Question 1 of 15
1. Question
2 pointsWhat are two ways that network operating systems (NOS) differ from desktop operating systems? (Choose two.)Correct
Incorrect
Network operating systems, sometimes called server operating systems, are designed to support many users who connect to a server over a network. Many network users can access storage and printer resources and can run multiuser applications at the same time. Desktop operating systems can support a limited number of users who access shared resources. However, security and user management functionality is limited. So while desktop operating systems have limited network sharing capabilities, most businesses will require the use of a network operating system for serious business use.

14. Question
2 pointsWhat are two types of computer user interface? (Choose two.)Correct
Incorrect
Two types of computer operating system user interfaces are CLI and GUI. CLI stands for command-line interface. In a command-line interface, a user enters commands at a prompt using a keyboard.

A mouse, finger, or stylus can be used to interact with a GUI. PnP is the name of a process by which an OS assigns resources to different hardware components of a computer. The other answers are examples of Application Programming Interfaces, or APIs.
