1 Data is being sent from a source PC to a destination server. Which three statements correctly describe the function of TCP or UDP in this situation? (Choose three.)

1. The UDP destination port number identifies the application or service on the server which will handle the data.

2. TCP is the preferred protocol when a function requires lower network overhead.

3. UDP segments are encapsulated within IP packets for transport across the network.

4. The source port field identifies the running application or service that will handle data returning to the PC.

5. The TCP source port number identifies the sending host on the network.

6. The TCP process running on the PC randomly selects the destination port when establishing a session with the server.

Host A sends an ARP request to the MAC address of host D.Host D sends an ARP request to host A.Host A sends out the packet to the switch. The switch sends the packet only to the host D, which in turn responds.Host A sends out a broadcast of FF:FF:FF:FF:FF:FF. Every other host connected to the switch receives the broadcast and host D responds with its MAC address.
