Makes sense, but I always thought Telnet was TCP-based.

Yup, RARP is a link layer protocol, not TCP.

Wait, are we sure about that? I thought all protocols used TCP!

Totally agree, RARP is all about resolving addresses.

RARP doesn't use TCP, it's a different layer!

I vaguely recall that RARP is used for different purposes than the others listed. I think it’s more about network layer functions, not application layer like the others.

I feel like RARP is more about resolving addresses rather than establishing connections, so it makes sense that it wouldn't use TCP. But I could be wrong.

I think I practiced a similar question where we had to identify protocols that use TCP. HTTP, SMTP, and Telnet definitely do, so I guess RARP is the odd one out here.

I remember studying that TCP is used by many application layer protocols, but I'm not sure about RARP. Does it even operate at the same layer?

I'm a bit confused by the wording of this question. I'll need to double-check my notes to make sure I understand the differences between the HXDP versions mentioned.

A "world class toolset" seems like it would be important for effective cross-functional team management, so I'm going to go with that as the answer.

Hmm, I'm a bit unsure about this one. The options seem a bit tricky - biometrics, anonymous, mutual, and multi-factor. I'll need to think this through carefully.
