Accepted Answer

Question 8

Assume that "host1.mydomain.dom" has an IP address of 145.128.16.8. Which of the following options would be most appropriate as a subsequence of steps in performing the reverse lookup of 145.128.16.8? In the following options "NS" is an abbreviation of "nameserver".

Accepted Answer

Query a NS for in-addr.arpa and then a NS for 128.145.in-addr.arpa domains

Answer

Query a NS for the root domain and then NS for the "dom" domains

Answer

Directly query a NS for "dom" and then a NS for "mydomain.dom" domains

Answer

Directly query a NS for 145.in-addr.arpa and then a NS for 128.145.in-addr.arpa domains

Question 9

Traceroute reports a possible route that is taken by packets moving from some host A to some other host B. Which of the following options represents the technique used by traceroute to identify these hosts

Accepted Answer

By progressively querying routers about the next router on the path to B using ICMP packets, starting with the first router

Answer

By requiring each router to append the address to the ICMP packet as it is forwarded to B. The list of all routers en - route to B is returned by B in an ICMP reply packet

Answer

By ensuring that an ICMP reply packet is returned to A by each router en-route to B, in the ascending order of their hop
distance from A

Answer

By locally computing the shortest path from A to B

Question 10
