CompTIA Updated N10-009 Exam Questions and Answers by teodor

When high-bandwidth services like videoconferencing are introduced, two primary factors may degrade performance:

Incorrect QoS Settings (E):QoS (Quality of Service) is used to prioritize traffic. If not configured correctly, critical services like video may not get the necessary bandwidth and prioritization.

Network Congestion (F):Video services consume large amounts of data. If the network doesn’t have sufficient bandwidth or is not segmented properly, congestion will slow down all services.

DNS misconfiguration (A) would affect name resolution, not bandwidth.

Malware (C) could degrade performance, but is not tied to the described scenario.

Outdated software (D) may affect performance in some cases, but not directly linked to network congestion in this case.

Inadequate network security (B) isn't likely to cause general slowness related to video traffic.

✅ So, the most likely culprits are E. Incorrect QoS settings and F. Network congestion.

GDPR (General Data Protection Regulation)is alegal frameworkenforced by the European Union to protect personal data and privacy. Unlike internal organizational policies such as AUPs or codes of conduct, GDPR is alegislated regulation, and organizations must comply or face legal consequences.

To change where the outside DNS records are hosted, the network administrator needs to update the NS (Name Server) records at the domain registrar. NS records specify the authoritative name servers for a domain, directing where DNS queries should be sent.

NS (Name Server) Records: These records indicate the servers that are authoritative for a domain. Changing the NS records at the registrar points DNS resolution to the new hosting provider.

SOA (Start of Authority): Contains administrative information about the domain, including the primary name server.

PTR (Pointer) Records: Used for reverse DNS lookups, mapping IP addresses to domain names.

CNAME (Canonical Name) Records: Used to alias one domain name to another, not relevant for changing DNS hosting.

If the IP phone works but the workstation doesn't, it indicates that the Voice VLAN is functioning correctly, but the Data VLAN (C) is either misconfigured or missing. The workstation typically connects through the phone, which tags voice and data traffic separately using VLANs.

A. Voice VLAN is for the IP phone, which is already working.

B. Native VLAN is for untagged traffic on trunk ports, but doesn’t control access directly.

D. Trunk port is more relevant to switch interconnections than individual workstation ports.
