220-1101 Exam Dumps - CompTIA A+ Certification Exam: Core 1

Reinstalling RAM in different slots addresses possible issues with dual-channel configurations. If not installed correctly, the system might not recognize the full capacity. This solution is immediate and doesn’t incur extra costs, unlike replacing hardware. It reflects CompTIA A+ Core 1 exam objectives on hardware troubleshooting, specifically RAM installation and configuration​.

A sandbox in virtualization allows testing an application in an isolated environment to observe its behavior without affecting the host system.

Why Not A (Run an application on multiple workstations): This describes application virtualization, not sandboxing.

Why Not C (Migrate a legacy application): This is about virtualization for legacy support, not testing.

Why Not D (Create a firewall): A firewall does not act as a sandbox for application testing.

CompTIA A+ Exam Reference: Core 1 (220-1101), Section 4.2, virtualization and sandboxing​.

Duplex printing allows printing on both sides of a paper, which can significantly reduce paper consumption and costs associated with buying paper. This makes duplex printing the best feature for cutting costs on consumables.

CompTIA A+ Core 1 Exam Objectives Section 3.6: Given a scenario, deploy and configure multifunction devices/printers and settings.

DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol) is the service used to automatically assign IP addresses to network hosts. It dynamically manages the distribution of IP addresses and configuration details (like subnet mask, gateway, and DNS servers), ensuring no two devices are assigned the same address on the network.

Option B (DNS): Incorrect. DNS translates domain names into IP addresses but does not assign them.

Option C (LDAP): Incorrect. LDAP is a protocol used for accessing and maintaining directory services, such as user information and permissions.

Option D (SMTP): Incorrect. SMTP is used for sending and receiving email, not for IP address assignment.

After setting up a RAID 5 array, the next step is to make the storage space usable by the operating system. This involves partitioning the array to define how the storage space is organized and then formatting it with a file system that the operating system can understand, thus making it possible to copy files to the array. Decreasing the number of drives, rebuilding the array, or checking the hot spare status would not address the issue of the array not being ready to store files.

Removing unnecessary applications frees up storage and processing power, which may allow the device to sync data more effectively. Data caps, Preferred Roaming List settings, and Bluetooth discovery are unrelated to syncing large datasets in cloud storage, as noted in CompTIA A+ Core 1 objectives on mobile device troubleshooting.

The best tool to identify the correct cable is C. Toner probe.

A toner probe is a device that can be used to locate and trace a specific cable within a network rack or a wall outlet. A toner probe consists of two parts: a tone generator and a tone detector. The tone generator is connected to one end of the cable and sends an audible signal through the cable. The tone detector is used to scan the other end of the cable and pick up the signal. The tone detector emits a sound or a light when it detects the signal, indicating the correct cable.

A toner probe can be useful for network technicians who need to locate an end user’s Cat 6 cable within a network rack that is poorly documented and has no cable management system. A Cat 6 cable is a type of twisted pair cable that can support high-speed data transmission over Ethernet networks. A network rack is a frame that holds network equipment, such as servers, switches, routers, or patch panels. A cable management system is a set of devices or methods that organize and secure the cables within a network rack .

The other options are not the best tools to identify the correct cable, because they have different purposes or limitations. A cable tester (option A) is a device that can be used to test the functionality and quality of a cable, such as its continuity, resistance, or interference. A cable tester can help diagnose and troubleshoot faulty cables, but it cannot locate or trace specific cables within a network rack. A network tap (option B) is a device that can be used to monitor and analyze the traffic and data that pass through a network. A network tap can help capture and inspect network packets, but it cannot locate or trace specific cables within a network rack. A loopback plug (option D) is a device that can be used to test the functionality and connectivity of a port or an interface. A loopback plug can help verify if a port or an interface is working properly, but it cannot locate or trace specific cables within a network rack.

A network tap (Test Access Point) is a device used for monitoring network traffic. It allows the technician to passively observe the traffic between two network nodes in real-time without introducing latency or affecting the network's performance. By using a network tap, the technician can analyze the data packets flowing through the network to identify if packet loss is occurring, which could be contributing to the slow network traffic in the branch office.

References: Network taps are widely recognized in the field of network troubleshooting and monitoring for their ability to provide a mirror of the traffic that can be analyzed for issues such as packet loss.
