What command can be used to check a domain computer's time source from a Command Prompt window? w32tm /query /source
A Windows computer on your network is having issues resolving queries for a specific domain, but not other domains. Other computers on the same network resolve the name just fine. What command can you issue that might fix the problem? ipconfig /flushdns
In the DNS hierarchy, where is information about how to find the top-level domain servers held? On the DNS root servers.
T/F: UDP provides error checking, but not sequencing. False
T/F: IP is an unreliable, connectionless protocol, as it does not establish a session to send its packets. True
T/F: IPv4 and IPv6 use the same packet format. False
T/F: TCP uses a four-step process called a four-way handshake to establish a TCP connection. False

T/F: The Border Gateway Protocol is considered to be a hybrid routing protocol. True
T/F: The pathping utility sends 10 pings per hop by default. False
T/F: The CTRL + S key combination can be used to stop an actively running command False
