1. Answers A and B are correct.
DDR (Dial on Demand Routing) is by its nature an event driven technology that
relies on certain conditions to initiate connectivity, otherwise known as "interesting
traffic". Low volume, periodic, on-demand traffic is ideal for a DDR solution.
The term "interesting traffic" means that when traffic meeting a pre-determined
"type" or "load" is seen by the router, it knows that an
ISDN call is warranted to pass that traffic to its destination. Any other form
of network traffic not deemed "interesting" will not prompt the router
to initiate a call. Since DDR (via ISDN) has the potential to result in costly
ISDN calls, you want to carefully control the events that result in the ISDN
routing invoking a connection attempt.
The other options requiring constant connectivity and/or high bandwidth are
incorrect because ISDN constant connectivity is too expensive (especially since
DSL is so widely available and much cheaper), and the bandwidth is too low to
support high bandwidth.
2. Answer A is correct. A bridge filters
a frame after referring to the bridging table and discovering that the source
MAC and the destination MAC are on the same segment.
Bridges do not look at Layer 3 addresses; they are concerned only with Layer
2 Addresses (MAC addresses), which eliminates any choices that reference an
IP Address. IP Addresses are defined at Layer 3.
If the location of a MAC address is not known, the frame is forwarded on all
ports just like a switch. A switch after all is just a multiport bridge.
3. Answer B is correct. The enterprise
edge functional area filters traffic from modules at the edge and routes the
packets into the enterprise campus.
The enterprise campus functional area contains all the elements for the network
for independent operation within a campus network.
The service provider edge functional area enables communication with other
networks that use different WAN technologies.
The Internet connectivity model is a module of the enterprise edge functional
area, and it provides Internet access to the users in the enterprise.
4. Answer C is correct. The service
provider edge functional area enables communication with other networks that
use different WAN technologies.
The enterprise campus functional area contains all the elements for the network
for independent operation within a campus network.
The enterprise edge functional area filters traffic from modules at the edge
and routes the packets into the enterprise campus.
The Internet connectivity model is a module of the enterprise edge functional
area, and it provides Internet access to the users in the enterprise.
5. Answer A is correct. Leased lines

data using digital signal technology.
