What type of networking questions would you suggest to weed out interview candidates during a 15 minute phone conversation? The emphasis would not be on any particular platform, but rather to discover if the candidate had a general understanding of tcpip networking, hardware, infrastructure, security, nat, firewalls, vpns, ipsec, ssl, dns, hubs, switches, routers, etc.

Example:

Q: Can you name a protocol responsible for dynamic IP address assignment?
A: BOOTP or DHCP
