100

A range of IP addresses that a DHCP server can assign to clients.

What is a scope?  [Also accept pool]

100

When browsing the web, your computer will be sending information over this common TCP/IP protocol.

200
The type of connector used for CAT 6 twisted pair cables.

What is RJ-45

200

What provides digital connection to the internet via phone lines?

What is Digital Subscriber Line (DSL)?

This protocol is ongoing at the Network/ Internet layer with host to host connection without confirmation.

What is UDP?

300

This Subnet mask class has values 224-239 and identifies multi-computers rather than a single host.

What is "unlit?"

300

This table keeps track of a network’s MAC addresses and which switch port each one is connected to.

What is the Content Addressable Memory (CAM) table?

400

This layer of the OSI model sets the standards for sending and receiving electrical signals between devices.
