1. Hennessy is studying for the Network+ certification exam. The question asked is, "What is the definition of a
network?" How does Hennessy answer?
a. A network is a group of devices.
b. A network is a group of computers and other devices (such as printers) that are connected by some
type of transmission media.
c. A network is comprised of the wiring that flows throughout an office space or building.
d. A network is computer hardware working together.
ANSWER: b
RATIONALE: Loosely defined, a network is a group of computers and other devices (such as
printers) that are connected by some type of transmission media. In order for a
group of computers to be considered a network, the device's hardware and
software must work with a transmission media to allow data to be sent and
received between each device. A network can be as small as a computer hooked
up to the Internet or as big as the Internet itself.

2. David is new at his networking job, and his supervisor quizzes him on the differences between physical and
logical network topology. What is the correct answer?
a. Physical computer topology refers to how data is transmitted between devices in a network. Logical
topology deals with the actual layout of devices and cables.
b. Peer-to-peer network topology refers to how data is transmitted between devices in a network. Star
topology deals with the actual layout of devices and cables.
c. Logical network topology refers to how data is transmitted between devices in a network. Physical
topology deals with the actual layout of devices and cables.
d. Bus network topology refers to how data is transmitted between devices in a network. Ring topology
deals with the actual layout of devices and cables.
ANSWER: c
RATIONALE: Logical computer network topology refers to the way data is transmitted between
devices in a network. This is determined by the network's protocols and
addressing schemes. Unlike physical topology, which deals with the actual layout
of devices and cables, logical topology focuses on the flow of data and the
communication between devices.

3. Connie is configuring the network for a new restaurant that her company is about to open. She has five
desktop computers, four LaserJet printers, and three laptops. She plans on using a peer-to-peer environment.
What makes peer-to-peer suitable for Connie's restaurant? Choose all that apply.
a. Peer-to-peer is scalable, which means, as the network grows, it is easy to add and change elements.
b. The computers on a peer-to-peer network can share folders and files without the need for an
expensive server.
c. A peer-to-peer network is simple to configure and requires little technical expertise.
d. A peer-to-peer network is practical for connecting more than a few computers, since it is not time-
consuming to manage network resources.
ANSWER: b, c
RATIONALE: Peer-to-peer networks are a cost-effective alternative to other network types.
While a network operating system like Windows Server can be expensive, a peer-
to-peer network allows computers to share folders and files without requiring a
costly server. The setup and configuration of a peer-to-peer network is relatively
easy and does not require extensive technical skills.

4. Irene enjoys working with a client-server architecture. Although it is typically more complex in design and
maintenance than its peer-to-peer counterpart, a client-server architecture offers many advantages. What are
some of the benefits of working in a client-server environment? Choose all that apply.
a. User accounts and passwords to the network are assigned in one place.
b. A central server makes upgrading the network cheaper.
c. Problems on the network can be monitored, diagnosed, and often fixed from one location.
d. Access to multiple shared resources (such as data files or printers) can be centrally granted to
individual users or groups of users.
ANSWER: a, c, d
