Easiest question in Section A
Which of the following best describes the function of a firewall:
|
A
|
To provide a gateway for the rest of the network
|
|
B
|
To disallow unwanted traffic into the network and allow wanted traffic
|
|
C
|
To allow users access to the Internet
|
|
D
|
To allow faster transfer of data between the Intranet and the Internet
|
|
E
|
Allow one type of network to connect to another type
|
Every student answered B.
Most difficult question in Section A
How does a node determine the MAC address of a node on another network:
|
A
|
It requests it with an ARP request
|
|
B
|
It does not need it as it uses the network address, and the MAC address of the gateway
|
|
C
|
It does a DNS lookup for the address
|
|
D
|
It sends out a request for the IP address of the node
|
|
E
|
It sends out a broadcast to all the connected networks
|
Most students thought that the answer was A, which is, of course, the correct answer for a local network, but not for an interconnected network.

Marking method:
|
Spreadsheet-based, automatically generated marking. The exam paper was marked using a strict marking schedule, which calculated marks automatically for Section A and Section B. Comments:
Section A
Students gained a single mark for a correct answer, zero marks (if there is such as thing) for a non-completion, and -0.25 marks for an incorrect answer.
Section B
Students were not penalised for an incorrect answer, and gained marks for an answer that was nearly correct (or made a reasonable attempt at the question). The rules for this were fixed for everyone.
Section C
This section contained two essay-type questions. It is difficult to create a standardized mechanistic marking schedule for this, but the questions were marked fairly using key essay points, and key pointers to good technical writing style (such as focused arguments, clear use of English, correct level of detail, and so on). Surprisingly this section contained the largest deviation in marks.

Student feedback :
|
|

Advice given on module requirement in an email to all students:
Pass. Average of 40% with at least 30%
in each element (coursework and examination). A student who just misses these requirements may be granted a condone pass at the Module Board.
Condone Pass. The Programme Board may grant a pass to a student, taking into account other circumstances, such as medical evidence, performance in other modules, and so on.

|
Post-exam student support:
|
|

|
Marks, and summary of exam questions freely available to students, if required.
|
|
