Chapter 12. Miscellaneous IP Services

This chapter covers the following exam topics:

3.0 IP Connectivity

3.5 Describe the purpose of First Hop Redundancy Protocol

4.0 Infrastructure Services

4.4 Explain the function of SNMP in network operations

4.9 Describe the capabilities and function of TFTP/FTP in the network

When reading this chapter, think of it as three separate small topics rather than one large topic. The content just happens to include a few IP-based services that have little to do with each other, but the length of coverage of each topic is too short to justify a separate chapter. The result: Chapter 12, “Miscellaneous IP Services.” So when reading, feel free to treat each of the three major headings as a separate study event.
