3.What are the key functions of encapsulation? (Choose three.)

--> identifies pieces of data as part of the same communication

5.Which two layers of the OSI model have the same functions as the TCP/IP model Network Access Layer? (Choose two.)

--> Physical
--> Data Link


6.What is a PDU?

--> a layer specific encapsulation


7.Which characteristic correctly refers to end devices in a network?

--> originate data flow


8.Refer to the exhibit. "Cell A" at IP address 10.0.0.34 has established an IP session with "IP Phone 1" at IP address 172.16.1.103. Based upon the graphic, which device type best describes the function of wireless device "Cell A?"

--> Network C -- LAN
--> Network A -- LAN


10.Which three statements best describe a Local Area Network (LAN)? (Choose three.)

--> A LAN is usually in a single geographical area.
--> The network is administered by a single organization.
--> A LAN provides network services and access to applications for users within a common organization.


11.Refer to the exhibit. Which networking term describes the data interleaving process represented in the graphic?

--> multiplexing


12.What is the primary purpose of Layer 4 port assignment?

--> the destination host address


18.Refer to the exhibit. Which set of devices contains only end devices?

--> E, F, H, I, J


19.During the encapsulation process, what occurs at the data link layer?

--> The physical address is added.


20.What is the purpose of the TCP/IP Network Access layer?

--> detailing the components that make up the physical link and how to access it


21.What is the proper order of the layers of the OSI model from the highest layer to the lowest layer?

--> application, presentation, session, transport, network, data link, physical
