Practice Questions

Question 1

A junior network administrator has recently been hired . Due to his lack of experience, his rights and privileges will be closely monitored for the first few months. You want to allow the new junior administrator to view the contents of the WINS database without being able to make any configuration changes. How should you proceed?

  • A. Add the user account to the Administrators group .

  • B. Add the user account to the WINS Administrators group.

  • C. Add the user account to the WINS Users group.

  • D. Add the user account to the Enterprise Admins group.

A1:

Answer C is correct. By adding a user account to the WINS Users group, the user is given the right to view the contents of the WINS database but is not allowed to make any configuration changes. Answers A and D are incorrect because adding the user to either of these groups gives the user the capability to make configuration changes. Answer B is incorrect because there is no such group as the WINS Administrators group.

Question 2

You have two WINS servers on the network that are configured as replication partners . Each WINS server is located on a different subnet. You want to automatically back up the WINS database on both WINS servers every couple of hours. How should you configure this?

  • A. Within the WINS console, right-click the WINS server and choose Properties. From the Properties window, select the Backup tab and click the Automatically Backup Database option.

  • B. Within the WINS console, right-click the WINS server and choose Properties. From the Properties window, select the General tab and specify the backup path .

  • C. Within the WINS console, right-click the WINS server and choose Properties. From the Properties window, select the General tab and click the Automatically Backup Database option.

  • D. Within the WINS console, right-click the WINS server and choose Properties. From the Properties window, select the Advanced tab and specify the backup path.

A2:

Answer B is correct. Automatic backups can be configured by right-clicking the WINS server and choosing Properties. From the Properties window, click the General tab and specify the backup path. Once the path is specified, the WINS database is automatically backed up every three hours. Therefore, answers A, C, and D are incorrect.

Question 3

A network consists of several subnets. All clients are WINS-enabled and capable of updating their records dynamically. Each of the subnets has its own WINS server. One of the subnets contains two UNIX servers. Hosts on the local subnet can communicate with the UNIX servers; however, hosts on other subnets are unsuccessful . Clients can resolve NetBIOS names for hosts on other subnets. How can you configure WINS, so clients on all subnets can resolve the NetBIOS names of the UNIX servers to IP addresses?

  • A. On each of the subnets, configure a secondary WINS server on each subnet.

  • B. Configure the WINS servers as replication partners.

  • C. Configure the WINS servers to back up their local databases.

  • D. Configure static mappings for the two UNIX servers.

A3:

Answer D is correct. To allow hosts on other subnets to resolve the NetBIOS names of the UNIX servers, static mapping must be configured because the UNIX servers are unable to register their NetBIOS records dynamically. Answers A and C are incorrect because performing these tasks does not allow hosts to resolve the NetBIOS names of the UNIX servers. Answer B is incorrect because if the clients can already resolve the names of hosts on other subnets, replication is already configured between the WINS servers.

Question 4

A routed IP network has a mixture of WINS and non-WINS clients. Three of the seven subnets contain WINS servers. Several users report that they are unable to browse hosts on other subnets. Upon investigating the reports , you discover that the problem is only affecting non-WINS clients. How can the B-node broadcasts be resolved across the network?

  • A. Configure static mappings for the non-WINS clients.

  • B. Install a WINS proxy on each subnet that does not have a local WINS server.

  • C. Configure replication between the three WINS servers.

  • D. Configure a DHCP relay agent on each subnet.

A4:

Answer B is correct. To allow B-node broadcasts to be resolved across the network, a WINS proxy agent must be configured. The WINS proxy listens for B-node broadcasts and contacts the WINS servers on the other subnets to resolve the name resolution request on behalf of the non-WINS client. Therefore, answers A, C, and D are incorrect.

Question 5

Your network consists of two subnets. Due to budget constraints, only one server is configured. You need to configure a WINS proxy on the subnet that does not contain a WINS server. How should you proceed?

  • A. Using the Add/Remove programs applet, install the WINS proxy component.

  • B. Add the WINS proxy component through the Properties for the local area connection.

  • C. Edit the Registry and change the value for the EnableProxy parameter to 1 .

  • D. Edit the Registry and change the node type from B-node to M-node.

A5:

Answer C is correct. The WINS proxy component can be enabled on a computer through the Registry by changing the value of the EnableProxy parameter to 1 . Answers A and B are incorrect because the WINS proxy is not a component that is installed. Answer D is incorrect because changing the node type changes the way in which a client resolves NetBIOS names.

Question 6

Your network experienced a power outage that lasted for several hours. When the outage occurred, the client workstations did not shut down properly. When the power was returned, the WINS server was unable to handle the large number of registration requests. How can you increase the number of registration requests that a WINS server can handle at a given time?

  • A. Configure burst handling.

  • B. Enable persistent connections.

  • C. Configure the refresh interval.

  • D. Initiate manual scavenging of the WINS database.

A6:

Answer A is correct. By configuring burst handling, the WINS server can successfully respond to name registration requests before actually registering the name in the WINS database. Answer B is incorrect because persistent connections are used between WINS replication partners. Answer C is incorrect because the refresh interval determines how long a name can be registered by a client before it needs to be renewed. Answer D is incorrect because scavenging removes those entries from the WINS database that have been marked as extinct.

Question 7

A client has been configured to use P-node for name resolution. Which method will the client use first when trying to resolve a NetBIOS name to an IP address?

  • A. NetBIOS name server

  • B. LMHOSTS file

  • C. Broadcast

  • D. Local cache

A7:

Answer D is correct. When resolving NetBIOS names to IP addresses, clients always check their local name cache regardless of the node type with which they are configured. Therefore, answers A, B, and C are incorrect.

Question 8

A client has been configured to use H-node for name resolution. After checking the local name cache, which of the following name resolution methods will the client attempt to use next to resolve the NetBIOS name?

  • A. LMHOSTS

  • B. Broadcast

  • C. NetBIOS name server

  • D. DNS

A8:

Answer C is correct. After checking the local name cache, a client that is configured to use H-node for name resolution will attempt to resolve the name by contacting a NetBIOS name server. Answer A is incorrect because LMHOSTS files are parsed after the client has tried to resolve the NetBIOS name using one of the other methods. Answer B is incorrect because the client performs a broadcast only if the WINS server is unable to resolve the name. Answer D is incorrect because a DNS server is not contacted until an attempt is made to resolve the name using one of the other methods.

Question 9

You are configuring an LMHOSTS file for use by clients to resolve NetBIOS names to IP addresses. To facilitate the logon process, you want to place entries in the file for domain controllers on the network. Which of the following directives should be included when creating the entries for the domain controllers?

  • A. #pre

  • B. #MH

  • C. #include

  • D. #DOM:domain_name

A9:

Answer D is correct. The #DOM: domain_name directive indicates that the record is for a domain controller on the network. Answer A is incorrect because the #pre option is used to preload entries into the local cache. Answer B is incorrect because the #MH option is used to identify a multihomed computer. Answer C is incorrect because the #include option specifies an LMHOSTS file other than the local one that clients should use.

Question 10

Your network consists of a single WINS server. You want all clients to use the WINS server when resolving NetBIOS names. However, in the event that the WINS server is unavailable, you want the clients to use a local broadcast to resolve names. Which of the following node types should clients be configured with?

  • A. B-node

  • B. H-node

  • C. M-node

  • D. P-node

A10:

Answer B is correct. When clients are configured to use H-node, they first attempt to resolve NetBIOS names using a NetBIOS name server, and then perform a local broadcast. Answer A is incorrect because B-node indicates only a broadcast. Answer C is incorrect because M-node indicates a broadcast is performed, and then the NetBIOS name server is queried. Answer D is incorrect because P-node indicates that names are resolved using a NetBIOS name server only.
