    Firstly thank you for the clear layout of this video
    Secondly, these questions seem quite basic, would these only be relevant for a very basic entry level role do you think? Could you please describe the type of role and responsibilities you think these would be appropriate for?

      Believe me, most of these questions will be asked in any first technical interview regardless of your seniority.
      I encountered something like what's VPN or what is DNS or the difference between HTTP and HTTPS in every interview.
