Which type of backup site has the fastest recovery time?

Which type of backup site has the fastest recovery time?

• Hot site
• Cold site
• Middle Site
• Warm Site 

 

EXPLANATION

A hot backup site is a full duplicate of the source data center, so has the fastest recovery time but also the highest price tag. The warm site is a scaled-down hot site,
which includes basics like power, networking, and telecommunications that are active at all times. A cold site usually includes power and physical space when not in use, giving you the longest recovery window for the cheapest price.

A user can receive email but cannot send any. Which protocol, responsible for sending email, is potentially not configured properly?

A user can receive email but cannot send any. Which protocol, responsible for sending email, is potentially not configured properly?

• SNMP
• FTP
• POP3
• SMTP

EXPLANATION

The simple mail transfer protocol (SMTP) is probably not configured properly.
When troubleshooting, you need to confirm the SMTP setting because it is responsible for sending mail. POP3 receives mail, so wouldn't be responsible for the send issue, unless you are using Outlook (where POP3 authentication is required before email can be sent over SMTP). FTP sends files to remote computers and SNMP is used to manage networks.
FTP and SNMP are not responsible for users sending or receiving email.
