This document contains exam questions for a Diploma in Computer Engineering exam on the subject of computer networks. The exam contains multiple choice and descriptive questions. The questions cover topics like the OSI reference model, network devices, transmission media, data link layer functions, LAN architectures, routing, routing protocols, transport layer duties, subnetting, and short answer questions on topics like DHCP, encryption/decryption, firewalls, DNS, TCP vs UDP, and more. The format of the exam has changed between 2070 and 2073, with 2073 requiring fewer questions to be answered and some questions containing multiple parts.
