You are replacing a computer in an office. The existing computer has been connected to a TCP/IP network, and you want to use the existing network card in the new computer.
Which configuration settings would you have to set in the new computer? (Select THREE.)
1. MAC address
2. >>Default gateway
3. Network media
4. Subnet Mask
5. >>Network access method
6. Network topology
7. >>IP address
Explanation : Since the old computer was connected to a Transmission Control Protocol/Internet Protocol (TCP/IP) network, TCP/IP needs to be configured on the new computer. The IP address is the unique network client identification address. The default gateway is the network address of the local router interface, and the Subnet Mask is used to determine whether data packets are destined for local or remote hosts. All of these need to be configured and/or assigned to the network card.
The Media Access Control (MAC) address is the physical address of the network card. It is programmed into the card by the manufacturer and is not changeable.
The network topology refers to the configuration of the network (ring, bus, star, star-bus, etc.). These are not system settings.
The network media refers to the type of cable used (10Base-T, 10Base-2, Fiber, etc.).
The Network access method (for example, Carrier Sense-Multiple Access with Collision Detection or CSMA/CD) is determined by the type of network in use. You are using the existing card, so it already matched the type of network in use.
