Here's your five-question CCNA Security practice exam!

Question 1:

B. server

C. peer

D. transparent

E. master

F. synch

Question 3:

C. The DR and BDR

A. distance

B. bandwidth

D. MTU

E. delay

Question 4:

Name two major differences between WPA and WEP.

Answer: Wired Equivalent Privacy (WEP) has some real problems:

Clear-text keys

Static keys (makes passwords easier to guess)

One-way authentication (client does not authenticate AP, making it easier for rogue access points to infiltrate the WLAN)

Encryption scheme is very easily broken in a matter of seconds

None of those is true of WPA.


Question 5:

Short answer: Which layer of the OSI model is considered the "manager" of the communication between two end hosts?

Answer: The Session layer.
