Which of the following devices should be placed within a demilitarized zone (DMZ )?
A.
Network switch
B.
Web server
C.
Database server
D.
File/print server
Explanation:
A web server should normally be placed within a demilitarized zone (DMZ) to shield the internal
network. Database and file/print servers may contain confidential or valuable data and should
always be placed on the internal network, never on a DMZ that is subject to compromise. Switches
may bridge a DMZ to another network but do not technically reside within the DMZ network
segment.
