Questions and Answers

What is the main difference between the OSI model and the TCP/IP model?

  • The OSI model is a theoretical framework, while TCP/IP is a practical implementation.
  • The OSI model has 7 layers, while TCP/IP has 4 layers.
  • The OSI model is used to explain network modeling, while TCP/IP is used in modern communication networking. (correct)
  • The OSI model is a competing standard with TCP/IP, while TCP/IP is just a single protocol.
  • What is the format of an IP address?

  • An IP address consists of 4 numbers, each between 0 and 255, separated by periods. (correct)
  • An IP address consists of 8 numbers, each between 0 and 255, separated by periods.
  • An IP address is a single 32-bit number.
  • An IP address is a single 64-bit number.
  • What is the purpose of the subnet mask in an IP address?

  • The subnet mask is used to convert the IP address from decimal to binary.
  • The subnet mask is not needed for TCP/IP communication and is only used in the OSI model.
  • The subnet mask determines which portions of the IP address identify the network and which identify the host. (correct)
  • The subnet mask is used to calculate the default gateway address.
  • What is the purpose of the Address Resolution Protocol (ARP) in TCP/IP communication?
