    Three characteristics of a peer-to-peer network are that they are easy to create, lack centralized administration, and have lower costs than client/server networks because they do not require dedicated servers or network devices. A router determines the path that messages take through internetworks. The distance a medium can carry a signal and the environment it is installed in are two criteria used to select a network medium.

    1.

    A company is contemplating whether to use a client/server or a peer-to-peer


    network. What are three characteristics of a peer-to-peer network? (Choose three.)
     better security
     easy to create*
     better device performance when acting as both client and server
     lacks centralized administration *
     less cost to implement*
     scalable
    Explain:
    Because network devices and dedicated servers are not required, peer-to-peer
    networks are easy to create, less complex, and have lower costs. Peer-to-peer
    networks also have no centralized administration. They are less secure, not
    scalable, and those devices acting as both client and server may perform slower.
    2. Which device performs the function of determining the path that messages should
    take through internetworks?
     a router*
     a firewall
     a web server
     a DSL modem
    Explain:
    A router is used to determine the path that the messages should take through the
    network. A firewall is used to filter incoming and outgoing traffic. A DSL modem is
    used to provide Internet connection for a home or an organization.
    3. What two criteria are used to help select a network medium from various
    network media? (Choose two.)
     the types of data that need to be prioritized
     the cost of the end devices utilized in the network
     the distance the selected medium can successfully carry a signal*
     the number of intermediary devices installed in the network
     the environment where the selected medium is to be installed*
    Explain:
    Criteria for choosing a network medium are the distance the selected medium
    can successfully carry a signal, the environment in which the selected medium is
    to be installed, the amount of data and the speed at which the data must be
    transmitted, and the cost of the medium and its installation.
    4. Which two statements describe intermediary devices? (Choose two.)
     Intermediary devices generate data content.
     Intermediary devices alter data content.
     Intermediary devices direct the path of the data. *
     Intermediary devices connect individual hosts to the network.*
     Intermediary devices initiate the encapsulation process.
    Explain:
    Applications on end devices generate data, alter data content, and are
    responsible for initiating the encapsulation process.
    5. What are two functions of end devices on a network? (Choose two.)
     They originate the data that flows through the network.*
     They direct data over alternate paths in the event of link failures.
     They filter the flow of data to enhance security.
     They are the interface between humans and the communication network.*
     They provide the channel over which the network message travels.
    Explain:
    End devices originate the data that flows through the network. Intermediary
    devices direct data over alternate paths in the event of link failures and filter the
    flow of data to enhance security. Network media provide the channel through
    which network messages travel.
