The parameter net.ipv4.ip_forward=1 will accomplish the goal of setting up a new Linux server as a router. This parameter enables the IP forwarding feature, which allows the server to forward packets between different network interfaces. This is necessary for a router to route traffic between different networks. The parameter can be set in the /etc/sysctl.conf file or by using the sysctl command. This is the correct parameter to use to accomplish the goal. The other options are incorrect because they either do not exist (net.ipv4.ip_forwarding or net.ipv4.ip_route) or do not enable IP forwarding (net.ipv4.ip_forward=0). References: CompTIA Linux+ (XK0-005) Certification Study Guide, Chapter 12: Managing Network Connections, page 382.

"modify the /etc/fstab text file to automatically mount the new partition by opening it in an editor and adding the following line:

/dev/ xxx 1 /data ext4 defaults 1 2

where xxx is the device name of the storage device"

To configure a new filesystem that needs the capability to be mounted persistently across reboots, two commands are needed: mkfs.ext4 /dev/sdc1 and echo “/dev/sdc1 /data ext4 defaults 0 0” >> /etc/fstab. The first command creates an ext4 filesystem on the device /dev/sdc1, which is the partition that will be used for the new filesystem. The second command appends a line to the /etc/fstab file, which is the configuration file that controls persistent mount points of filesystems. The line specifies the device name, the mount point (/data), the filesystem type (ext4), the mount options (defaults), and the dump and pass values (0 0). The other commands are incorrect because they either do not create or configure a filesystem, or they have wrong syntax or arguments.

The mount /dev/sdb1 /media/usb command will mount the USB drive to /media/usb. This command will attach the filesystem on the first partition of the USB drive (/dev/sdb1) to the mount point /media/usb, making it accessible to the system. The mount /dev/sdb0 /media/usb command is invalid, as there is no such device as /dev/sdb0. The mount /dev/sdb /media/usb command is incorrect, as it will try to mount the entire USB drive instead of its partition, which may cause errors or data loss. The mount -t usb /dev/sdb1 /media/usb command is incorrect, as usb is not a valid filesystem type for mount. References: CompTIA Linux+ (XK0-005) Certification Study Guide, Chapter 14: Managing Disk Storage, page 455.

The command that would allow this to happen is docker pull nginx. Docker is a software platform that allows the administrator to create, run, and manage containers on Linux systems. Containers are isolated and lightweight environments that can run applications and services without affecting the host system. Docker uses images to create containers, which are files that contain the code, libraries, dependencies, and configuration of the applications and services. Docker uses a registry to store and distribute images, which is a service that hosts and serves images. Docker Hub is the default public registry that provides a large number of official and community images. Nginx is a popular web server and reverse proxy that can run as a container. The command docker pull nginx will download the latest version of the Nginx image from the Docker Hub registry to the local cache, which is the storage location for the images on the host system. This will allow the administrator to provide a new Nginx image from the registry to the local cache. This is the correct command to use to accomplish the task. The other options are incorrect because they either do not download an image from the registry (docker attach nginx or docker commit nginx) or do not exist (docker import nginx). References: CompTIA Linux+ (XK0-005) Certification Study Guide, Chapter 19: Managing Cloud and Virtualization Technologies, page 571.
