Answer / guest
Answer: A
An IP address, specifies a network connection. An IP address
encodes both a network and a host on that network, it does
not specify an individual computer, but a connection to a
network. A router/gateway connects two networks and will
have two IP addresses. Hence, an IP address cannot specify a
router. A computer in the network can be connected to other
networks as well. It will then use many IP addresses. Such
computers are called multi-homed hosts. Here again an IP
address cannot refer to the computer. IP addresses do not
refer to individual devices on the network, but refer to the
connections by which they are connected to the network.

An IS auditor conducting a review of disaster recovery planning at a financial processing organization has discovered the following: * The existing disaster recovery plan was compiled two years ago by a systems analyst in the organization's IT department using transaction flow projections from the operations department. * The plan was presented to the deputy CEO for approval and formal issue, but it is still awaiting his attention. * The plan has never been updated, tested or circulated to key management and staff, though interviews show that each would know what action to take for their area in the event of a disruptive incident.

C. perform a review to verify that the second configuration can support live processing. D. report that the financial expenditure on the alternative site is wasted without an effective plan.
