Systems Security Certified Practitioner – SSCP – Question0989
All hosts on an IP network have a logical ID called a(n): A. IP address. B. MAC address. C. TCP address. D. Datagram address.
Correct Answer: A
Explanation:
All hosts on a network have a logical ID that is called an IP address. An IP address is a numeric identifier that is assigned to each machine on an IP network. It designates the location of a device on a network. A MAC address is typically called a hardware address because it is “burned” into the NIC card. TCP address and Datagram address are imposter answers.
