CCNA Questions With Answers 1 - 15

Routing is the process of finding the best path to transfer data from source to destination using routers. There are two main types of IP addresses currently used: IPv4 which uses 32-bit addresses and IPv6 which uses 128-bit addresses. The data link layer is responsible for framing and sending messages to the correct device, while the application layer provides network services to applications beyond the OSI model specifications.

1. What is routing?

Answer: Routing is the process to find the right path to transfer the data from
source to the destination. The devices named routers are used for routing process
and these devices are network layered to complete the process.

2. What is the network address?


Answer: The network addresses are used in packets. Each of the network address will
have the network path to identify the particular data link. It will also have a
node and host path to identify the specific device.

3. Tell about the types of IP addresses used at the present time.

Answer: Two types of IP address is used including IPv4 and IPv6. IPv4 is 32-bit
address and IPv6 is 128-bit address.

4. What is the purpose of data link layer?


Answer: The data link layer is used to check the messages that are needed to be
sent to the right device. Framing is another function of the data link layer.

5. What is a Node?
Answer: It is the connection point on the networks that are used for data
transmission. It may be a computer, printer or any other device that can send and
receive the data over any network.

6. What will be the function of the application layer in the networking?


Answer: The application layer is used to support the communication components of
application and it will provide the network services to the application process
that will span beyond the specifications of the OSI reference model.

7. Tell about 100basefx.


Answer: It is one of the best CCNA interview questions that you shouldn’t miss
during the interview preparation. 100BASE-FX is a version of faster Ethernet over
the optical fiber.

8. State the advantages of using switches.


Answer: When the switch will receive a signal, it will create a frame out of bits
received from that signal. In this process, it will access and read the destination
address and after that, it will forward the frame to the right port. It is
considered as the perfect way for data transmission instead of the distribution of
the data on all the ports.

9. What do you mean by a window in terms of networking?


Answer: In networking, a window is used for the number of segments that will be
sent from the source to destination before sending back an acknowledgment.

10. Is a bridge used to divide the network into the smaller sections?
Answer: No, a bridge actually works to take the large network and filter it. It
will not change the size of the network.

11. Which LAN switching method is used in Cisco catalyst 5000?


Answer: In Cisco catalyst 5000, store and forward switching method is used. It
stores the entire frame to buffers and performs CRC check before deciding on the
forwarding or not of the data frame.

12. What is BootP?


Answer: BootP is a protocol that is used for the booting of diskless workstations
connected to the network. It is also known as a boot program. It is also used by
diskless workstations to determine its own IP address as well as IP address of
server system.

13. What will be the advantages of LAN switching?


Answer: The main advantages of LAN switching are given below:

Very efficient and easy migration


Media rate adaption
Full duplex data transmission as well as reception
14. Can you explain the terms multicast, unicast, and broadcast?
Answer: It may be one of the important CCNA interview questions that you will face
in the interview. The explanations of these terms are given below:

Unicast: It is used to specify one to one communication.


Multicast: It is used to specify one to group/many communication.
Broadcast: It is used to specify one to all communication.
15. Can you differentiate static IP address and dynamic IP address?
Answer: A static IP address is reserved and it will not change over time. On the
other hand, a dynamic IP address will be changed every time when you will connect
to the internet. A static IP address is provided manually while the dynamic IP
address will be provided by the DHCP server.
