It uses TCP as the Transport layer protocol.
It does not use a layer 2 destination address.
A. 1 only
B. 1 and 2

Explanation:
A client that sends out a DHCP Discover message in order to receive an IP address sends out a broadcast at both layer 2 and layer 3. The layer 2 broadcast is all Fs in hex, or FF:FF:FF:FF:FF:FF. The layer 3 broadcast is 255.255.255.255, which means all networks and all hosts. DHCP is connectionless, which means it uses User Datagram Protocol (UDP) at the Transport layer, also called the Host-to-Host layer.

68. Which of the following is the decimal and hexadecimal equivalents of the binary number 10011101?
A. 155, 0x9B
B. 157, 0x9D
C. 159, 0x9F
D. 185, 0xB9
Explanation:
To turn a binary number into decimal, you just have to add the values of each bit that is a 1. The values of 10011101 are 128, 16, 8, 4, and 1. 128 + 16 + 8 + 4 + 1 = 157.
Hexadecimal is a base-16 number system. The values of hexadecimal are 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, A, B, C, D, E, F-16 characters total, from which to create all the numbers you'll ever need. So, if 1001 in binary is 9, then the hexadecimal equivalent is 9. Since we then have 1101, which is 13 in binary, the hexadecimal answer is D and the complete hexadecimal answer is 0x9D.

C. 3 and 4
D. 2, 3 and 4
Explanation:
Internet Control Message Protocol (ICMP) is used to send error messages through the network, but they do not work alone. Every segment or ICMP payload must be encapsulated within an IP datagram (or packet).

Application
Session
Transport
Internet
Data Link
Physical
A. 1 and 2
B. 1, 3 and 4
C. 2, 3 and 5
D. 3, 4 and 5
Explanation:
This seems like a hard question at first because it doesn't make sense. The listed answers are from the OSI model and the question asked about the TCP/IP protocol stack (DoD model). However, let's just look for what is wrong. First, the Session layer is not in the TCP/IP model; neither are the Data Link and Physical layers. This leaves us with the Transport layer (Host-to-Host in the DoD model), Internet layer (Network layer in the OSI), and Application layer (Application/Process in the DoD).
71. Which layer 4 protocol is used for a Telnet connection?
A. IP
B. TCP

ICMP is encapsulated within UDP datagrams.
A. 1 only
B. 2 and 3
C. 1 and 4
