Comprehensive and Detailed Explanation (aligned to N10-009):

A broadcast message is delivered to all nodes in a broadcast domain (e.g., ARP requests).

A. Unicast is one-to-one.

C. Multicast is one-to-many but only to subscribed members.

D. Anycast is one-to-one-of-many, sending to the nearest node.

Domain: Networking Concepts — Traffic types: unicast, multicast, broadcast, anycast.

Elasticity is the ability of a system (often in cloud environments) to automatically scale resources up or down in real time based on demand.

A. Scalability means the ability to grow over time but not necessarily dynamically.

B. SaaS is a service model, not a resource-allocation concept.

C. Hybrid cloud is a deployment model, not a performance behavior.

SSH (Secure Shell) is a cryptographic network protocol that enables secure remote management and operation of network devices, including routers and switches. SSH encrypts traffic, making it more secure than alternatives like Telnet, which sends data in plaintext. The document states:

“SSH (Secure Shell) is the recommended protocol for secure, interactive remote management of network devices. It provides a secure channel over an unsecured network by encrypting the traffic between the administrator’s workstation and the managed device.”

RADIUS (Remote Authentication Dial-In User Service) is a networking protocol that provides centralized Authentication, Authorization, and Accounting (AAA) management for users who connect and use a network service. RADIUS is often used to manage access to wireless networks, enabling users to authenticate with their company credentials, ensuring secure access to the network.References: CompTIA Network+ study materials. ​
