Practise interpreting routing-table output, route selection, administrative distance, metrics, next hops and longest-prefix match.
Start Scenario PracticeA security analyst is creating a network baseline for normal traffic patterns. Which TWO metrics should be included to detect anomalies?
Explanation: Average bandwidth usage per hour is correct because it establishes a baseline of typical traffic volume over time, allowing the analyst to detect sudden spikes or drops that may indicate anomalies such as DDoS attacks or data exfiltration. Number of connections per host is correct because it provides a per-device baseline for connection counts, enabling detection of unusual behavior like port scans, botnet activity, or compromised hosts generating excessive outbound connections.
A network analyst is creating a baseline for normal network traffic. Which TWO metrics should be included to establish a baseline?
Explanation: Baselines include average bandwidth usage and typical protocol distribution. Peak traffic times and unusual payload sizes are anomalies, not baseline metrics.
Which of the following is an example of a symmetric encryption algorithm?
Explanation: Symmetric encryption uses the same key for encryption and decryption. AES and 3DES are symmetric algorithms.
A security analyst is selecting a symmetric encryption algorithm for encrypting data at rest. Which of the following is a suitable symmetric algorithm?
Explanation: AES is a widely used symmetric encryption algorithm.
What is the primary difference between symmetric and asymmetric encryption?
Explanation: Symmetric uses one shared key; asymmetric uses a public-private key pair.
