b. It has the pins 1–8 cabled the same on the other side.
c. Pin 1 on one side connects to pin 3 on the other side and pin 2 connects to pin 6 on the other end.
d. Pin 2 on one side connects to pin 3 on the other side, and pin 1 connects to pin 6 on the other end.
9. Routers are devices of _________ layer of the Cisco hierarchical model.
a. Physical
b. Transport
c. Distribution
d. Network
10. Which of the OSI layers are responsible for defining the signal strength standards?

Answers
1. Answer A is correct. The IPX is proprietary to Novell and is not a universal standard.
2. Answer A is correct. Both the network Id and the Host ID as a general rule cannot be either all zeroes or all ones.
3. Answer A is correct. Ack is always Seq.no +1. Hence the acknowledgement will be Ack2.
4. Answer D is correct. Segmenting data is the responsibility of the transport layer.
5. Answer A is correct. LLC sub-layer of the Data Link helps to identify the upper protocol stack to its peer layer during a network communication. It uses Service Access Points for this purpose.
6. Answers B and C are correct. Crossover cables are used to connect switch to switch and hub to switch.
7. Answer B is correct. MAC addresses, also called hardware addresses, are used to uniquely identify hosts on a local network, by the Data link Layer.
8. Answer C is correct. Crossover cables are used to connect hubs to switches, PC to PC, etc. Pin 1 connects to pin 3 on the other end, and pin 2 connects to pin 6.
9. Answer C is correct. Routers are defined in the distribution layer of the Cisco hierarchical model.
10. Answer A is correct. The Physical layer is used to encode 1s and 0s into a digital signal to be transported over a network medium.
