Q1 multiple-choice · pattern-a-vs-b Which describes Pattern A multi-site architecture (the most common pattern)?
Source: N03 textbook §1 (Two multi-site patterns).
Explanation: Pattern A — sites operate independently for capture work, share only the cloud + brand discipline. Majority of multi-site customers. Pattern B (live coordination) is rare and engineering-heavy.
Q2 multiple-choice · subnet-templating Across 5 multi-site PhotoRobot studios, what’s the recommended subnet plan?
Source: N03 textbook §2 (Template-based configuration).
Explanation: Same subnet plan at every site is intentional — it makes documentation reusable and reduces per-site configuration drift. Sites are distinguished by site code, not subnet numbering.
Q3 true-false · vpn-pattern-a Pattern A multi-site setups (independent sites + shared cloud) require site-to-site VPN.
Source: N03 textbook §3 (VPN — when needed).
Explanation: Pattern A integrates via PhotoRobot Cloud, which is HTTPS-encrypted by default. No VPN needed for the workflow. Add VPN only if frequent remote admin or compliance requires it.
Q4 multiple-choice · cloud-naming With 3 sites sharing one PhotoRobot Cloud account, what discipline prevents filename collisions?
Source: N03 textbook §4 (Cloud sync — naming convention).
Explanation: Site-prefix in filename guarantees no collision even when sites capture the same SKU. Without prefix, two sites can silently overwrite each other’s images in cloud — silent data loss.
Q5 multiple-choice · dr-uplink-failure A site loses its Internet uplink mid-shoot. What’s the operator’s correct response?
Source: N03 textbook §5 (Disaster recovery — Scenario 1).
Explanation: CAPP is designed for this. Local capture continues; upload queues; resumes automatically when uplink returns. Operator shouldn’t stop — the shoot’s productivity is the priority, the upload backlog is recoverable.
Q6 multiple-choice · capp-licensing What should the Network Specialist verify about CAPP licensing BEFORE designing multi-site architecture?
Source: N03 textbook §6 (CAPP licensing across sites).
Explanation: Per-seat and per-site licensing have very different operational implications. Wrong assumption = surprised when new site opens unlicensed. Always verify the model with PhotoRobot sales before architecting.
Q7 multiple-choice · drift-audit During a quarterly fleet review, you discover site BRN has CAPP version 2.8.2 while the template says 2.8.4. What’s the right action?
Source: N03 textbook §2 (Template-based configuration — drift handling).
Explanation: Drift is either to be corrected (revert to template) or documented (intentional divergence captured in template). Ignoring drift accumulates problems over time; downgrading working sites is counterproductive; not every drift needs Support engagement.
Q8 multiple-choice · dr-cloud-down PhotoRobot Cloud is unreachable for all sites. What changes operationally?
Source: N03 textbook §5 (DR Scenario 5).
Explanation: Cloud sync is asynchronous and resilient — local capture continues, queue retries when cloud is back. Network Specialist’s communication value: tell corporate users about the global cloud issue so they don’t blame each site.
Q9 multiple-choice · photorobot-escalation Which task is most appropriate to engage PhotoRobot Solution Architecture for (rather than DIY Network Specialist work)?
Source: N03 textbook §8 (When to engage PhotoRobot directly).
Explanation: New international site = strategic decision with country-specific complexity (compliance, networking, customs for hardware). Worth PhotoRobot engagement. The other tasks are operational and Network Specialist’s daily work.
Q10 multiple-choice · dr-drill What’s the recommended cadence for DR drills across a multi-site customer?
Source: N03 textbook §5 + Exercise 6 in workbook.
Explanation: Quarterly per-site rotation gives each site annual DR testing. Daily is overkill; annual all-at-once is too infrequent and exhausting. Real incidents test parts of the DR plan but aren’t a substitute for proactive drills.
