This test is about 10 years outdated, but if you know networks (even a little) it is can be easily passed....especially for the old folk like myself.
OSI model - know it inside out and know what protocols fall into what layers. I had no less than 15 questions on what layer IPX is in...what layer TCP is, Ethernet falls in what layer, what part of TCP/IP is comparable to SPX as it relates to the OSI layer, etc.
Thicknet.....yeah....Thicknet...What it is, what cables it runs on etc.
Token Ring - Are there collisions? If you have dual rings what direction do the tokens go? (same or opposite)
Did I mention thicknet? ugh...
Different types of cabling - what does fddi run on, etc.
Very doable test
