Which of following is NOT a valid HTTP Status response recognized by most browsers?

Which of following is NOT a valid HTTP Status response recognized by most browsers?

• 429 Too Many Requests
• 437 UDP sequence mismatch
• 410 Gone
• 418 I am a Teapot 

 

EXPLANATION

410, 418, and 429 are supported in all the major browsers. 

437 is made up from whole cloth... UDP isn't in the same protocol layer as HTTP, and even if it does it doesn't have sequences.

(Question grew out of my love of the 418 status code!  Yeah, it is an easily google-able question.)

Which of the following can use both TCP and UDP?

Which of the following can use both TCP and UDP?

• Telnet
• FTP
• SSL
• DNS

 

EXPLANATION

 The correct answer is TCP- Transfers; UDP- Queries. The DNS uses TCP Port 53 for zone transfers, for maintaining coherence between the DNS database and the server. The UDP protocol is used when a client sends a query to the DNS server. The TCP protocol should not be used for queries as it gives a lot of information, which is useful to attackers. To remember this just note the capitalized letters are unique to each other: Tcp = Transfer and Udp = qUeries.
