Three of the 414 questions in this pack

Question 1

A technician needs to provide remote support for a legacy Linux-based operating system from their Windows laptop. The solution needs to allow the technician to see what the user is doing and provide the ability to interact with the user's session. Which of the following remote access technologies would support the use case?

  1. VPN
  2. VNC
  3. SSH
  4. RDP
Show answer and explanation

Correct answer: B. VNC

VNC (Virtual Network Computing) is the correct choice because it provides remote desktop access with GUI interaction capabilities, allowing the technician to see the user's screen and control the session. VNC works cross-platform, making it ideal for connecting from Windows to Linux systems. While SSH provides secure remote access, it is command-line only and does not provide the visual interaction required. VPN only encrypts network traffic but does not provide remote desktop capabilities. RDP is Windows-specific and would not natively support legacy Linux systems.

Why the other options are wrong

  • A. VPN only provides encrypted network connectivity, not remote desktop or session interaction.
  • C. SSH provides command-line access only, not the GUI visual interaction and control needed.
  • D. RDP is designed for Windows systems and does not natively support Linux operating systems.

Question 2

A network technician notices that most of the company's network switches are now end-of-life and need to be upgraded. Which of the following should the technician do first?

  1. Implement the change.
  2. Approve the change.
  3. Propose the change.
  4. Schedule the change.
Show answer and explanation

Correct answer: C. Propose the change.

Proposing the change is the first step in proper change management procedures. Before any approval, scheduling, or implementation can occur, the technician must formally propose the change to document the need, scope, and justification for upgrading the end-of-life switches. This establishes the change request that will then go through approval and scheduling workflows.

Why the other options are wrong

  • A. Implementation cannot occur first; changes must be proposed, approved, and scheduled before implementation.
  • B. Approval comes after the change has been proposed and documented.
  • D. Scheduling occurs after the change is proposed and approved, not before.

Question 3

MFA for a custom web application on a user's smartphone is no longer working. The last time the user remembered it working was before taking a vacation to another country. Which of the following should the technician do first?

  1. Verify the date and time settings.
  2. Apply mobile OS patches.
  3. Uninstall and reinstall the application.
  4. Escalate to the website developer.
Show answer and explanation

Correct answer: A. Verify the date and time settings.

Verifying the date and time settings is the correct first step because MFA systems, particularly time-based authentication methods like TOTP, are highly sensitive to device time synchronization. When the user traveled to another country, their device may have retained the original timezone or incorrect time, causing MFA tokens to become invalid. This is a simple check that often resolves authentication issues before attempting more complex troubleshooting steps.

Why the other options are wrong

  • B. Mobile OS patches may help but are not the first troubleshooting step for a time-sensitive MFA issue.
  • C. Reinstalling the application is premature without checking basic time synchronization first.
  • D. Escalation to the developer should occur only after basic troubleshooting steps have been exhausted.

What makes the 220-1202 hard

Core 2 is where candidates get caught out after already clearing 220-1201. The operating systems domain covers Windows, macOS, Linux, Android and Chrome OS. The security domain is worth 28% of the exam and includes malware removal procedures, BitLocker, UAC and workstation hardening.

The software troubleshooting domain is scenario-heavy, and on top of the multiple choice questions there are performance-based questions that put you in a simulated environment and ask you to solve a real problem. This pack has 414 practice questions for the 220-1202, every MCQ and PBQ, so those formats are familiar before you walk in.
