A Cisco router can have multiple connections to networks. These connections are known as interfaces for Cisco Routers. For naming each interface, Cisco generally uses the type of interface as part of the name.

Following are some of the naming conventions of Cisco Router interfaces:

An Ethernet interface that is fast always starts with an F.

An interface connected to a serial connection always starts with an S.

An interface connected to an Ethernet segment of the network always starts with an E.

An interface connected to a Token Ring segment always starts with To.

D is definitely right, but I'm not so sure about B. Isn't Token Ring kind of outdated these days?

Haha, 'To' for Token Ring? That's a blast from the past! Anyway, I think A, C, and D are the correct answers.

I'd go with A, C, and D. Ethernet interfaces should start with 'En', right?

A and C seem legit. I'm pretty sure the 'F' in 'Fast Ethernet' stands for 'Fast'.

Yeah, I'm not convinced about B and D either. 'To' and 'En' don't sound right.

I'm not sure about B and D though. 'To' for Token Ring and 'En' for Ethernet?
