TRUE/FALSE
1. It is easier to grow a legacy 10Base2 traditional bus network than a legacy 10BaseT star-based
network.
ANS: F PTS: 1 REF: 500
2. Once a network has been set up, you don't need to analyze the LAN topology and resources anymore.
ANS: F PTS: 1 REF: 501
3. When installing cable, do not leave much extra at the endpoints, or it can get tangled and cause
network errors.
ANS: F PTS: 1 REF: 505
4. Structured wiring requires that intelligence is built into the chassis hubs or switches.
ANS: T PTS: 1 REF: 506
5. Jamming can be used in either full- or half-duplex mode.
ANS: F PTS: 1 REF: 510
6. Modern networks employ both switches and hubs.
ANS: F PTS: 1 REF: 511
7. An RFP, if it is necessary, comes after an RFI.
ANS: T PTS: 1 REF: 511
8. Interspersing hosts and servers throughout the network typically makes centralized management of
hosts and servers more difficult.
ANS: T PTS: 1 REF: 520
9. WAN vendor equipment ranges from banks of dial-up modems to a combination of channel banks and
router interfaces.
ANS: T PTS: 1 REF: 531
MODIFIED TRUE/FALSE
1. When you upgrade a network, obtain benchmarks of current network use and consider the traffic from
specific devices. _________________________
ANS: T PTS: 1 REF: 498
, 2. The elevated cable is the vertical cable that goes between floors in a building.
_________________________
ANS: F, riser
PTS: 1 REF: 502
3. When installing a network, install 802.11 wireless options in areas where cable is too expensive to
install or where the installation obstacles are too great. _________________________
ANS: T PTS: 1 REF: 505
4. A(n) top-down network is a design theme where the network is centralized at strategic points.
_________________________
ANS: F, structured
PTS: 1 REF: 507
5. Amplification is simply the process of amplifying the carrier signal to simulate a collision.
_________________________
ANS: F, Jamming
PTS: 1 REF: 510
6. When you create or upgrade a LAN, make sure to connect high speed workstations to high-speed
switched ports. _________________________
ANS: F, switches
PTS: 1 REF: 512
7. If a multimedia application is designed to use broadcasting, the participating workstations are divided
into one or more subscription groups. Each data stream is a one-time multimedia transmission that
goes to multiple addresses, instead of a single transmission sent to each address.
_________________________
ANS: F, multicasting
PTS: 1 REF: 521
8. A(n) multiple-cell wireless LAN design is used on small networks of up to about 20 to 25 users.
_________________________
ANS: F, peer-to-peer
PTS: 1 REF: 523
9. Geosynchronous satellites orbit at 22,300 feet and require purchasing time from a provider or great
expense to send up your own satellite. _________________________
