Question 1

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

  1. Option A:
    VLAN

  2. Option B:
    VRRP
  3. Option C:
    VPN
  4. Option D:
    DHCP
Show answer and explanation

Correct answer: A

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.

Question 2 (choose 2)

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).

  1. Option A:
    Configure RAID 1.


  2. Option B:
    Install a hybrid drive.


  3. Option C:
    Upgrade to 1GB NIC.


  4. Option D:
    Increase the RAM.


  5. Option E:
    Migrate to a SSD.


  6. Option F:
    Upgrade the power supply.
Show answer and explanation

Correct answer: D, E

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.
