knowledge presented in the chapter and to prepare for the Chapter Exam. You will be allowed multiple attempts and the grade does not appear in the gradebook.
There are multiple task types that may be available in this quiz. Rather than having static graphics to view, some items may require you to open a PT activity
and perform some investigation and configuration of devices before answering the question.

Which two statements correctly define types of network infrastructure? (Choose two.)
A WAN is designed to provide access to a city and is typically operated by a single entity.
A WLAN is designed to wirelessly interconnect users and end points in a small geographical area. A SAN is designed to support data storage, retrieval, and
replication.
A LAN is designed to provide slower speed bandwidth between WANs.
A WLAN provides wired access to large organizations with campuses, such as universities.
Refer to curriculum topic: 1.2.2
A WAN is designed to provide access to other networks over a wide geographical area. A WAN, not LAN, is designed to provide slower speed bandwidth between
LANs.
Correct! Correct!
Question 9
2 / 2 pts
In which scenario would the use of a WISP be recommended?

Which statement describes a network that supports QoS?
The fewest possible devices are affected by a failure.
The network should be able to expand to keep up with user demand.
The network provides predictable levels of service to different types of traffic. Data sent over the network is not altered in transmission.
Refer to curriculum topic: 1.3.2
QoS means that the network can deliver services in a predictable, measurable, and, if necessary, guaranteed manner. QoS uses classification and queuing to manage
the delivery of data, minimizing delay and packet loss.
Correct!

Correct!
The farther you are from the central office when utilizing a DSL connection, the
the connection speed.
Answer 1:
slower Slower
SLOWER worse Worse WORSE lower Lower LOWER

It allows for billing of network use by the amount of time a connection is established. Data packets can travel through the network using multiple different paths.
Correct!
Network devices dynamically decide on the best available path to forward each packet.
It requires that a data circuit between the source and destination be established before data can be transferred.
