Sample Questions Q1) Which of the following protocols is used as a signaling protocol for the initial connection between hosts, but does not participate in data transfer during the session?

A) NTP B) LDAP C) TFTP D) SIP Answer: D Q2) What is the difference between a port and a socket?

Answer: A port is a number assigned to a process, such as an application or a service, that can receive data. Whereas an IP address is used to find a computer, a port is used to find a process running on that computer. TCP and UDP ports ensure that data is transmitted to the correct process among multiple processes running on the computer.

A socket consists of both a host's IP address and a process's TCP or UDP port, with a colon separating the two values. For example, the standard port for the Telnet service is TCP 23. If a host has an IP address of 10.43.3.87, the socket address for Telnet running on that host is 10.43.3.87:23.
