Networking Terminology Exam Questions
With Correct Answers
Same-layer interaction - answer✔✔The communication between two networking devices for the
purposes of the functions defined at a particular layer of a networking model, using a header
defined by that layer.
secondary root - answer✔✔Refers to the switch configured with the secondary keyword on the
spanning-tree vlan x root {primary | secondary} command, setting its base priority to 28,762.
Secure Shell (SSH) - answer✔✔A TCP/IP application layer protocol supporting terminal
emulation between a client and server, using dynamic key exchange and encryption for privacy.
segment - answer✔✔In TCP, it describes a TCP header and its encapsulated data. Also, in TCP,
it refers to breaking a large chunk of data into smaller pieces. In Ethernet, it is a single cable or
collision domain.
serial cable - answer✔✔A cable with various connectors used to link a router to an external
CSU/DSU in a leased-line setup.
serial interface - answer✔✔An interface on a router for connecting to WAN links like leased
lines and Frame Relay access links.
service set identifier (SSID) - answer✔✔A text string identifying a wireless network.
shared Ethernet - answer✔✔An Ethernet using a hub or coaxial cabling, where devices take
turns sending data to share available bandwidth.
shortest path first (SPF) algorithm - answer✔✔Algorithm used by link-state routing protocols to
find least-cost routes from a router to each subnet.
Simultaneous Authentication of Equals (SAE) - answer✔✔An authentication method in WPA3
for wireless clients and APs, preventing dictionary attacks to discover pre-shared keys.
single-mode fiber - answer✔✔A fiber cable compatible with lasers emitting a single angle of
light, allowing for a smaller core compared to multimode fibers.
site-local scope - answer✔✔In IPv6, packets sent to an address with this scope are forwarded by
routers but not over WAN links to other sites.

Spanning Tree Protocol (STP) - answer✔✔IEEE standard 802.ID protocol allowing switches and
bridges to create a redundant LAN by dynamically blocking some ports to prevent frame
looping.
split-MAC architecture - answer✔✔A wireless AP strategy splitting AP functions between a
wireless LAN controller and lightweight APs.
standard access list - answer✔✔IOS global configuration commands matching only a packet's
source IP address to allow or discard packets on a router.
star topology - answer✔✔A network topology where endpoints are connected to a central device
by point-to-point links.
startup-config file - answer✔✔In Cisco IOS switches and routers, the file in NVRAM holding
the device's configuration loaded into RAM on reload or power on.
stateless address autoconfiguration (SLAAC) - answer✔✔IPv6 feature assigning unicast
addresses without a stateful DHCP server.
stateless DHCPv6 - answer✔✔In IPv6, DHCP servers supplying information like DNS server IP
addresses without leasing IPv6 addresses.
static access interface - answer✔✔A LAN port assigned to a VLAN through static configuration
rather than dynamically.
static route - answer✔✔An IP route on a router configured by the user.
station (STA) - answer✔✔An 802.11 client device associated with a BSS.
STP - answer✔✔See Spanning Tree Protocol.
straight-through cable - answer✔✔An Ethernet cable connecting corresponding pins on each
end.
subinterface - answer✔✔A virtual interface on a physical interface.
subnet - answer✔✔Subdivisions of Class A, B, or C networks configured by a network
administrator.
