Sign Up To Use This TestThe Network administrator/network engineer test assesses a candidate’s knowledge of maintaining computer infrastructures, software-network interactions, as well as network integrity/resilience.
It's ideal for pre-employment screening. All good network administrators and network engineers should be familiar with the networking technologies used to allow communication between devices and form the backbone of the Internet.
This online test requires candidates to answer multiple-choice and fill the blanks questions about networking protocols, networking infrastructure, and the Internet.

Network Administration
Network administration is the process of managing and maintaining the infrastructure of computer networks. These tasks are usually done by a network administrator/network engineer. Software-network interactions as well as network integrity and resilience are the key areas of focus.
Application layer
The application layer (Layer 7) is one of the seven layers of the Open Systems Interconnection model (OSI model). It is closest to the end user, which means both the OSI application layer and the user interact directly with the software application.
IP
The Internet Protocol is the principal communications protocol used by the Internet. IP provides the mechanism for delivering packets from source to host computers based on their IP addresses. As the dominant communication protocol used by the internet, it's important for all developers to have a solid understanding of its features.
Network security
Everyone who works with web should know essential topics of network security to prevent unauthorized access or misuse of network-accessible resources.
Public
Public questions (free account) are common interview questions. They are great for practicing, or if you want to filter candidates using the classic problems.
Select the methods that can be used to hide your public IP address when making calls to a remote server over the internet.

DNS
The Domain Name System is a hierarchical decentralized naming system for computers, services, or other network-connected devices. As an important feature of the internet, it's important for all engineers to have a solid understanding of this.
MX Record
A mail exchanger record (MX record) specifies the mail server responsible for accepting email messages on behalf of a domain name. It is a resource record in the Domain Name System (DNS). Network Engineers working with DNS configurations need to have knowledge of DNS records.

This is a new addition to our question library.
The email service provider has provided only an IP address for the TestDome email server - 192.0.2.0. TestDome owns the domain 'testdome.com'. Fill in the blanks for the correct DNS configuration, so that 'mail.testdome.com' points to the email server.

Network layer
The network layer (Layer 3) is one of the seven layers of the Open Systems Interconnection model (OSI model). It provides the functional and procedural means of transferring variable length data sequences (called packets) from one node to another.
Protocol
A protocol defines a set of rules which allows communication between entities. Communication between devices on the Internet is based on multiple protocols. It's an important theoretical topic for all engineers, particularly those involved in communication protocols.
Network security
Everyone who works with web should know essential topics of network security to prevent unauthorized access or misuse of network-accessible resources.
Presentation layer
The presentation layer (Layer 6) is one of the seven layers of the Open Systems Interconnection model (OSI model). This layer provides independence from data representation by translating between application and network formats.
Routing
Routing is the process of selecting a path for traffic in a network, or between or across multiple networks. Knowledge of routing and related protocols is essential for Network Engineers.
Routing Table
In computer networking a routing table, or routing information base (RIB), is a data table stored in a router or a network host that lists the routes to particular network destinations, and in some cases, metrics (distances) associated with those routes. Knowledge of routing tables is important for Network Engineers.
