CCNA – Protocols & Services

Here you will find answers to CCNA – Protocols & Services Questions

Question 1

An administrator attempts a traceroute but receives a “Destination Unreachable”

message Which protocol is responsible for that message?

A RARP

B RUDP

C ICMP

D SNMP

Answer: C

Explanation

The ICMP destination unreachable message is generated by a router (which is reachable)

to inform the source host that the destination unicast address is unreachable

Question 2

DNS servers provide what service?

A They run a spell check on host names to ensure accurate routing

B They convert domain names into IP address

C Given an IP address.they determine the name of the host that is sought

D They map individual hosts to their specific IP addresses

Answer: B

Explanation

For example, when you open a web browser (IE, Firefox…) and type a domain (like google.com) This domain will be sent to a DNS server The DNS server looks up this domain in its database and sends back a corresponding IP address which you can use to access that website

Note: A DNS server can be a dedicated device for DNS service or integrated into a networking device (like router)

Question 3

Which of the following protocols uses both TCP and UDP ports?

A SMTP

B Telnet

C FTP

D DNS

Answer: D

Explanation

DNS can use either the User Datagram Protocol (UDP) or Transmission Control Protocol (TCP) with a destination port of 53

Note:

+Simple Mail Transfer Protocol (SMTP) is specified for mail transport and uses TCP

port 25

+ Telnet uses TCP on port 23

+ File Transfer Protocol (FTP) uses TCP on port 20, 21

+ Trivial File Transfer Protocol (TFTP) uses UDP on port 69

+ HTTP Secure (HTTPS) uses TCP on port 443

Question 4

Which protocol should be used to establish a secure terminal connection to a remote network device?

A ARP

B SSH

C Telnet

D WEP

E SNMPv1

F SNMPv2

Answer: B

Explanation

Secure Shell (SSH) protocols secure terminal session data across insecure environments such as the internet

Question 5

A network administrator issues the ping 192.168.2.5 command and successfully tests connectivity to a host that has been newly connected to the network Which protocols were used during the test? (Choose two)

A ARP

B CDP

C DHCP

D DNS

E ICMP

Answer: A E

Explanation

In this question we are not sure the host 192.168.2.5 is in or outside the local network But in both cases the ARP protocol are used to get the MAC address:

+ If host 192.168.2.5 is inside the local network, our device will broadcast an ARP

Request to ask the MAC address of the host 192.168.2.5 (something like “If your IP is 192.168.2.5, please send me your MAC address”)

+ If host 192.168.2.5 is outside the local network, our device will broadcast an ARP Request to ask the MAC address of the local port (the port in the same subnet with our device) of the default gateway Notice that the IP of the default gateway has been already configured in our device

-> In both cases, our device must broadcast an ARP Request -> A is correct

After getting the ARP of the destination device, our device will use ICMP protocol to send the “ping” -> E is correct

Note: The question states “the host has been newly connected to the network” which means our device hasn’t had the MAC address of this host in its ARP table -> it needs to send ARP Request

There is one situation which makes answer A incorrect: the newly connected host is outside the network but our device has already learned the MAC address of the default gateway -> in this case no ARP Request will be sent So I assume the question wants to imply the newly connected host is in the local network

Question 6

Which network protocol does DNS use?

A FTP

B TFTP

C TCP

D UDP

E SCP

Answer: D

Explanation

It is funny that in Question 3 I answered “DNS uses both TCP & UDP” but in this

question we can only choose one answer and it should be “DNS uses UDP” So I wish to explain more:

Normally a client sends a DNS Query using UDP Protocol over Port 53 If it does not get response from a DNS Server, it must re-transmit the DNS Query using TCP after 3-5 seconds So we can say DNS prefers using UDP to TCP -> the answer should be UDP

Question 7

When two hosts are trying to communicate across a network, how does the host

originating the communication determine the hardware address of the host that it wants to

“talk” to?

A RARP request

B Show Network Address request

C Proxy ARP request

D ARP request

E Show Hardware Address request

Answer: D

Explanation

The address resolution protocol (ARP) is a protocol used to map IP network addresses to the hardware addresses

+ If the destination host is inside the local network, the originating host will broadcast an ARP Request to ask the MAC address of that host

+ If the destination host is outside the local network, the originating host will broadcast

an ARP Request to ask the MAC address of the local port (the port in the same subnet with our device) of the default gateway Notice that the IP of the default gateway has been already configured in our device

Question 8

Refer to the exhibit, Host A pings interface S0/0 on router 3, what is the TTL value for that ping?

A 253

B 252

C 255

D 254

Answer: A

Explanation

From the CCNA ICND2 Exam book: “Routers decrement the TTL by 1 every time they forward a packet; if a router decrements the TTL to 0, it throws away the packet This prevents packets from rotating forever.” I want to make it clear that before the router

forwards a packet, the TTL is still remain the same For example in the topology above, pings to S0/1 and S0/0 of Router 2 have the same TTL

The picture below shows TTL values for each interface of each router and for Host B Notice that Host A initializes ICMP packet with a TTL of 255:
