Computer Networks Questions
C
Correct answer
Explanation
LDAP (Lightweight Directory Access Protocol) uses port 389 for standard communication and port 636 for LDAPS (LDAP over SSL). Port 110 is for POP3, 443 is for HTTPS, and 689 is not a standard LDAP port.
D
Correct answer
Explanation
The default TCP port for TIBCO Rendezvous Routing Daemon (rvrd) is 7500. This is the standard port used for Rendezvous network communications. Ports 7600, 7680, and 7504 are used for other TIBCO services or are non-standard configurations.
-
maximum through put from the send
-
Determins the network efficiency
-
Maximum listening capacity
-
None
A
Correct answer
Explanation
Present perfect 'Mohan has come' correctly uses 'has' for third-person singular subjects. 'Mohan have comes' wrongly pairs singular subject with plural auxiliary and adds unnecessary 's', 'Mohan is come' incorrectly uses present continuous, and 'Mohan was come' misuses past tense.
-
It's what you take in a storm.
-
It's the protocol e-mail messages have to follow to travel over the Internet.
-
It's a data connection that allows information transfer to and from a specific server process.
-
None of the above
C
Correct answer
Explanation
In networking, a port is a numerical identifier (0-65535) that allows specific server processes or applications to send and receive data through network connections. When a client connects to a server, it specifies both the IP address and the port number to identify which service or process it wants to communicate with (e.g., port 80 for HTTP, port 25 for SMTP). This enables multiple network services to run concurrently on the same server. Options A and B are incorrect because they refer to unrelated concepts, and Option D is wrong because C is the correct definition.

-
Server Mail Transfer Protocol
A
Correct answer
Explanation
SMTP stands for Simple Mail Transfer Protocol, which is the standard communication protocol used for transmitting email messages across the Internet. SMTP servers handle the sending and relaying of outgoing email messages between mail servers. When you send an email, your email client uses SMTP to transfer the message to your mail server, which then relays it to the recipient's mail server. The other options are incorrect acronyms that do not represent the actual SMTP protocol.
-
Web and FTP servers
-
POP3 and IMAP servers
-
SQL and AVG servers
-
SMTP server
B
Correct answer
Explanation
Incoming email messages are handled by POP3 (Post Office Protocol version 3) and IMAP (Internet Message Access Protocol) servers. These protocols allow email clients to retrieve messages from the mail server - POP3 typically downloads and removes messages from the server, while IMAP keeps messages on the server and synchronizes across multiple devices. SMTP servers handle only outgoing email transmission, not incoming messages. Web and FTP servers serve different purposes, and SQL/AVG are database-related terms.
-
TCP/IP connection
-
ODBC
-
FTP
-
All the above
A
Correct answer
Explanation
Repository clients communicate with the Repository Service using TCP/IP protocol over a specified port. This is the standard networking protocol for client-server communication in Informatica PowerCenter. ODBC is for database connectivity and FTP is for file transfer.
-
communicating real time on the Internet.
-
program that enhances a browser's capability.
-
protocol used on the Internet that sends packets of information.
-
a perfomance matrix used for authentic assessment.
C
Correct answer
Explanation
TCP/IP (Transmission Control Protocol/Internet Protocol) is the fundamental protocol suite that powers Internet communication. It breaks data into packets, transmits them across networks, and reassembles them at the destination. It's not a browser enhancement program, real-time communication system, or assessment matrix.

HTTP, SOAP, WSDL
-
SOAP, CORBA, Java RMI Protocol
-
SOAP, XML-RPC
-
XML, WSDL
-
World wide web consortium (W3C)
-
Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF)
-
Both A and B
-
None of the above
C
Correct answer
Explanation
UDDI uses XML (W3C standard), HTTP (IETF standard), and DNS protocols (IETF standard). Both W3C and IETF are standards bodies that define these protocols. W3C governs XML-related standards, while IETF governs HTTP and DNS.
-
Server.Transfer needs a roundtrip, Response.Redirect does not
-
Server.Transfer can transfer user between 2 applicaions
-
Response.Redirect needs roundtrip, Server.Transfer does not
-
No Difference
C
Correct answer
Explanation
Response.Redirect instructs the browser to request the new URL, requiring a client-to-server roundtrip. Server.Transfer executes the destination page directly on the server without informing the browser, saving a network roundtrip.
-
SQL Server uses a random port
-
1433
-
1433 and 1434
-
It depends; the port can be chosen by an administrator
D
Correct answer
Explanation
SQL Server's default port is 1433, but administrators can configure custom ports. The SQL Server Browser service (port 1434) helps clients find named instances. Since port configuration is customizable, Option D is correct - you need to know what port your specific instance uses, not assume a fixed port.
-
IMS Connect
-
IMS Connector for Java
-
IC4J
-
Resource Adapeter
-
Only b,c and d
E
Correct answer
Explanation
For connecting WebSphere Application Server (WAS) to IMS, the Java EE resource adapter architecture is used. Under the hood, this involves the IMS Connector for Java (IC4J) which is packaged and configured as a Resource Adapter (RAR file) on WAS. Hence, b, c, and d are all relevant configuration components.
-
route add default
-
add route
-
add gateway default
-
router add default
A
Correct answer
Explanation
The 'route add default' command is used to configure a default gateway in Unix/Linux systems. This command adds a default route to the routing table, directing traffic to the default gateway when no specific route is available.
-
Repository server name and port number
-
Repository server name
-
Repository server name and host name
-
Host name and port number
D
Correct answer
Explanation
The Informatica Repository Server is identified by host name and port number. When connecting to a repository, you specify the machine (host) where the repository server runs and the port it listens on. The repository server NAME alone (B) is insufficient. Host name without port (C) is also insufficient. Repository server name with port (A) is incorrect because the identifying information is host+port, not the repository server's internal name.
