Mike works as a Network Engineer for Net Perfect Inc. The company has a multi-platform network. Recently, the company faced lots of blended threat issues that lead to several drastic attacks. Mike has been assigned a project to manage the resources and services of the company through both Intranet and Internet to protect the company from these attacks.
Mike needs a system that provides auto-discovering and network topology building features to allow him to keep an intuitive view of the IT
infrastructure. What will Mike use to meet the requirement of the project?
David system is a network management system that allows a user to manage the resources and services through both Intranet and Internet.
It provides auto-discovering and network topology building features to facilitate in keeping an intuitive view of the IT infrastructure. The
resources, real-time monitoring, and accessibility of historical data facilitate reaction to failures. Configured interfaces for monitored devices
permit a user to focus on the most important aspects of their work.
Answer B is incorrect. dopplerVUe is a network management tool that facilitates network discovery, mapping, alerts and alarm
management, and bandwidth management system. It enables monitoring of Ping, SNMP, syslog, and WMI performance metrics. It can also be
used to monitor IPv6 devices, as well as services such as DNS, http, and email.
Answer A is incorrect. eBox is an open source distribution and web development framework. This framework is used to manage server
application configuration. It is based on Ubuntu Linux. It is projected to manage services in a computer network. The modular design of eBox
allows a user to pick and choose the services.
Answer D is incorrect. EM7 is a network monitoring system that is used to measure IT infrastructure health and performance. It is an
NMS integrated system. It is designed to help in optimizing the performance and availability of the networks, systems, and applications. It
facilitates trouble-ticketing, event management, reporting, IP management, DNS, and monitoring.
You work as a Network Architect for Tech Perfect Inc. The company has a TCP/IP based Enterprise network. The company uses Cisco IOS technologies in the Enterprise network. You have enabled system message logging (syslog) service on all the routers that are currently working in the network. The syslog service provides all the reports, and important error and notification messages. You want to store all the
reports and messages. Choose the locations where you can store all of these.
Each correct answer represents a complete solution. Choose all that apply.
According to the scenario, you have enabled system message logging (syslog) service on all the routers that are currently working in the
network. If you want to store all the repots, important error and notification messages sent by the routers, you can store all of these in the
buffer, console, syslog server, and tty lines.
You can use buffer, if you want to store syslog messages for later analysis of the network. Buffer is the memory of the router. The syslog
messages that you have stored in the buffer are later available for the network analysis until the router is rebooted.
You can use console port of the routers to send syslog messages to the attached terminal. You can also use vty and tty lines to send syslog
messages to the remote terminal. However, the messages send through the console, vty, and tty lines are not later available for network
analysis.
You can use syslog server to store all the reports, and important error and notification messages. It is the best option to store all these
because it is easy to configure a syslog server and you can store a large volume of logs.
Note: If you have configured to run an SNMP agent, the routers send all the reports, and important error and messages in the form of SNMP
traps to an SNMP server. Using this you can store the reports and messages for a long period of time.
Answer A is incorrect. You cannot store syslog messages in the auxiliary line.
You want to append a tar file if the on-disk version of the tar file has a modification date more recent than its copy in the tar archive. Which of the following commands will you use to accomplish the task?
The tar -u command is used to append a tar file if the on-disk version of the tar file has a modification date more recent than its copy in the tar
archive.
Answer B is incorrect. The tar -t command is used to list the contents of an archive.
Answer D is incorrect. The tar -x command is used to extract the files from an archive.
Answer C is incorrect. The tar -c command is used to create a new archive of specified files.
Which of the following commands can be used to intercept and log the Linux kernel messages?
Each correct answer represents a complete solution. Choose all that apply.
The klogd and sysklogd commands can be used to intercept and log the Linux kernel messages.
Which of the following tools uses Internet Control Message Protocol (ICMP)?
A ping scanner is a tool that sends ICMP ECHO requests across a network and rapidly makes a list of responding nodes.
Internet Control Message Protocol (ICMP) is an integral part of IP. It is used to report an error in datagram processing. The Internet Protocol
(IP) is used for host-to-host datagram service in a network. The network is configured with connecting devices called gateways. When an
error occurs in datagram processing, gateways or destination hosts report the error to the source hosts through the ICMP protocol. The ICMP
messages are sent in various situations, such as when a datagram cannot reach its destination, when the gateway cannot direct the host to
send traffic on a shorter route, when the gateway does not have the buffering capacity, etc.
Answer C, A, and B are incorrect. These tools do not use ICMP to perform their functions.
