single path from one end of the cable to another.
What is Single Mode Fiber (SMF)?
The ability of a cable to carry a signal to its destination.
What is continuity?
Technique where a hacker disguises themselves as a known or trusted source.
What is spoofing?
A command-line tool that shows a host’s routing table.
What is route command?
Protocol used by core routers and edge routers within autonomous systems.
What is IGPs?
A type of fiber-optic cable containing a core that is usually 50 or 62.5 microns in diameter, over which many pulses of light generated by a laser or LED travel at different angles.
What is Multimode Fiber (MMF)?
A troubleshooting tool that tests cables for continuity, but can also measure crosstalk, attenuation, and impedance; identify the location of faults; and store or print cable testing results.
What is cable performance tester?
This was considered the worst password as of 2017 and 2018?
What is 123456?
The router on a network that accepts all unrouteable messages from other routers.
What is gateway of last resort?
A type of routing protocol used by edge routers and exterior routers to distribute data outside of autonomous systems.
What is EGP?
A method of delivering up to 15.4 watts to devices using Ethernet connection cables.
What is PoE (Power over Ethernet)?
A device that measures the amount of light power transmitted on a fiber-optic line. Also called light meter.
What is OPM (Optical power meter)?
This group created the internet.
Who is ARPANET?
