    53) Situation: Your company's rapid growth has caused an increase in the number of computers on your network. There were 300 computers at the beginning of the year, and there are 1,000 now. Broadcast storms are occurring with increasing frequency on the network. You want to reduce the number of broadcast storms. The following table summarizes your current network configuration.

    Server25, Which run Microsoft Windows NT Server
    Client Computers600 which run Microsoft Windows 95, and
    300 Macintosh Computer that run System 7.x
    75 UNIX computer
    Network Types10BaseT Ethernet
    ProtocolsNetBEUI, TCP/IP with DHCP and WINS, NWLink IPX, AppleTalk
    CableCategory 3 UTP
    Brouters4, with bridging enabled
    Required result: You must reduce the number of broadcast storms by at least 50 percent while minimizing changes in functionality for the client computers.
    Optional desired results: Minimize hardware costs needed to produce the reduction in broadcast storms. Minimize ongoing administrative costs after the changes are made. Allow for continued expansion of the network.
    Proposed solution: Turn off bridging on all of the brouters. Configure all of the computers and brouters to use only NWLink IPX.
    Which results does the proposed solution produce?     One answer only.
       A. The proposed solution produces the required result and produces all of the optional desired results.
       B. The proposed solution produces the required result and produces only 1 of the optional desired results.

    Users on your network report poor network performance. After investigation, you decide that broadcast storms are causing the problem. What should you do to resolve the broadcast storms? One answer only.
       A. Segment the network by using a router.
       B. Segment the network by using a repeater.
       C. Replace NetBEUI with DLC, and then segment the network by using a bridge.
       D. Replace NetBEUI with TCP/IP, and then segment the network by using a router.

    55) Your network has 35 client computers and 1 server. The server runs Microsoft Windows NT Server. Network performance is steadily decreasing as new client computers are added to the network. You run Performance Monitor on the server and obtain the following statistics:

    Counter Average
    % Processor Time: 8
    Page Faults/sec: 2
    % Disk Time: 25
    What should you do to improve network performance? One answer only.
       A. Replace the server with a multiprocessor computer.
       B. Install additional RAM in the server.
       C. Install disk striping with parity on the server
       D. Segment the network by adding another network adapter to the server.

    Situation: Network monitoring shows that network utilization has grown from 30 percent to 70 percent of maximum capacity in the past year. You will add 24 client computers and 1 server within 3 months. You want to reduce network utilization.
    Required result: You must reduce network utilization by 50 percent.
    Optional desired results: You want to allow for continued network growth. You want to maintain the new network utilization levels even after the planned additions to the network are implemented. You want to minimize costs for the project.
    Proposed solution: Change the maximum packet size on all of the computers from 1,514 bytes to 576 bytes. Replace all Category 3 UTP cable with Category 5 UTP cable. Increase TCP window size from 4,096 bytes to 16,384 bytes.
