2 Exam (+ solutions): 1 What are three characteristics of a VLAN access port? (Choose three.) -> A switch port can become an access port through static or dynamic configuration. -> An access port is associated with a single VLAN. An access port should have the 802.1q encapsulation associated with it. An access port will send DTP frames by default. -> An access port is created with the switchport mode access command and then associated with a VLAN with the switchport access vlan command. The VLAN that the access port is assigned to will be automatically deleted if it does not exist in the VLAN database of the switch. 2

Refer to the exhibit. Which option correctly describes the function of a switch that is configured in VTP transparent mode? option 1 option 2 option 3 -> option 4 option 5 3 Refer to the exhibit. How should SW2 be configured in order to participate in the same VTP domain and populate the VLAN information across the domain? -> Switch SW2 should be configured as a VTP client. Switch SW2 should be configured for VTP version 1. Switch SW2 should be configured with no VTP domain password. Switch SW2 should be configured as a VTP server with a higher revision number. 4 Which three effects does the interface command switchport host have when entered on a switch? (Choose three.) -> sets the switch port mode to access enables BPDU guard -> enables spanning tree PortFast enables root guard -> disables channel grouping enables BPDU filtering 5 Refer to the exhibit. During the network upgrade process, a network administrator included switch SW2 in the network. Immediately afterward, the users on VLAN10 who were connected to SW10 lost connectivity to the network. Based on the show vtp status command outputs that are provided, what could be done to remedy the problem? Configure switch SW2 in VTP client mode. Configure switch SW2 with VTP version 1. Configure switch SW2 with the higher revision number. -> Configure switch SW2 with the same VTP domain name that SW1 has. 6 A network administrator is tasked with protecting a server farm by implementing private VLANs (PVLANs). A server is only allowed to communicate with its default gateway and other related servers. Which type of PVLAN should be configured on the switch ports that connect to the servers? isolated promiscuous secondary VLAN -> community 7

Which two items are benefits of implementing local VLANs within the Enterprise Architecture? (Choose two.) A single VLAN can extend further than its associated distribution-layer switch. -> Failures at Layer 2 are isolated to a small subset of users. High availability is made possible because local VLAN traffic on access switches can now be passed directly to the core switches across an alternate Layer 3 path. Layer 3 routing between VLANs can now be applied at the access layer. -> Local VLANs are limited to the access and distribution layer. 8 Refer to the exhibit. A network administrator is unable to ping between two workstations, PC1 and PC2, that are connected to switch3548. PC1 is connected to port Fa0/19, and PC2 is connected to port Gi0/2. Given the output of the show vlan command, which statement is true? -> Both workstations are on the same VLAN. Both workstations are in the default VLAN. Inter-VLAN routing is not properly configured. The VLAN interface is administratively shut down. PC2 is connected to a trunk port instead of an access port. 9 When configuring an EtherChannel, given that one end of the link is configured with PAgP mode desirable, which PAgP modes can be configured on the opposite end of the link in order to form an active channel? (Choose two.) off on -> desirable -> auto 10 In the context of the Enterprise Composite Architecture, which statement is true about best-practice design of local VLANs? Local VLAN is a feature that has only local significance to the switch. -> Local VLANs do not extend beyond the building distribution layer. Local VLANs should be created based upon the job function of the end user. Local VLANs should be advertised to all switches in the network. 11 Refer to the exhibit. The DNS servers DNS1 and DNS2 are redundant copies so they need to communicate with each other and to the Internet. The web server and the SMTP server need to communicate with the Internet, but for security purposes the web and the SMTP servers should not be reachable from the DNS servers. What private VLAN design should be implemented? All servers should be configured in separate isolated VLANs. All isolated VLANs should be in the same primary VLAN. All servers should be configured in separate community VLANs. All community VLANs should be in the same primary VLAN. -> The DNS1 and DNS2 servers should be configured in a community VLAN. The web and SMTP

servers should be configured in an isolated VLAN. Both the community and isolated VLANs should be part of the primary VLAN. The DNS1 and DNS2 servers should be configured in an isolated VLAN. The web and SMTP servers should be configured in a community VLAN. Both the community and isolated VLANs should be in the same primary VLAN. 12 Refer to the exhibit. Which two statements are true about the switch CAT2? (Choose two.) Eleven VLANs were manually configured on the switch. -> Six VLANs were either manually configured on the switch or learned via VTP. Interfaces Fa0/13 and Fa0/14 are in VLAN 1. Interfaces Fa0/13 and Fa0/14 are in an unspecified VLAN. VLAN 100 is in dynamic desirable mode. -> VLAN 100 has no active access ports. 13 Refer to the exhibit. Switch1 and Switch2 are unable to establish an operational trunk connection. What is the problem between the connection on Switch1 and Switch2? encapsulation mismatch switchport mode mismatch MTU mismatch VTP mismatch DTP mismatch -> native VLAN mismatch 14 Refer to the exhibit. Given the configuration information of the CAT1 and CAT2 switches, which statement is true? -> LACP will form a channel between the switches. Because the port-channel numbers do not match, LACP will not form a channel between the switches. Because the channel-group commands on SW2 should be set to "on," LACP will not form a channel between the switches. LACP will form a 200-Mb/s channel between the switches. 15 Refer to the exhibit. Given the exhibited command output, which statement is true? Interface Fa0/1 is configured for ISL trunking. Interface Fa0/1 is configured as an access port. Interface Fa0/1 is configured as an SVI. -> Interface Fa0/1 is configured for 802.1Q trunking. 16 Refer to the exhibit. Both SW1 and SW2 are configured with the PAgP desirable mode. Which statement is true? Both switches will initiate channeling negotiation and will not be able to form a channel.

-> Both switches will initiate channeling negotiation and will form a channel between them. Neither switch will initiate channeling negotiation and will not be able to form a channel between them. Neither switch will initiate channeling negotiation but will form a channel between them. 17 Which two statements are true about the 802.1Q trunking protocol? (Choose two.) -> Untagged frames will be placed in the configured native VLAN of a port. It is a proprietary protocol that is supported on Cisco switches only. Private VLAN configurations are not supported. -> The native VLAN interface configurations must match at both ends of the link or frames could be dropped. 18 Refer to the exhibit. Switch SW2 was tested in a lab environment and later inserted into the production network. Before a trunk link has been connected between the two switches SW1 and SW2, a network administrator issued the show vtp status command as displayed in the exhibit. Immediately after the switches were interconnected, all users lost connectivity to the network. What could be the possible reason for the problem? The switches can exchange VTP information only through an access link. Switch SW2 receives more VLANs from switch SW1 than can be supported. Switch SW2 has the pruning eligible parameter enabled, which causes pruning of all VLANs from the trunk port. -> Switch SW2 has a higher VTP server revision number, which causes deletion of the VLAN information in the VTP domain. 19 Refer to the exhibit. The web servers WS_1 and WS_2 need to be accessed by external and internal users. For security reasons, the servers do not have to communicate with each other although they are located on the same subnet. Both servers need to communicate with the data server that is located on the inside network. Which configuration will isolate the servers from inside attacks? Ports Fa3/1, Fa3/2, Fa3/34, and Fa3/35 on DSW1 will be defined as primary VLAN promiscuous ports. Ports Fa3/1, Fa3/2, Fa3/34, and Fa3/35 on DSW1 will be defined as primary VLAN community ports. -> Ports Fa3/1 and Fa3/2 on DSW1 will be defined as secondary VLAN isolated ports. Ports Fa3/34 and Fa3/35 will be defined as primary VLAN promiscuous ports. Ports Fa3/1 and Fa3/2 on DSW1 will be defined as secondary VLAN community ports. Ports Fa3/34 and Fa3/35 will be defined as primary VLAN promiscuous ports. 20 What happens when an ISL-enabled trunk receives an unencapsulated frame? -> The frame is dropped. The frame is processed as part of the native VLAN frames. The switch will hold the untagged frame and send a BPDU to the originating switch. The switch will associate the frame with the VLAN that the receiving port is assigned to.

3 Exam (+ solutions): 1 Which two statements are true about STP root guard? (Choose two.) -> Root guard is enabled on a per-port basis. Root guard requires that PortFast be enabled on a switch port. -> Root guard re-enables a switch port once it stops receiving superior BPDUs. Root guard should be configured on all ports on the desired root bridge to prevent another bridge from becoming the root. If a root guard enabled port receives a inferior BPDU from a nonroot switch, the port transitions to the blocking state to prevent a root bridge election. 2 What will happen when a BPDU is received on a loop guard port that is in a loop-inconsistent state? The port will transition to blocking state. The port will transition to forwarding state automatically. The port will be disabled and the administrator must re-enable it manually. -> The port will transition to the appropriate state as determined by the normal function of the spanning tree. 3 Which three statements about RSTP are true? (Choose three.) An RSTP BPDU carries information about port roles and is sent to neighbor switches only. -RSTP elects a root bridge in exactly the same way as 802.1D. RSTP is capable of reverting back to 802.1D but still maintains the benefits of 802.1w. -RSTP is recognized as the IEEE 802.1w standard. There are only three RSTP port states: discarding, listening, and forwarding. -UplinkFast and BackboneFast are compatible with RSTP. 4 What happens when a switch running IEEE 802.1D receives a topology change message from the root bridge? -> The switch uses the forward delay timer to age out entries in the MAC address table. The switch uses the max-age timer to age out entries in the MAC address table. The switch uses the hello to age out entries in the MAC address table. The switch uses the forward delay and the max-age timer to age out entries in the MAC address table. 5 Refer to the exhibit. After the sequence of commands is entered, how many VLANs will be assigned to the default instance?

4094 4064 4062 -> 4061 6 Which three parameters should match all switches within an MST region? (Choose three.) port costs on trunk ports -configuration name -revision number trunk encapsulation method bridge priority -VLAN-to-instance mappings 7 What are three important steps in troubleshooting STP problems? (Choose three.) Administratively create bridge loops and see what path the traffic takes. Administratively disable multicasting and check to see if connectivity is restored. -> Check each side of a point-to-point link for duplex mismatch. Adjust BPDU timers so that there is less overhead traffic on the switching fabric. -> Administratively disable ports that should be blocking and check to see if connectivity is restored. -> Capture traffic on a saturated link and check whether identical frames are traversing multiple links. 8 Refer to the exhibit. What implementation of spanning tree best describes the spanning-tree operational mode of the switch? -> IEEE 802.1D IEEE 802.w IEEE 802.1s PVRST+ 9 Refer to the exhibit. STP is configured on all switches in the network. Recently, the user on workstation A lost connectivity to the rest of the network. At the same time, the administrator received the console message: %SPANTREE-2-RX_PORTFAST:Received BPDU on PortFast enable port.Disabling 2/1 What is the cause of the problem? STP PortFast feature has been disabled on port 2/1. STP PortFast feature has been enabled on port 2/1. PAgP has removed port 2/1 from the EtherChannel bundle. -The STP PortFast BPDU Guard feature has disabled port 2/1 on the switch. 10 Refer to the exhibit. What two conclusions does the output show to be true? (Choose two.)

-> DLS1 is running IEEE 802.1s on instance 1. DLS1 is running IEEE 802.1D on instance 1. -> DLS1 is the root bridge for instance 1. Interface Fa0/12 will move into the errdisable state if a BPDU is received. Interfaces Fa0/1 through Fa0/6 are trunk ports. 11 Refer to the exhibit. STP is enabled on all switches in the network. The port on switch A that connects to switch B is half duplex. The port on switch B that connects to switch A is full duplex. What are three problems that this scenario could create? (Choose three.) Switch B will become the root switch. -> Switch B may unblock its port to switch C, thereby creating a loop. -> Switch A is performing carrier sense and collision detection, and switch B is not. Autonegotiation results in both switch A and switch B failing to perform carrier sense. -> BPDUs may not successfully negotiate port states on the link between switch A and switch B. Spanning tree will keep re-calculating, thereby consuming all the CPU normally used for traffic. 12 Which STP timer defines the length of time spent in the listening and learning states? hello time forward aging -> forward delay max age max delay 13 Which protocol extends the IEEE 802.1w Rapid Spanning Tree (RST) algorithm to multiple spanning trees? STP RSTP+ CST -MST 14 Users complain that they lost connectivity to all resources in the network. A network administrator suspects the presence of a bridging loop as a root cause of the problem. Which two actions will determine the existence of the bridging loop? (Choose two.) Confirm MAC port security is enabled on all access switches. -> Check the port utilization on devices and look for abnormal values. Verify that the management VLAN is properly configured on all root bridges. -> Capture the traffic on the saturated link and verify if duplicate packets are seen. Ensure that the root guard and loop guard are properly configured on all distribution links. 15 Refer to the exhibit. Switch SW1 is receiving traffic from SW2. However, SW2 is not receiving traffic from SW1. Which STP feature should be implemented to prevent inadvertent loops in the network?

-> UDLD PortFast BPDU guard BPDU filtering 16 Which statement is true about UDLD? It is automatically enabled. It allows devices to transmit traffic one way. It will disable an EtherChannel bundle if one link has failed. -it allows a switch to detect a unidirectional link and shut down the affected interface. 17 Refer to the exhibit. What conclusion does the output support? PortFast is enabled on interface Fa0/6. IEEE 802.1w is enabled on VLAN 1. The forward delay timer has been changed from the default value. -> Standard IEEE 802.1D behavior is shown. 18 One switch in a Layer 2 switched spanning-tree domain is converted to PVRST+ using the spanningtree mode rapid-pvst global configuration mode command. The remaining switches are running PVST+. What is the effect on the spanning-tree operation? Spanning tree is effectively disabled in the network. The PVRST+ switch forwards 802.1D BPDUs, but does not participate as a node in any spanning tree. All switches default to one 802.1D spanning tree for all VLANs. -> The PVSRT+ reverts to PVST+ to interoperate with the PVST+ switches. 19 Which interfaces should loop guard be enabled on? root ports designated ports -root port and alternate ports ports configured with PortFast root port and ports configured with PortFast 20 Which protocol should an administrator recommend to manage bridged links when the customer requires a fully redundant network that can utilize load balancing technologies and reconverge on link failures in less than a second? IEEE 802.1Q (CST) -IEEE 802.1s (MST) Cisco PVST+ IEEE 802.1D(STP)

4 Exam (+/- solutions): 1 Refer to the exhibit and the partial configuration taken on routers RTA and RTB. All users can ping their gateways, but users on VLAN 5 and VLAN 10 cannot communicate with the users on VLAN 20. What should be done to solve the problem? A dynamic routing protocol or static routes should be configured on the routers. A trunk should be configured between routers RTA and RTB. RTA interface Fa0/1 and RTB Fa0/1 should be configured with three subinterfaces, each with ISL encapsulation. RTA interface Fa0/1 and RTB Fa0/1 should be configured with three subinterfaces, each with 802.1Q encapsulation. 2 Which condition will cause a packet to be process-switched instead of CEF switched? packets that are switched to an outgoing interface with an outbound ACL applied packets with a destination interface that is chosen by a routing protocol -> packets that need to be fragmented on the outgoing interface packets with a destination interface that is chosen by a static route packets that use TCP header options 3 Refer to the exhibit and the partial configuration taken on router RTA. Users on VLAN 5 cannot communicate with the users on VLAN 10. What should be done to fix the problem? A dynamic routing protocol should be configured on the router. Two static routes should be configured on the router, each pointing to each subnet. The Fa0/0 interface should be configured with a primary IP address of 10.10.5.1/24 and a secondary IP address of 10.10.10.1/24. The subinterfaces of the router should be configured with 802.1Q encapsulation. 4 Which two statements are true about switched virtual interfaces (SVI) on a multilayer switch? (Choose two.) An SVI behaves like a regular router interface but does not support VLAN subinterfaces. An SVI is a physical switch port with Layer 3 capability. By default, an SVI is created for the default VLAN (VLAN1). Only one SVI can be associated with a VLAN. To create an SVI requires removal of Layer 2 port functionality with the no switchport interface configuration command.

5 Refer to the exhibit. An administrator wants to ensure that CEF is functioning properly on the switches between hosts A and B. If the administrator wants to verify the CEF FIB table entry for the route 10.10.5.0/24 on Sw_MLSA, what should the adjacency IP address be? 10.10.10.1 10.10.10.2 10.10.5.1 10.10.5.2 6 Refer to the exhibit. Which statement is true regarding the diagram and show ip route command output? Because no routing protocol has been configured, the router will not forward packets between workstations. The default gateway for hosts on VLAN 10 should be the Fa0/0 IP address of the router. The default gateway for hosts on VLAN 10 should be the Fa0/0.1 IP address of the router. The default gateway for hosts on VLAN 10 should be the Fa0/0.2 IP address of the router. Because their packets are being trunked, hosts on VLAN 10 do not need a default gateway. 7 Refer to the exhibit. What additional configuration is required for host A to receive IP configuration from the DHCP server? The ip address dhcp command is required on interface Fa0/0. The ip dhcp information option command is required on interface Fa0/1. The ip helper-address 10.1.2.10 command is required on interface Fa0/0. The ip forward-protocol 37 global configuration command is required to forward DNS requests to IP address 10.1.2.10. The ip forward-protocol 67 global configuration command is required to forward DHCP requests to IP address 10.1.2.10. The ip forward-protocol 69 global configuration command is required to forward TFTP requests to IP address 10.1.2.10. 8 What is true about TCAM lookups that are associated with CEF switching? TCAM includes only Layer 3 lookup information. -> A single TCAM lookup provides Layer 2, Layer 3, and ACL information TCAM lookup tables are used only for the Layer 3 forwarding operation. TCAM lookup tables are used only for the rapid processing of ACLs within CEF. 9 A client computer is set up for DHCP and needs an IP configuration. During the DHCP client configuration process, which response will enable the client to begin using the assigned address immediately? DHCPACK DHCPREQUEST

DHCPOFFER DHCPDISCOVER 10 Refer to the exhibit. The router has been properly configured for the trunking interface. Which statement is true about the routing table on the router? It will show a next hop address of the switch for both VLANs. It will show one trunking route to 10.0.0.0/8. It should contain routes to the 10.10.10.0/24 and the 10.10.11.0/24 networks. Because the switch is not configured properly to trunk VLAN 1 and VLAN 2, the routing table of the router will not show routes to either VLAN . Because the switch port fa0/1 is in access mode, the routing table of the router will not show any routes. 11 Which three events will cause the Forwarding Information Base (FIB) table to be updated? (Choose three.) -> An ARP entry for the destination next hop changes, ages out, or is removed. The FIB table is cleared with the clear fib adjacency * command. -> The routing table entry for the next hop changes. The IP packets have an expiring TTL counter. The TCAM table is flushed and reactivated. -> The routing table entry for a prefix changes. 12 A DHCPREQUEST message has been sent from the client to the DHCP server. What information is included in the message? initial message to locate a DHCP server -> formal request for the offered IP address confirmation that the IP address has been allocated to the client denial message to reject the first offer from the DHCP server 13 Which statement is true about the CEF forwarding process? The FIB table contains the Layer 2 rewrite information. Adjacency table lookups use the closest Layer 3 prefix match. The adjacency table eliminates the need for the ARP protocol. After an IP prefix match is made, the process determines the associated Layer 2 header rewrite information from the adjacency table. 14 Which three statements about a routed switch interface are true? (Choose three.) A routed switch port is a physical device that is associated with several VLANs. -> A routed switch port is created by configuring a Layer 2 port with the no switchport interface configuration command and assigning an IP address. A routed switch port is created by entering VLAN interface configuration mode and assigning an IP

address. A routed switch port is a virtual Layer 3 interface that can be configured for any VLAN that exists on a Layer 3 switch. -> A routed switch port provides an interface that may provide a Layer 3 connection to a next-hop router. -> A routed switch port can serve as a default gateway for devices. 15 Which two statements are true about routed ports on a multilayer switch? (Choose two.) A routed port behaves like a regular router interface and supports VLAN subinterfaces. A routed port is a physical switch port with Layer 2 capability. A routed port is not associated with a particular VLAN. To create a routed port requires removal of Layer 2 port functionality with the no switchport interface configuration command. The interface vlan global configuration command is used to create a routed port. 16 Refer to the exhibit. Based on the debug ip dhcp server packet output, which statement is true? The client sends a DHCPDISCOVER that contains IP address 10.1.10.21 to the DHCP server. The client sends a DHCPREQUEST that contains IP address 10.1.10.21 to the DHCP server. The client sends the BOOTREPLY broadcast message to inquire for a new IP address. The client accepts the offer from the DHCP server for the 10.1.10.21 IP address. 17 What is an advantage to using a trunk link to connect a switch to an external router that is providing inter-VLAN routing? -> works with any switch that supports VLANs and trunking lowers latency provides redundancy to the VLANs reduces CPU overhead 18 Which statement describes what occurs when a DHCP request is forwarded through a router that has been configured with the ip helper-address command? The router replaces the source MAC address included in the DHCP request with its own MAC address. The router replaces the source IP address of the DHCP request with the IP address that is specified with the ip helper-address command. -> The router replaces the broadcast destination IP address of the DHCP request with the unicast IP address that is specified with the ip helper-address command. The router replaces the unicast destination IP address of the DHCP request with the unicast IP address that is specified with the ip helper-address command. 19 Refer to the exhibit and the show ip cef output. What can be concluded from the output? -> The output validates that the CEF FIB entry for 10.10.5.0/24 is correct.

The cached adjacency address is 10.10.10.1. The next hop address is 10.10.10.1. The output shows that packets destined to 10.10.5.0/24 have not been processed by CEF. 20 A client sends a request for an IP address to a DHCP server. Which DHCP message to the client will provide the configuration parameters that include an IP address, a domain name, and a lease for the IP address? DHCPDISCOVER DHCPOFFER DHCPREQUEST DHCPACK

Access switches should have a backup connection to at least one core device Dual distribution switches should connect individually to separate core switches. Three distribution switches should be implemented so that the third switch can take the role of active or standby, as necessary. 3 What SNMP attribute provides the best security? authNoPriv

-> authPriv community string noAuthNoPriv SNMPv2 4 Refer to the exhibit. Which statement is correct about the network? -> A Layer 3 link should be installed between the two distribution switches to avoid unexpected traffic paths and multiple convergence events. The root bridge and HSRP active router should be two different devices. A Layer 2 access link is required between the two access switches to ensure optimal redundancy.

Router R6 has sent a join message to router R4 requesting multicast traffic for users in the multicast group 224.1.1.1. How will the multicast traffic that is sent from the multicast server SRC through the R1-R3-R5 path be handled at router R6? -> The multicast traffic will be dropped. The multicast traffic will be sent to switch SW1, which will drop the traffic. The multicast traffic will be forwarded to all users in the multicast group 224.1.1.1. The multicast traffic will be sent back to the rendezvous point (RP) through the R4-R2-R1 path. 7 Refer to the exhibit. The network has EIGRP configured on all routers and has converged on the routes advertised. PIM sparse mode has been also configured on all routers. The routers between

The traffic will flow via source tree from the Source to the RP and via shared tree from the RP to the Receivers. 8 Which two statements about Protocol Independent Multicast (PIM) are true? (Choose two.) PIM does not require an IGP protocol to be configured in the network. PIM should be configured only on the first and the last hop routers in the multicast tree. PIM should be configured on the device that hosts the source of the muticast traffic. PIM Sparse Mode is most useful when there are few senders, many receivers, and the volume of multicast traffic is high. -> PIM is a multicast routing protocol that makes packet-forwarding decisions independent of the unicast IP routing protocol that is running in the network. -> Three of the forwarding modes for PIM are PIM Dense Mode (PIM-DM), PIM Sparse Mode (PIMSM), and PIM Sparse-Dense Mode. 9 Which MAC multicast address correctly maps to the IP multicast address 224.10.50.4? 01.00.5E.10.32.04 01.00.5E.10.50.04 -> 01.00.5E.0A.32.04 01.00.5E.0A.50.04 10 Which two statements about IP multicast addresses are true? (Choose two.) IP address 224.0.0.5 identifies the all-routers group. All IP multicast group addresses fall in the range from 224.0.0.0 through 254.255.255.255. -> GLOP addresses and limited scope addresses are two types of IP multicast addresses. IP addresses between 233.0.0.0 and 233.255.255.255 are reserved link-local addresses. IP addresses between 224.0.0.1 and 239.255.255.255 can be assigned to the sources of multicast traffic. -> IP address 224.0.1.1 is a globally scoped address that has been reserved for the Network Time Protocol (NTP). 11 Which three statements are true about Protocol Independent Multicast (PIM) implementation on Cisco routers? (Choose three.) -> Bidir-PIM is suited for multicast with larger numbers of sources.

In PIM-SM deployment, all routers create only (*,G) entries for the multicast groups. In PIM-DM, a multicast sender first registers with the RP, and the data stream begins to flow from sender to RP to receiver. Available network bandwidth is overutilized outside of the multicast routing zone because multiple streams of data are required between distant routers in place of a single transmission. -> All routers in the PIM network learn about the active group-to-RP mapping from the RP mapping agent by automatically joining the Cisco-RP-discovery (224.0.1.40) multicast group. -> In a PIM-SM network, the routers have the SPT threshold set to 0 by default which guarantees that the last-hop router switches to SPT mode as soon as the host starts receiving the multicast. 12 What are two reasons to implement wireless in a network? (Choose two.) increased security -> increased mobility -> increased productivity increased cost savings increased throughput 13 What is true about the differences between wireless LANs (WLANs) and LANs? A VPN connection that uses IPsec is not possible with WLANs. WLANs do not use MAC addresses. WLANs use CSMA/CA rather than CSMA/CD because WLANs operate at half-duplex. -> WLANs use CSMA/CA rather than CSMA/CD because WLANs cannot detect collisions. WLANs use CSMA/CD rather than CSMA/CA because wireless LANs operate on multiple frequencies.

Multiple devices can be grouped together to combine total bandwidth. The conversation flow can be split between multiple switches. The conversation flow can be split between multiple routers. 15 What are two reasons to implement voice in a network? (Choose two.) -> cost savings -> increased productivity stronger security increased data throughput easier administration 16 What method of QoS gives preferential handling for predefined classes of traffic?

best-effort services -> differentiated services hard QoS services integrated services 17 What is a major difference between traffic shaping and policing? -> Traffic shaping buffers excessive traffic to smooth traffic whereas policing drops excessive traffic. Traffic shaping is preferred for traffic flows such as voice and video whereas policing is better for TCP flows. Traffic shaping controls the rate traffic flows through a switch whereas policing controls traffic flows through a router. Traffic shaping marks traffic with Layer 2 class of service (CoS) whereas policing marks traffic with the ToS bits in the IP header. 18 Where should QoS classification and marking be done? -> access layer at the first router interface core layer distribution layer 19 What is the function of a gateway within a VoIP network? -> provides translation between VoIP and non-VoIP networks provides connection admission control (CAC), bandwidth control and management, and address translation provides real-time connectivity for participants in multiple locations to attend the same video conference or meeting provides call control for IP phones, CAC, bandwidth control and management, and address translation 20 What are two best practices when implementing voice in a network?

Refer to the exhibit. What statement is true about the way HSRP is configured? Switch DLS1 is the standby router for VLANs 1,10, and 20. Switch DLS2 is the standby router for VLANs 30 and 40. Issuing the show standby command on switch DSL1 will reveal that the HSRP state for VLAN 10 is standby. Issuing the show standby command on switch DSL2 will reveal that the HSRP state for VLAN 30 is standby. -> By setting different priorities on different VLANs, a type of load balancing is occurring. If the Ethernet cables between switch DLS2 and switch ALS1 were severed, Payroll Host would not be able to reach SQL Server. 13 Which two procedures should be implemented and in place when deploying VoIP in a campus network?

-> PortFast is enabled. -> Trunking is disabled. -> Channel group is disabled. 17 Refer to the exhibit. What is the result of the displayed configuration on switches ASW1 and ASW2? -> BPDU guard puts an interface that is configured for STP PortFast in the err-disable state upon receipt of a BPDU. BPDU guard overrides the PortFast configuration and reverts to the default spanning tree configuration on the access ports. BPDU guard forces the uplink ports on ASW1 and ASW2 to become designated ports to prevent DSW2 from becoming a root switch. BPDU guard places the uplink ports on a ASW1 and ASW2 into the STP loop-inconsistent blocking state when the ports stop receiving BPDUs. 18 Refer to the exhibit. Switches DSw1 and DSw2 are configured with the HSRP virtual IP address 10.10.10.1, and standby priority is set to 100.

(Choose three.) -> Route Processor Redundancy+ (RPR+)

distributed CEF (dCEF) -> Stateful Switchover (SSO) Resilient Packet Ring (RPR) -> Nonstop Forwarding (NSF) Per Line Card Traffic Policing 26 What is the purpose of the debug condition standby vlan vlan-id group-number command in troubleshooting HSRP? redirect the debug standby output for the referenced HSRP group to a syslog server on the specified VLAN block the debug standby output for the referenced VLAN and HSRP group display debug standby output only for HSRP traffic that is received by HSRP peers in the specified VLAN and group display debug standby output only for HSRP traffic that is sent to HSRP peers in the specified VLAN and group -> limit the output of the debug standby command to the specific VLAN interface and HSRP group 27 Refer to the exhibit. The link between switch SW1 and SW2 is manually configured as full duplex on SW2 and with half duplex on SW1. How could this impact the STP operations? -> Switch SW2 can move port Fa0/3 into a forwarding state, thereby creating a Layer 2 loop. Switch SW1 shuts down the Fa0/1 port and thus reinforces a new spanning-tree calculation. Switch SW2 negotiates the Fa0/1 port on SW1 to be in full-duplex mode which keeps SW1 as the root bridge for the spanning tree. Switch SW1 negotiates the Fa0/2 port on SW2 to be in half-duplex mode and thus forces SW2 to become the root bridge for the spanning tree. 28 Which three parameters must be configured in order to enable SSH? (Choose three.) retries -> hostname timeouts -> domain name -> keys routing protocol 29 The TCAM defines three different match options that correlate to which three specific match regions? (Choose three.) bifurcated match -> longest match second match -> exact match -> first match third match

30 What is required for SLA to capture one-way delays? two IP SLA responders a Round Trip Timer value -> Network Time Protocol (NTP) IP SLA source using TCP port 2020 31 A bridging loop occurs in a network and disrupts user connectivity. What action should be taken by a network administrator to restore connectivity? -> Disable ports that should be in the blocking state. Disable ports that should be in the forwarding state. Disable and re-enable all ports on the distribution switches. Disable all ports on the distribution switches and replace with new switches. 32 Refer to the exhibit. What two effects will occur when a fourth distribution module is included in the campus enterprise network that is depicted in the exhibit? (Choose two.) -> The inclusion of the fourth module will increase the routing complexity. It will limit the traffic flow in the network. It will provide scalability for future growth. It will impact the security of the traffic between the distribution switches. -> It will increase the number of additional links that are required to provide redundant connectivity. 33 What is the recommended maximum one-way latency when implementing video over IP for real-time video applications? Latency is not a factor for a smooth video over IP implementation. Latency should be defined for voice traffic only (not for video). -> The recommended maximum one-way latency should not be more than 150 ms. When mixed video and voice packets are included in the video stream, the latency should be 300 ms. 34 What is the recommended maximum one-way jitter when implementing video over IP for real-time video applications? 1 ms 2 ms 5 ms -> 10 ms 35 When should a proactive management be performed within the stages of the Cisco Lifecycle Services? prepare phase plan phase

design phase implement phase operate phase -> optimize phase 36 Which two statements are true about the default operation of STP in a Layer 2 switched environment that has redundant connections between switches? (Choose two.) The root switch is the switch with the highest speed ports. -> Decisions on which port to block when two ports have equal cost depend on the port priority and index. All trunking ports are designated and not blocked. Root switches have all ports set as root ports. -> Nonroot switches each have only one root port. 37 What are two benefits of local VLANs in the Enterprise Campus Network? (Choose two.) wide coverage because of the fact that a VLAN can be geographically dispersed throughout the network -> ease of management because local VLANs are typically confined to the building access submodule -> high availability because redundant paths exist at all infrastructure levels broad expansion domain because the number of devices on each VLAN can easily be added to IP address conservation because address blocks can be allocated to VLANs 38 Which QoS requirement should be taken into account when implementing VoIP in a campus environment? The QoS requirements should accommodate the best effort delivery for voice traffic. The QoS requirements should accommodate the bursty nature of voice traffic. The QoS requirements should accommodate the intensive demand on bandwidth for voice traffic. -> The QoS requirements should accommodate the smooth demand on bandwidth, low latency, and delay for voice traffic. 39 Refer to the exhibit. The indicated configuration was established on the HSRP standby router RTB. However, the console message %IP-4-DUPADDR started appearing almost immediately on the RTB router. Given the output of the show standby brief command on RTA, what is the cause of the problem? The command standby preempt should only be applied on the active router. The subnet mask is missing from the standby ip 10.1.1.1 command. -> The group number 50 is missing in the Router RTB configuration commands. The priority number 150 is missing in the Router RTB configuration commands. The virtual IP address should be the same as the active router. The ports on the switch must be configured with the spanning-tree PortFast feature.

40 Which three actions can cause problems with a VTP implementation? (Choose three.) -> using a non-trunk link to connect switches -> using non-Cisco switches configuring all switches to be in VTP server mode not using any VTP passwords on any switches -> using lowercase on one switch and uppercase on another switch for domain names having a VTP transparent switch in between a VTP server switch and a VTP client switch (all switches in the same VTP domain) 41 Refer to the exhibit. What two conclusions can be made based on the output? (Choose two.) Interfaces Fa0/1 through Fa0/6 are trunk ports. -> Switch DLS1 is not the root bridge for VLAN 1. -> The Cost column in the lower part of the exhibit is not the cumulative root path cost. The default spanning-tree timers have been adjusted. That Fa0/12 is displaying the alternate port role indicates that PVRST+ is enabled. 42 Which STP enhancement should be configured in the network to prevent a nondesignated port to transition to a forwarding state when a topology change occurs? Root guard should be implemented on the Layer 2 ports between the distribution switches. PortFast should be implemented on the uplink ports from the access switches to the distribution switches. -> Loop guard should be implemented on the Layer 2 ports between DSW1 and DSW2 and on the uplink ports from the access switches to the distribution switches. BPDU guard should be implemented on the Layer 2 ports between DSW1 and DSW2 and on the uplink ports from the access switches to the distribution switches. 43 Which two items in the TCAM table are referenced in the process of forwarding a packet? (Choose two.) VLAN ID -> ACL information destination MAC address -> QoS information source MAC address hash key 44 How many physical links can comprise a single PAgP EtherChannel on a Catalyst 3560 switch? (Choose three.) -> 2 -> 5 -> 8 10

12 13 16 45 Which two types of attacks can be mitigated by port security? (Choose two.) dictionary -> denial of service (DoS) replay -> MAC-address flooding password 46 Which three statements about RSTP edge ports are true? (Choose three.) Edge ports function similarly to UplinkFast ports. -> Edge ports should never connect to another switch. -> If an edge port receives a BPDU, it becomes a normal spanning-tree port. Edge ports immediately transition to learning mode and then forwarding mode when enabled. -> Edge ports never generate topology change notifications (TCNs) when the port transitions to a disabled or enabled status. Edge ports can have another switch connected to them as long as the link is operating in full duplex. 47 Which three issues can cause devices to become disconnected across a trunk link? (Choose three.) -> native VLAN mismatch unassigned management VLAN -> Layer 2 interface mode incompatibilities missing default VLAN -> mismatched trunk encapsulations PAgP not enabled 48 What are two actions a hacker may take in a VLAN hopping attack? (Choose two.) replying to ARP requests that are intended for other recipients -> sending malicious dynamic trunking protocol (DTP) frames replying to DHCP requests that are intended for a DHCP server sending a unicast flood of Ethernet frames with distinct source MAC addresses -> sending frames with two 802.1Q headers 49 How do FlexLink and STP operate together? If an active STP port is blocked, the active FlexLink port will take over. Both the active STP port and active FlexLink port can forward traffic simultaneously. Both the active STP port and active FlexLink port can forward traffic simultaneously but only for different VLANs. -> STP can be active in the distribution layer, but is unaware of any FlexLink updates in the access layer.

50 Refer to the exhibit. What is the problem between the connection on Switch1 and Switch2? native VLAN mismatch -> encapsulation mismatch switchport mode mismatch VTP mismatch DTP mismatch hardware failure 51 Refer to the exhibit. What happens if interface gigabitEthernet 5/1 on SwitchA stops receiving UDLD packets? UDLD stops trying to establish a connection with the neighbor. -> UDLD changes the port state to err-disable. UDLD changes the port to loop-inconsistent blocking state. UDLD sends hello messages to its neighbor at a rate of one per second to attempt to recover the connection. 52 When troubleshooting GLBP in an environment with a VLAN that spans multiple access layer switches, a network engineer discovers that suboptimal paths are being used for upstream traffic. What is the recommended solution? -> Use HSRP instead of GLBP. Adjust the GLBP timers. Configure spanning tree so that the spanning-tree topology adjusts with the GLBP active virtual forwarder (AVF). Disable GLBP preemption on all route processors. 53 Which two statements are true about routed ports on a multilayer switch? (Choose two.) A routed port behaves like a regular router interface and supports VLAN subinterfaces. A routed port is a physical switch port with Layer 2 capability. -> A routed port is not associated with a particular VLAN. -> To create a routed port requires removal of Layer 2 port functionality with the no switchport interface configuration command. The interface vlan global configuration command is used to create a routed port. 54 Refer to the exhibit. What configuration will be required on the DSW switch in order to perform interVLAN routing for all VLANs that are configured on the access switches? Configure the routing protocol. -> Configure SVI for each VLAN in the network. Configure the links between DSW and the access switches as access links. Configure as routed ports the DSW interfaces that face the access switches.

Ports Fa0/1, Fa0/2, and Fa0/24 can send and receive all DHCP messages. Only ports Fa0/1 and Fa0/2 can send and receive all DHCP messages. Ports Fa0/1, Fa0/2, and Fa0/24 can send and receive only DHCP requests. 56 What device can be used to support Power over Ethernet (PoE) to power the access points? a host computer an IP phone -> an Ethernet switch a lightweight access point 57 Refer to the exhibit. What restriction will be presented in a campus enterprise network that is designed with four large distribution building blocks? The implementation of link aggregation will be limited. The implementation of IGP routing protocols will be limited. The implementation of EtherChannels on redundant links will exceed the bandwidth. -> The implementation of scalability that is required during future growth will be limited. 58 Refer to the exhibit. A network administrator wants to verify the proper operations of the packet load sharing between a group of redundant routers that are configured with GLBP. On the basis of the provided output, which router is the Active Virtual Forwarder (AVF) for Host2? the router with an IP address of 10.1.1.1 -> the router with an IP address of 10.1.1.2 the router with the virtual IP address of 10.1.1.254 the router with the IP address 10.1.1.1 and the router with the IP address 10.1.1.2 59 Which phase of the Cisco Lifecycle Services approach includes building a network according to the design and verifying that it performs according to specifications? prepare phase plan phase design phase -> implement phase operate phase optimize phase 60 Which statement is true concerning the core layer within the hierarchical design model? Remote users are granted access to the network through the core. -> Routing should be configured without traffic filtering, address translation, or other packet

manipulation at the core. The core, which acts as the front door to a network, is designed to prevent unauthorized users from gaining entry. The core provides an optimized and reliable transport structure by using a combination of route summaries, distribution lists, and route maps.
