A wireless router performs the same functions of a wireless access point along with other capabilities such as _____________.
A. managing and securing the network.
B. allowing WIFI devices to connect to a wired network.
C. communicating with the network interface card.
D. managing the network bandwidth and prioritizing traffic.
are you sure
Yes, I'm sure. Wireless routers typically have additional capabilities beyond that of a wireless access point. One of those capabilities includes managing and securing the network, allowing devices to connect to a wired network, and communicating with the network interface card. In addition, a wireless router also often manages the network bandwidth by prioritizing traffic and providing features like Quality of Service (QoS) settings.
One main difference between a WLAN and a VLAN is that a VLAN allows?
WLAN - Wireless Local Area Network
VLAN - Virtual Local Area Network
A. anyone connected to the network uses the same network and the same settings.
B. for different networks and different network settings.
B. for different networks and different network settings.
In a WLAN, anyone connected to the network uses the same network and the same settings, meaning all devices are part of a single wireless network.
On the other hand, a VLAN allows for different networks and different network settings. It enables the logical segmentation of a physical network into multiple virtual networks. Devices within a VLAN can communicate with each other as if they were on the same physical LAN, even if they are physically located on different switches or network segments. VLANs provide enhanced security, better network performance, and easier management by isolating and grouping devices based on their roles, departments, or requirements.
True or False. Wireless connections that use a higher frequency are faster but have a shorter range.
True.
Wireless connections that use a higher frequency, such as 5 GHz, generally have faster data transfer rates compared to lower frequency connections, such as 2.4 GHz. However, higher frequency signals have a shorter range and are more susceptible to obstructions, such as walls or furniture. Therefore, while higher frequency connections offer faster speeds, they may have limitations in terms of range and signal penetration.
Which port is typically used to access websites over an encrypted internet connection?
20
22
80
443
The port typically used to access websites over an encrypted internet connection is port 443. This port is generally used for HTTPS (Hypertext Transfer Protocol Secure) communications, where the data is encrypted using SSL/TLS protocols. Port 80, on the other hand, is commonly used for regular HTTP connections without encryption.
Which is not a feature of a firewall?
closing network ports
filtering incoming packets of data
blocking spam emails
enabling remote management
