True or False
1.
A common way to share resources on a peer-to-peer network is by modifying the
file-sharing controls via the computer’s operating system.
2. Resource sharing is controlled by a central computer or authority.
3. Clients on a client/server network share their resources directly with each other.
4. Networks are usually only arranged in a ring, bus, or star formation and hybrid
combinations of these patterns are not possible.
5. Protocols ensure that data are transferred whole, in sequence, and without error
from one node on the network to another.
6. Every process that occurs during network communications can be associated
with a layer of the OSI Model.
7. Among the Session layer’s functions are establishing and keeping alive the
communications link for the duration of the session, keeping the communication
secure, synchronizing the dialogue between the two nodes, determining whether
communications have been cut off, and, if so, figuring out where to restart
transmission, and terminating communications.
8. The primary function of protocols at the session layer is to translate network
addresses into their physical counterparts and decide how to route data from the
sender to the receiver.
9. Addressing is a system for assigning unique identification numbers to devices on
a network.
10. Connectivity devices such as hubs and repeaters operate at the Presentation layer
of the OSI Model.
