Answer : 4. "virtual Private Network "
Explanation :

 A Virtual Private Network (VPN) is a technology that allows users to create a secure and encrypted connection to another network over the internet. VPNs are commonly used to ensure privacy and security when browsing the internet, especially when using public Wi-Fi networks. VPNs create a private tunnel for data transmission, protecting users' online activities from surveillance, censorship, and potential cyber threats.

Answer : 3. "fiber"
Explanation :

It seems there might be a confusion in your question. If you are referring to the technology used for transmitting data using modulated light, the term you are looking for is "fiber optic cable" or simply "fiber." Fiber optic cables are thin, flexible strands of glass or plastic that transmit data as modulated light pulses. They are widely used for high-speed data transmission over long distances due to their ability to carry large amounts of data with low attenuation and high bandwidth capabilities.

Answer : 4. "All of the above"
Explanation :

All three components—COAX (coaxial cables), Fiber (optical fiber cables), and STP (shielded twisted pair cables)—can be used in LANs for Ethernet connectivity, depending on specific network requirements and conditions. Different types of Ethernet cables, including coaxial, fiber optic, and shielded twisted pair, are used based on factors such as data transfer speed, distance, and susceptibility to electromagnetic interference.


Q:

Which device is designed to send packets using package addresses?

Answer : 2. "switching hub"
Explanation :

A switching hub, also known as a network switch, is designed to send packets using package addresses. A network switch operates at the data link layer of the OSI model and uses MAC addresses to forward data frames to specific devices within a local area network (LAN). Unlike a hub, which simply broadcasts data to all devices in the network, a switch intelligently forwards packets only to the device intended to receive the data, increasing network efficiency and reducing unnecessary network traffic.

Answer : 4. "None of these"
Explanation :

1. There are two types of VGA cables: 14-pin and 15-pin. 14-pin cables will work in most applications, but wider display compatibility may require a 15-pin cable.

Answer : 4. "All of the above "
Explanation :

The search engine performs the following tasks-

1. Web crawling: Search engines search all web pages on the web using a crawler. A crawler is a program that finds new web pages by following links on the web.

2. Indexing: Once the crawler finds all the web pages, the search engine indexes them in a database. The index contains information for each web page, such as title, URL, and content.

3. Searching: When a user types a search query, the search engine searches all the web pages in the index that may be related to the query.
