Data Link layer
-
Application layer
-
Physical layer
-
Presentation layer
D
Correct answer
Explanation
The physical layer consists of the basic networking hardware transmission technologies of a network. It is a fundamental layer underlying the logical data structures of the higher level functions in a network.

Presentation
B
Correct answer
Explanation
In computer networking, the transport layer or layer 4 provides end-to-end communication services for applications within a layered architecture of network components and protocols.
B
Correct answer
Explanation
The Transmission Control Protocol (TCP) is one of the two original core protocols of the Internet protocol suite (IP), and is so common that the entire suite is often called TCP/IP.
-
Network Time Protocol (NTP)
-
Reverse ARP (RARP)
-
Proxy ARP
-
Inverse ARP (IARP)
-
DHCP
C
Correct answer
Explanation
Proxy ARP (Address Resolution Protocol) is a technique by which a device on a given network answers the ARP queries for a network address that is not on that network.
E
Correct answer
Explanation
Address Resolution Protocol (ARP) is a telecommunications protocol used for resolution of network layer addresses into link layer addresses, a critical function in multiple-access networks.

-
Host-to-Host
-
Transport
-
Network
-
Internet
E
Correct answer
Explanation
The internet layer or IP layer is a group of internetworking methods, protocols, and specifications in the Internet protocol suite that are used to transport datagrams (packets) from the originating host across network boundaries, if necessary, to the destination host specified by a network address (IP address) which is defined for this purpose by the Internet Protocol (IP).
-
Secure NAT
-
Static
-
Dynamic
-
PAT
-
DNAT
D
Correct answer
Explanation
Port Address Translation (PAT), is an extension to network address translation (NAT) that permits multiple devices on a local area network (LAN) to be mapped to a single public IP address.
C
Correct answer
Explanation
The User Datagram Protocol (UDP) is one of the core members of the Internet protocol suite With UDP, computer applications can send messages, in this case referred to as datagrams, to other hosts on an Internet Protocol (IP) network without prior communications to set up special transmission channels or data paths.
D
Correct answer
Explanation
The Domain Name System (DNS) is a hierarchical distributed naming system for computers, services, or any resource connected to the Internet or a private network. It associates various information with domain names assigned to each of the participating entities.
C
Correct answer
Explanation
The Internet Control Message Protocol (ICMP) is one of the core protocols of the Internet Protocol Suite. It is used by the operating systems of networked computers to send error messages indicating.

A
Correct answer
Explanation

A
Correct answer
Explanation
The Transmission Control Protocol (TCP) is one of the two original core protocols of the Internet protocol suite (IP), and is so common that the entire suite is often called TCP/IP.
E
Correct answer
Explanation
The X.25 protocol, adopted as a standard by the Consultative Committee for International Telegraph and Telephone (CCITT), is a commonly-used network protocol. The X.25 protocol allows computers on different public networks to communicate through an intermediary computer at the network layer level.
