Xinetd and Inetd for RHCSA

I have been looking at the objectives listed on the Red Hat site for RHCSA. They do not list xinetd and inetd. Can I assume, then, they will not be necessary to use and configure for the RHCSA? I have been studying for this test and I want to make sure I focus on what is on test and not be destracted by what is not on the test.

There's not a great deal deal to xinetd (replaces inetd) .. so I don't see why you wouldn't want to be familiar with it. I would have thought it was too minor to list as a study area so you may actually need to know it.
