What is the name of Microsoft's virtualization suite?

EXPLANATION

VMware
vmware.comVMware, Inc. is a subsidiary of Dell Technologies that provides cloud computing and platform virtualization software and services. It was the first commercially successful company to virtualize the x86 architecture.
Hyper-V

Microsoft Hyper-V, codenamed Viridian and formerly known as Windows Server Virtualization, is a native hypervisor; it can create virtual machines on x86-64 systems running Windows. Starting with Windows 8, Hyper-V superseded Windows Virtual PC as the hardware virtualization component of the client editions of Windows NT. A server computer running Hyper-V can be configured to expose individual virtual machines to one or more networks.
Type:Native hypervisor
Included with:Windows Server 2008 and later, Select editions of Windows 8 and later
Replaces:Windows Virtual PC

What is the longest run of UTP cable allowed for a single segment connection?

What is the longest run of UTP cable allowed for a single segment connection?

  • 110 to 150 meters
  • 90 to 100 Meters
  • 100 to 105 meters
  • 80 to 89 meters 

EXPLANATION

UTP cable does not have a maximum length.
However, the protocol that runs over UTP has a maximum length for performance and technical reasons (such as collision detection in Ethernet).

You're probably talking about Ethernet, and the maximum end-to-end cable length in Ethernet (at least for 100Base-TX, 1000Base-T and 10GBase-T) is 100M.

Assuming you're running full-duplex, you're withing spec (and hence should be fine) as long as no switch-switch or switch-host connection exceeds 100M.

What is the port for HTTPS?

What is the port for HTTPS?

  • Port 434
  • Port 444
  • Port 440
  • Port 443 
 What is the port for HTTPS?

EXPLANATION

HTTPS

(HyperText Transport Protocol Secure) The protocol used to access a secure Web server. When https:// is used as the prefix of a Web address rather than the common http://, the session is managed by a security protocol, typically TLS, which superseded SSL, and the transmission is encrypted to and from the Web server. Increasingly, all websites use HTTPS;
for example, in 2015, Wikipedia switched to HTTPS. For details about the HTTP protocol, see HTTP. To learn about the security protocol, see TLS and security protocol. See HSTS and HTTPS Everywhere.

What is the port for HTTP?

What is the port for HTTP?

  • Port 443
  • Port 225
  • Port 20
  • Port 80 

What is the port for HTTP?

EXPLANATION

Port 443
HTTP Secure is an extension of the Hypertext Transfer Protocol for secure communication over a computer network, and is widely used on the Internet. In HTTPS, the communication protocol is encrypted using Transport Layer Security, or formerly, its predecessor, Secure Sockets Layer. The protocol is therefore also often referred to as HTTP over TLS, or HTTP over SSL.



 Port 80 is the port number assigned to commonly used internet communication protocol, Hypertext Transfer Protocol (HTTP). It is the port from which a computer sends and receives Web client-based communication and messages from a Web server and is used to send and receive HTML pages or data

The default Time-To-Live (TTL) value for IP packets differs based on operating system. What is the default TTL value in Windows?

The default Time-To-Live (TTL) value for IP packets differs based on operating system. What is the default TTL value in Windows?

EXPLANATION

You can find your own TTL value from your self.

RUN->CMD->ping 127.0.0.1

C:\>ping 127.0.0.1

Pinging 127.0.0.1 with 32 bytes of data:
Reply from 127.0.0.1: bytes=32 time<1ms TTL=128
Reply from 127.0.0.1: bytes=32 time<1ms TTL=128
Reply from 127.0.0.1: bytes=32 time<1ms TTL=128
Reply from 127.0.0.1: bytes=32 time<1ms TTL=128

Ping statistics for 127.0.0.1:
    Packets: Sent = 4, Received = 4, Lost = 0 (0% loss),
Approximate round trip times in milli-seconds:
    Minimum = 0ms, Maximum = 0ms, Average = 0ms

C:\>


As you can see from the output, you got the TTL value. Since this website is hosted on a Red Hat system, it returned 57 which is close to 64 (TTL default value of Linux system). So, from this we can understand the OS of the remote system. Here are the default TTL values of different devices / Operating Systems :

What is the correct syntax to run a error fixing check disk in a command prompt?

What is the correct syntax to run a error fixing check disk in a command prompt?

  • chkdsk /f
  • cd
  • ipconfig
  • dir 

EXPLANATION

 The cd command, also known as chdir, is a command-line OS shell command used to change the current working directory in operating systems such as Unix, DOS, OS/2, AmigaOS, Windows, and Linux. It is also available for use in shell scripts and batch files. The system call that affects the command in most operating systems is chdir that is defined by POSIX.



In computing, ipconfig in Microsoft Windows is a console application that displays all current TCP/IP network configuration values and can modify Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol and Domain Name System settings.

In computing, dir is a command used for file and directory listing, specifically in the command line interface of the operating systems CP/M, DOS, OS/2, Singularity, Microsoft Windows and in the DCL command line interface used on VMS, RT-11 and RSX-11. The command is also supplied with OS/8 as a CUSP. 

Checks the file system and file system metadata of a volume for logical and physical errors. If used without parameters, chkdsk displays only the status of the volume and does not fix any errors. If used with the /f, /r, /x, or /b parameters, it fixes errors on the volume.
