This question is useful when you are trying to assess the level of experience of a candidate who claims to have "some" experience with Cisco router configurations. A candidate with even a minimum amount of router monitoring experience or some actual router interface configuration experience should be able to answer this question. The question also allows you to gauge if the candidate understands the basics of IP subnetting.

The following question assesses experience with intermediate to advanced SQL techniques and should be asked of candidates that are DBAs, Database developers and anyone using SQL. It is best suited for developers and Database Administrators having at least a year of solid experience with SQL. The techniques applied are useful in a variety of situations and should be known to everyone using SQL.

This question is designed to gauge a candidate's understanding of HTTP cookies and their role in web applications. It has several levels of answers, and would be appropriate for any developer building web applications of any complexity beyond straight HTML. This question is not geared toward any specific API for working with cookies, but rather the nature and capabilities of the protocol itself as it relates to web application design.
