Cisco 200-301 Practice Test 1

Question 1

A branch design for Eastbrook Labs has two requirements: (1) understand Rapid PVST+ alternate-port behavior, and (2) separate finance endpoints from engineering devices at Layer 2. Which option addresses both requirements?

  1. First, keep the alternate port discarding until needed; then place access switchports in different VLANs.
  2. First, keep the alternate port discarding until needed; then remove it from the trunk allowed VLAN list.
  3. First, check AP management IP, DHCP, DNS/discovery and routing to the WLC; then place access switchports in different VLANs.
  4. First, create and enable the WLAN/SSID in the controller GUI; then add routing through an SVI or router gateway.

Explanation

Correct Answer

A:

Both outcomes are covered: (1) An alternate port provides a backup path that does not forward user frames during normal loop-free operation. (2) VLAN membership creates separate Layer 2 broadcast domains even on the same physical switch. Neither action is a substitute for the other.

Incorrect Answers

B:

The first step covers (1), but the second addresses prevent an unused VLAN from crossing a trunk link. The allowed list determines which tagged VLANs may traverse the trunk. It leaves outcome (2) unfulfilled.

C:

The second step covers (2), but the first addresses diagnose why a new AP cannot join its WLC despite an active Ethernet port. Layer 1 link up alone does not establish controller discovery and join reachability. It leaves outcome (1) unfulfilled.

D:

Neither step is the requested pair: Create and enable the WLAN/SSID in the controller GUI is for publish a wireless network name for corporate users from a WLC, and Add routing through an SVI or router gateway is for explain why newly created VLAN hosts cannot talk across VLANs by default. The WLAN profile binds an SSID to its wireless security and policy configuration. The proposed plan misses the two stated outcomes.

Question 2

Switches on one Rapid PVST+ VLAN instance advertise these bridge IDs: SW-1 (priority 8192, MAC 2aca73c7c65b); SW-2 (priority 24576, MAC 6aa8e1ea8a67); SW-3 (priority 12288, MAC 2879c7f14941); SW-4 (priority 16384, MAC 32b60e3ceccf). They are powered on with no previous root. Which switch is the elected root?

  1. SW-2 (priority 24576, MAC 6aa8e1ea8a67)
  2. SW-3 (priority 12288, MAC 2879c7f14941)
  3. SW-4 (priority 16384, MAC 32b60e3ceccf)
  4. SW-1 (priority 8192, MAC 2aca73c7c65b)

Explanation

Correct Answer

D:

The STP root is the switch with the numerically lowest bridge ID: priority is compared first, followed by MAC on ties. SW-1 has the lowest priority 8192.

Incorrect Answers

A:

Its advertised priority is greater than the winner 8192, and no tie breaker changes the result.

B:

That explanation does not distinguish this option. “SW-3 (priority 12288, MAC 2879c7f14941)” is an alternative action, but it does not by itself establish the outcome required in this case.

C:

That explanation does not distinguish this option. “SW-4 (priority 16384, MAC 32b60e3ceccf)” is an alternative action, but it does not by itself establish the outcome required in this case.

Question 3

An acceptance check at Stonebridge Learning has two requirements: (1) reduce risk of exposing SNMP credentials on the network, and (2) distinguish an SNMP manager from an agent. Which option meets both stated needs?

  1. First, expect the client to send DHCPREQUEST and receive DHCPACK on success; then recognize the manager queries devices and agents expose managed variables.
  2. First, use SNMPv3 with authentication and privacy where supported; then recognize the manager queries devices and agents expose managed variables.
  3. First, read the syslog facility and severity as distinct attributes; then enable SSH using a hostname/domain, local user or AAA and VTY SSH transport.
  4. First, use SNMPv3 with authentication and privacy where supported; then apply traffic shaping to buffer and pace excess packets.

Explanation

Correct Answer

B:

Both outcomes are covered: (1) SNMPv3 authPriv protects management messaging with authenticated and encrypted transport. (2) SNMP assigns monitoring queries to managers and local MIB instrumentation to device agents. Neither action is a substitute for the other.

Incorrect Answers

A:

The second step covers (2), but the first addresses interpret a client renewing an existing DHCP lease. A lease renewal requests continued use of the address from a DHCP server. It leaves outcome (1) unfulfilled.

C:

Neither step is the requested pair: Read the syslog facility and severity as distinct attributes is for separate which subsystem emitted a device log from its urgency, and Enable SSH using a hostname/domain, local user or AAA and VTY SSH transport is for secure remote CLI login to a Cisco router over IP. Facility indicates message origin while severity indicates importance. The proposed plan misses the two stated outcomes.

D:

The first step covers (1), but the second addresses smooth a bursty outbound application below a contracted rate. Shaping delays packets to meet an average rate rather than immediately dropping all excess. It leaves outcome (2) unfulfilled.

Question 4

At Harborview Logistics, an engineer must explain why newly created VLAN hosts cannot talk across VLANs by default. Which action directly meets this requirement?

  1. Use an appropriate TACACS+ AAA design
  2. Run show vlan brief on the access switch
  3. Add routing through an SVI or router gateway
  4. Choose the port with the lowest root-path cost after tie breakers

Explanation

Correct Answer

C:

A Layer 2 VLAN boundary does not forward IPv4 packets between IP subnets by itself. This is the control that implements the specified requirement.

Incorrect Answers

A:

TACACS+ supports granular device administration authorization and accounting through AAA. That is not sufficient here: A Layer 2 VLAN boundary does not forward IPv4 packets between IP subnets by itself.

B:

The VLAN table lists local VLAN membership for access ports and available VLAN identifiers. That is not sufficient here: A Layer 2 VLAN boundary does not forward IPv4 packets between IP subnets by itself.

D:

Each non-root switch elects one best path toward the root bridge for a spanning-tree instance. That is not sufficient here: A Layer 2 VLAN boundary does not forward IPv4 packets between IP subnets by itself.

Question 5

A campus engineer sees this Ethernet aggregation condition: A two-member EtherChannel trunk must permit VLAN 20 without VLAN policy drift between members. Which statement or response is technically correct?

  1. Configure VLAN 20 on only one physical member and VLAN 30 on the other
  2. Change the EtherChannel hash method to replace trunk VLAN policy
  3. Set a consistent trunk allowed-VLAN policy on the logical Port-channel and compatible members
  4. Enable STP PortFast on one of the switch-to-switch members

Explanation

Correct Answer

C:

The logical Port-channel is the relevant trunk; member interfaces need consistent VLAN settings.

Incorrect Answers

A:

This choice does not follow the observed LACP/port-channel state and would not correct the specified condition.

B:

That explanation does not distinguish this option. “Change the EtherChannel hash method to replace trunk VLAN policy” is an alternative action, but it does not by itself establish the outcome required in this case.

D:

That explanation does not distinguish this option. “Enable STP PortFast on one of the switch-to-switch members” is an alternative action, but it does not by itself establish the outcome required in this case.

Question 6

Oakbridge University needs to apply stateful application-aware inspection at the edge. Which implementation directly addresses that objective without replacing it with a different network control?

  1. Use channels 1, 6 and 11
  2. Inspect MAC table relearning and dynamic aging
  3. Use a next-generation firewall with relevant application policies
  4. Use a WAN transport design with appropriate edge routers

Explanation

Correct Answer

C:

A next-generation firewall can classify application traffic and track sessions before permitting flows. This is the control that implements the specified requirement.

Incorrect Answers

A:

These nominal 20-MHz channel centers reduce adjacent-channel overlap in 2.4 GHz. That is not sufficient here: A next-generation firewall can classify application traffic and track sessions before permitting flows.

B:

The switch relearns a source MAC when frames arrive on the new port and ages idle entries. That is not sufficient here: A next-generation firewall can classify application traffic and track sessions before permitting flows.

D:

WAN connectivity links geographically separated LAN sites via a provider or overlay. That is not sufficient here: A next-generation firewall can classify application traffic and track sessions before permitting flows.

Question 7

A change advisory for North Quay Finance has two requirements: (1) verify the corporate wireless network is enabled after creating a WLAN, and (2) explain why packets not matching any explicit ACL permit are dropped. Which option meets both stated needs?

  1. First, enable the WLAN in the WLC GUI and confirm its broadcast/visibility policy; then configure appropriate peer identity authentication and negotiated cryptographic algorithms.
  2. First, enable the WLAN in the WLC GUI and confirm its broadcast/visibility policy; then account for the implicit deny at the end of the ACL.
  3. First, apply sufficiently long unique passphrases with account protection; then deploy an IPsec site-to-site VPN tunnel.
  4. First, use accounting in an AAA architecture; then account for the implicit deny at the end of the ACL.

Explanation

Correct Answer

B:

Both outcomes are covered: (1) A configured but disabled WLAN does not accept client associations. (2) ACL processing ends with an implicit deny when no preceding ACE matches. Neither action is a substitute for the other.

Incorrect Answers

A:

The first step covers (1), but the second addresses separate VPN encryption from peer authentication in an IPsec negotiation. A usable IPsec tunnel depends on peers authenticating and agreeing on protection parameters. It leaves outcome (2) unfulfilled.

C:

Neither step is the requested pair: Apply sufficiently long unique passphrases with account protection is for improve account defense against guessed short passwords, and Deploy an IPsec site-to-site VPN tunnel is for protect traffic between branch routers over an untrusted WAN. Length, uniqueness and rate controls resist common password guessing attacks. The proposed plan misses the two stated outcomes.

D:

The second step covers (2), but the first addresses record when an administrator logs in and what actions occurred. Accounting generates activity records for later auditing and troubleshooting. It leaves outcome (1) unfulfilled.

Question 8

For the identical prefix 172.28.40.0/24, a router evaluates these route candidates: external BGP (AD 20, via 192.0.2.19); connected (AD 0, directly attached interface); static (AD 1, via 192.0.2.87). Ignore differences in metric across protocols. Which available source takes precedence in the routing table?

  1. external BGP (AD 20, via 192.0.2.19)
  2. static (AD 1, via 192.0.2.87)
  3. connected (AD 0, directly attached interface)
  4. No eligible route remains for this prefix

Explanation

Correct Answer

C:

connected (AD 0) is the eligible same-prefix candidate with the lowest administrative distance; it is preferred over external BGP (AD 20), static (AD 1). A directly connected prefix is attached to a local interface; it does not require a routed next-hop IP.

Incorrect Answers

A:

This external BGP route has AD 20, higher than the eligible connected (AD 0); for the same prefix, Cisco chooses the lower administrative distance.

B:

This static route has AD 1, higher than the eligible connected (AD 0); for the same prefix, Cisco chooses the lower administrative distance.

D:

The connected (AD 0) candidate is still eligible for this exact prefix, so it is incorrect to say that no route remains.

Question 9

A Cisco router must install a static network route for IPv4 subnet 10.118.203.0/27 using reachable next hop 192.0.2.11. Which IOS statement exactly matches that network and next hop?

  1. ip route 10.118.203.31 255.255.255.224 192.0.2.11
  2. ip route 10.118.203.0 255.255.255.224 192.0.2.11
  3. ip route 10.118.203.0 255.255.255.255 192.0.2.11
  4. ip route 10.118.203.0 255.255.255.224 0.0.0.0

Explanation

Correct Answer

B:

IOS static routing uses the network address 10.118.203.0, mask 255.255.255.224 and valid next hop 192.0.2.11.

Incorrect Answers

A:

The statement misuses a broadcast address, /32 host mask or invalid next-hop for this requested network route.

C:

That explanation does not distinguish this option. “ip route 10.118.203.0 255.255.255.255 192.0.2.11” is an alternative action, but it does not by itself establish the outcome required in this case.

D:

That explanation does not distinguish this option. “ip route 10.118.203.0 255.255.255.224 0.0.0.0” is an alternative action, but it does not by itself establish the outcome required in this case.

Question 10

A change request at Summit Research in a proposed design requires the team to select three nonoverlapping 20-MHz 2.4-GHz Wi-Fi channels in a common regulatory domain. Which response best meets this requirement?

  1. Use a Layer 3 switch with switched virtual interfaces and IP routing
  2. Use channels 1, 6 and 11
  3. Use an OS-level container runtime
  4. Configure an IPv6 address and 64-bit prefix with IPv6 routing enabled where required

Explanation

Correct Answer

B:

These nominal 20-MHz channel centers reduce adjacent-channel overlap in 2.4 GHz. This is the control that implements the specified requirement.

Incorrect Answers

A:

SVIs terminate VLAN IP subnets while hardware routing forwards packets between VLANs. That is not sufficient here: These nominal 20-MHz channel centers reduce adjacent-channel overlap in 2.4 GHz.

C:

Containers share the host kernel while isolating processes and dependencies. That is not sufficient here: These nominal 20-MHz channel centers reduce adjacent-channel overlap in 2.4 GHz.

D:

IPv6 interface addressing includes a prefix length and router forwarding needs IPv6 routing capability. That is not sufficient here: These nominal 20-MHz channel centers reduce adjacent-channel overlap in 2.4 GHz.
