Hardware
This small form factor of RAM is commonly used in laptops.
What is SO-DIMM?
This type of network connects multiple local area networks (LANs) across a large geographic area.
What is a wide area network (WAN)?
This wireless technology allows mobile devices to "Pair" and exchange data over short distances.
What is Bluetooth?
This technology allows multiple operating systems to run simultaneously on a single physical machine.
What is virtualization?
This command-line tool sends a series of packets to a specified network address to check connectivity.
What is ping?
This type of cable is used to connect a computer to a local network and has an RJ-45 connector.
What is an Ethernet cable?
This device is used to connect computers to a network using cables.
What is a switch?
This technology is used to make secure, contactless payments with a mobile device.
What is Near Field Communication (NFC)?
This type of hypervisor runs directly on the host's hardware to control the hardware and manage guest operating systems.
What is a Type 1 (Bare Metal) hypervisor?
This networking troubleshooting tool is used to trace the route that data packets take to reach their destination.
What is traceroute?
In a CPU, this type of memory stores frequently used data to increase processing speed.
What is cache memory?
This protocol automates the assignment of IP addresses to devices on a network.
What is DHCP?
This technology allows devices to wirelessly share data and internet connections with other nearby devices by using the mobile device as an AP.
What is a hotspot?
In this type of cloud deployment model, the cloud infrastructure is shared among several organizations with similar requirements and concerns.
What is a community cloud?
This term describes a step-by-step approach to identifying, diagnosing, and resolving hardware or network issues.
What is troubleshooting?
This term refers to a computer's non-volatile firmware, which initializes hardware during the boot process.
What is BIOS or UEFI?
This device forwards data between different networks by keeping a table of subnets that is used to look up the correct path to take.
What is a router?
This sensor in mobile devices measures linear acceleration along three axes (X, Y, and Z).
What is an accelerometer?
This cloud computing service model provides virtualized computing resources over the internet.
What is Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS)?
This networking issue occurs when two devices on the same network are assigned the same IP address, causing connectivity problems.
What is an IP address conflict?
This technology is used by SSDs to store data without the need for a spinning disk.
What is (NAND) flash memory?
This type of address is used to communicate with all devices on a network and has a value of FF:FF:FF:FF:FF:FF
What is a broadcast MAC address?
This sensor in mobile devices is used to determine orientation and rotation based on the Earth's gravitational pull and angular velocity.
What is a gyroscope?
This process enables a virtual machine to quickly return to a previous state by backups of the VM at specific intervals.
What is a checkpoint or snapshot?
This Windows utility, often run from the command line, allows users to check and repair file system errors.
What is CHKDSK?
