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

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.

When installing a printer on a network, the technician needs to configure the network settings, which include the IP address, subnet mask, and gateway. These settings are used to ensure that the printer can communicate with other devices on the network.

When installing a printer on a network, the technician must configure the network settings of the printer to ensure that it can communicate with other devices on the network. This includes configuring the gateway, subnet mask and IP address of the printer.

The gateway is the device that connects the local network to other networks or the Internet. The subnet mask is used to determine which part of an IP address represents the network and which part represents individual hosts on that network. The IP address is a unique identifier for each device on a network.

Older motherboards use 20-pin connectors, while newer power supplies use 24-pin connectors. An adapter resolves the compatibility issue cost-effectively.

Why Not A (Adjust the input voltage): Input voltage adjustment is unrelated to connector compatibility.

Why Not B (Install a modular power supply): While modular supplies are versatile, this doesn’t address the connector issue directly.

Why Not C (Rebuild the failed power supply): Rebuilding is costly and complex compared to using an adapter.

PaaS (Platform as a Service) is a cloud computing model in which a provider offers a platform that allows developers to create, run, and manage applications without the complexity of building and maintaining the infrastructure. An application development environment is a valid use for PaaS. References: CompTIA A+ Certification Exam Objectives 1001, 1.7

Comprehensive and Detailed In-Depth Explanation:

Upgrading to a solid-state drive (SSD) provides more storage space and faster read/write speeds, which resolves both the “insufficient storage” error and slow application loads.

Option B (USB): Not intended for permanent application storage or performance improvements.

Option C (HDD): Could solve storage capacity but would not improve speed.

Option D (RAM): Affects multitasking and memory-intensive tasks, not storage capacity directly.

CompTIA A+ Core 1 Exam Objective Reference:

Objective 3.5: Given a scenario, troubleshoot problems related to storage devices.

Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) is a network service used to automatically assign IP addresses and other network configuration details (such as subnet masks and default gateways) to devices on an enterprise-wide network.

Why Not A (DNS): DNS resolves domain names to IP addresses but does not allocate IP addresses.

Why Not B (Syslog): Syslog is used for logging system events, not IP address management.

Why Not C (Telnet): Telnet is a protocol for remote access, not for IP allocation.

CompTIA A+ Exam Reference: Core 1 (220-1101), Section 2.6, DHCP concepts​.

DNS stands for Domain Name System, and it is a network service that translates human-readable names (such as www.google.com) into numerical IP addresses (such as 172.217.14.206) that identify the location of the web servers on the internet. DNS also allows reverse lookup, which means finding the domain name associated with a given IP address. DNS servers are responsible for maintaining a database of domain names and their corresponding IP addresses, and responding to queries from clients who want to resolve a name to an address or vice versa12.

DHCP stands for Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol, and it is a network service that automatically assigns IP addresses and other network configuration parameters (such as subnet mask, default gateway, DNS server, etc.) to devices that join a network. DHCP servers are responsible for managing a pool of IP addresses and leasing them to clients for a specified duration. DHCP servers also renew or release the IP addresses when the lease expires or the client disconnects from the network34.

The difference between DNS and DHCP is that DNS is used for address translation, which means converting domain names to IP addresses and vice versa, while DHCP is used for IP address assignment, which means providing IP addresses and other network settings to devices that need to communicate on a network.

Clicking and grinding noises indicate mechanical drive failure.

SMART data provides insights into the health and status of drives, helping identify failing components in the RAID array.

Why Not A (Run a magnet): This would damage drives.

Why Not B (Check if one drive is not level): Physical leveling is irrelevant.

Why Not D (Check OS logs): OS logs may provide limited information for RAID arrays.

Why Not E (Update RAID controller firmware): While important, it does not diagnose drive failure.
