Question 1000

A routing table shows S 172.16.8.0/24 via 192.0.2.2 and C 192.0.2.0/24 on GigabitEthernet0/0. What does the connected entry provide for the static route?

  1. It causes all 172.16.8.0/24 hosts to become locally connected on GigabitEthernet0/0.
  2. It provides a reachable local path for resolving next hop 192.0.2.2 on GigabitEthernet0/0.
  3. It changes the static route into a connected C route for 172.16.8.0/24.
  4. It forces the next hop to use the default route even though it is directly connected.

Explanation

Correct Answer

B:

The static route points to an IP on the connected subnet; the router resolves that next hop to an on-link adjacency before forwarding remote-prefix traffic.

Incorrect Answers

A:

Only the gateway is on-link; the 172.16.8.0/24 destination remains reached through a router.

C:

Recursive next-hop resolution does not alter the static source code of a remote route.

D:

The next-hop IP is in the connected /24 and needs no unrelated default route.

Question 1001

A network upgrade at Eastbrook Labs has two requirements: (1) check the selected route to a destination on Linux, and (2) apply stateful application-aware inspection at the edge. Which option addresses both requirements?

  1. First, use IPv6 anycast with routing toward the common address; then use a next-generation firewall with relevant application policies.
  2. First, run ip route get with the destination IP; then use compatible multimode fiber for the specified reach.
  3. First, use separate virtual routing and forwarding instances; then use point-to-point Ethernet interfaces with matching capabilities.
  4. First, run ip route get with the destination IP; then use a next-generation firewall with relevant application policies.

Explanation

Correct Answer

D:

Both outcomes are covered: (1) Linux route lookup reveals the chosen outgoing interface and gateway for that address. (2) A next-generation firewall can classify application traffic and track sessions before permitting flows. Neither action is a substitute for the other.

Incorrect Answers

A:

The second step covers (2), but the first addresses have several servers share one IPv6 service address delivered to the nearest instance. Anycast uses one unicast-format address on multiple nodes and routing selects a reachable instance. It leaves outcome (1) unfulfilled.

B:

The first step covers (1), but the second addresses connect short-distance rack equipment using optical transceivers. Multimode fiber and matching optics suit many short data-center or campus uplinks. It leaves outcome (2) unfulfilled.

C:

Neither step is the requested pair: Use separate virtual routing and forwarding instances is for hold independent overlapping IP route tables on one router, and Use point-to-point Ethernet interfaces with matching capabilities is for interconnect two Ethernet switch uplink ports with dedicated links. VRFs logically isolate routing tables even when interfaces share one physical platform. The proposed plan misses the two stated outcomes.

Question 1002

A network upgrade at Harborview Logistics has two requirements: (1) choose a static route over an OSPF route to the exact same prefix when both are valid, and (2) install a route toward an adjacent directly connected point-to-point interface. Which proposed plan satisfies both outcomes?

  1. First, make their OSPF interface timers compatible; then configure an FHRP such as HSRP or VRRP on the gateway VLAN.
  2. First, compare administrative distances of static 1 and OSPF 110; then expect an FHRP backup peer to assume the virtual gateway role.
  3. First, use router ospf with network statements and wildcard masks for area 0; then configure the target prefix with the valid outgoing point-to-point interface.
  4. First, compare administrative distances of static 1 and OSPF 110; then configure the target prefix with the valid outgoing point-to-point interface.

Explanation

Correct Answer

D:

Both outcomes are covered: (1) Administrative distance selects the preferred source of identical-prefix routes before comparing metrics. (2) On a point-to-point interface, the route can use the egress interface without Ethernet ARP for each host. Neither action is a substitute for the other.

Incorrect Answers

A:

Neither step is the requested pair: Make their OSPF interface timers compatible is for diagnose OSPF peers with different hello/dead intervals, and Configure an FHRP such as HSRP or VRRP on the gateway VLAN is for explain why two redundant routers alone do not automatically preserve the clients' default gateway. Mismatched OSPF hello and dead intervals can prevent neighbor adjacency formation. The proposed plan misses the two stated outcomes.

B:

The first step covers (1), but the second addresses recognize a standby gateway takeover after the active router fails. First-hop redundancy coordinates gateway ownership and failover for attached hosts. It leaves outcome (2) unfulfilled.

C:

The second step covers (2), but the first addresses enable single-area OSPF on matching IPv4 interfaces. OSPF network statements select interfaces for the specified area using address and wildcard matching. It leaves outcome (1) unfulfilled.

Question 1003

Summit Research needs to verify which ACL entries have matches during traffic tests. Which implementation directly addresses that objective without replacing it with a different network control?

  1. Configure switchport port-security maximum 2 on the access interface
  2. Configure appropriate peer identity authentication and negotiated cryptographic algorithms
  3. Inspect show access-lists counters on the device
  4. Deny TCP destination port 23 with the intended host match, and permit TCP 22 as required

Explanation

Correct Answer

C:

IOS ACL match counters can show which permit or deny clauses see selected traffic. This is the control that implements the specified requirement.

Incorrect Answers

A:

Port security can cap how many source MAC addresses the port accepts. That is not sufficient here: IOS ACL match counters can show which permit or deny clauses see selected traffic.

B:

A usable IPsec tunnel depends on peers authenticating and agreeing on protection parameters. That is not sufficient here: IOS ACL match counters can show which permit or deny clauses see selected traffic.

D:

TCP port 23 identifies Telnet, while SSH normally uses TCP port 22. That is not sufficient here: IOS ACL match counters can show which permit or deny clauses see selected traffic.

Question 1004

Willowbrook Transit needs to explain the logical segmentation created over a shared routed fabric. Which implementation directly addresses that objective without replacing it with a different network control?

  1. Send an authenticated HTTP GET to the resource URI
  2. Use a northbound API
  3. Distinguish distributed device data planes from centralized management/control functions
  4. Use an overlay network or virtual segmentation policy

Explanation

Correct Answer

D:

An overlay encodes logical connectivity and isolation on top of the underlay. This is the control that implements the specified requirement.

Incorrect Answers

A:

GET retrieves the representation of a resource without intending to create it. That is not sufficient here: An overlay encodes logical connectivity and isolation on top of the underlay.

B:

Northbound APIs expose controller abstractions to higher-level orchestration or applications. That is not sufficient here: An overlay encodes logical connectivity and isolation on top of the underlay.

C:

Depending on architecture, devices can continue forwarding installed state when the controller is unreachable. That is not sufficient here: An overlay encodes logical connectivity and isolation on top of the underlay.

Question 1005

Switches on one Rapid PVST+ VLAN instance advertise these bridge IDs: SW-1 (priority 20480, MAC 8632a2aa3724); SW-2 (priority 16384, MAC 76e27fa8292e); SW-3 (priority 32768, MAC 8c7444aae4aa); SW-4 (priority 12288, MAC 46168e5f62f1). They are powered on with no previous root. Which switch is the elected root?

  1. SW-4 (priority 12288, MAC 46168e5f62f1)
  2. SW-3 (priority 32768, MAC 8c7444aae4aa)
  3. SW-2 (priority 16384, MAC 76e27fa8292e)
  4. SW-1 (priority 20480, MAC 8632a2aa3724)

Explanation

Correct Answer

A:

The STP root is the switch with the numerically lowest bridge ID: priority is compared first, followed by MAC on ties. SW-4 has the lowest priority 12288.

Incorrect Answers

B:

Its advertised priority is greater than the winner 12288, and no tie breaker changes the result.

C:

That explanation does not distinguish this option. “SW-2 (priority 16384, MAC 76e27fa8292e)” 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. “SW-1 (priority 20480, MAC 8632a2aa3724)” is an alternative action, but it does not by itself establish the outcome required in this case.

Question 1006

An engineer configures a static route using a next-hop address that is not reachable through any active connected or resolved route. The route is absent from the usable IPv4 RIB. What should be checked before changing its administrative distance?

  1. Raise the static route distance to 254 so IOS installs it even without a path to the gateway.
  2. Verify that the configured next hop is reachable and can be recursively resolved on an active forwarding path.
  3. Change the prefix mask to /0 without validating the gateway.
  4. Disable routing-protocol debugging because it prevents static routes from installing.

Explanation

Correct Answer

B:

A valid static route needs a resolvable next-hop or usable exit interface; altering distance does not manufacture reachability.

Incorrect Answers

A:

A lower-preference administrative distance cannot repair an unresolved next hop.

C:

A broader destination prefix does not resolve the unusable next-hop address and risks misrouting other destinations.

D:

Debug output is not the stated cause; the unresolvable next hop directly explains the missing route.

Question 1007

During a review, the administrator for Granite Works is asked to contrast manually configured per-device control logic with controller-based management. Which approach satisfies the precise requirement?

  1. Use Ansible playbooks and modules with device groups
  2. Use a JSON array enclosed in square brackets
  3. Use a controller to maintain centralized policy and abstract device configuration
  4. Keep traffic on programmed device forwarding paths

Explanation

Correct Answer

C:

Controller-managed networking can coordinate policy across devices instead of requiring each device configured separately. This is the control that implements the specified requirement.

Incorrect Answers

A:

Ansible inventories and playbooks run repeatable tasks across selected managed devices. That is not sufficient here: Controller-managed networking can coordinate policy across devices instead of requiring each device configured separately.

B:

JSON arrays contain ordered elements which can be objects, scalars or other arrays. That is not sufficient here: Controller-managed networking can coordinate policy across devices instead of requiring each device configured separately.

D:

A controller supplies decisions/policies; deployed devices usually perform packet forwarding. That is not sufficient here: Controller-managed networking can coordinate policy across devices instead of requiring each device configured separately.

Question 1008

A network upgrade at Meridian Insurance has two requirements: (1) connect a lightweight AP expecting one untagged management VLAN on an access port, and (2) connect an IP phone and attached PC using distinct voice and data VLANs. Which plan correctly handles both requirements?

  1. First, use a supported monitor-mode AP; then choose the port with the lowest root-path cost after tie breakers.
  2. First, configure the AP switchport for the intended management access VLAN; then configure the switchport data access VLAN and switchport voice VLAN.
  3. First, select the switch with the lowest priority plus MAC bridge identifier; then configure the switchport data access VLAN and switchport voice VLAN.
  4. First, configure the AP switchport for the intended management access VLAN; then remove it from the trunk allowed VLAN list.

Explanation

Correct Answer

B:

Both outcomes are covered: (1) The AP needs a reachable management segment to discover and communicate with the controller. (2) A voice VLAN allows supported phones to tag voice traffic separately while forwarding the PC's data VLAN. Neither action is a substitute for the other.

Incorrect Answers

A:

Neither step is the requested pair: Use a supported monitor-mode AP is for detect unauthorized wireless transmitters without serving client associations, and Choose the port with the lowest root-path cost after tie breakers is for recognize the root port of a non-root bridge. A monitor-mode radio can scan spectrum and clients for management/security without providing ordinary access. The proposed plan misses the two stated outcomes.

C:

The second step covers (2), but the first addresses identify the spanning-tree root switch from bridge IDs. STP elects the lowest bridge ID as the root for a spanning-tree instance. It leaves outcome (1) unfulfilled.

D:

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.

Question 1009

A change request at Eastbrook Labs during a fault isolation test requires the team to avoid losing traceability when automation changes routing policy. Which response best meets this requirement?

  1. Use a controller to maintain centralized policy and abstract device configuration
  2. Store automation definitions under version control with deployment records
  3. Use braces, brackets and string keys rather than XML tags
  4. Keep the underlay network operational for packet transport

Explanation

Correct Answer

B:

Versioned automation allows change review, reproducible rollout and rollback. This is the control that implements the specified requirement.

Incorrect Answers

A:

Controller-managed networking can coordinate policy across devices instead of requiring each device configured separately. That is not sufficient here: Versioned automation allows change review, reproducible rollout and rollback.

C:

JSON objects and arrays have their own literal syntax distinct from XML markup. That is not sufficient here: Versioned automation allows change review, reproducible rollout and rollback.

D:

Controller-based policies still rely on forwarding infrastructure and physical connectivity. That is not sufficient here: Versioned automation allows change review, reproducible rollout and rollback.

Question 1010

An acceptance check at Hillcrest Utilities has two requirements: (1) avoid storing new local user credentials as plain text, and (2) block only inbound Telnet to a server without blocking SSH. Which proposed plan satisfies both outcomes?

  1. First, create username entries with the secret option and appropriate privilege; then enable the WLAN in the WLC GUI and confirm its broadcast/visibility policy.
  2. First, use badge-controlled physical access with audited entry logs; then inspect show access-lists counters on the device.
  3. First, use authenticated local users or centralized AAA over SSH; then deny TCP destination port 23 with the intended host match, and permit TCP 22 as required.
  4. First, create username entries with the secret option and appropriate privilege; then deny TCP destination port 23 with the intended host match, and permit TCP 22 as required.

Explanation

Correct Answer

D:

Both outcomes are covered: (1) IOS username secret stores a protected password hash rather than literal cleartext configuration. (2) TCP port 23 identifies Telnet, while SSH normally uses TCP port 22. Neither action is a substitute for the other.

Incorrect Answers

A:

The first step covers (1), but the second addresses verify the corporate wireless network is enabled after creating a WLAN. A configured but disabled WLAN does not accept client associations. It leaves outcome (2) unfulfilled.

B:

Neither step is the requested pair: Use badge-controlled physical access with audited entry logs is for prevent unauthorized visitors from entering a network equipment room, and Inspect show access-lists counters on the device is for verify which ACL entries have matches during traffic tests. Physical access controls reduce direct device tampering or console misuse. The proposed plan misses the two stated outcomes.

C:

The second step covers (2), but the first addresses stop unprotected VTY authentication with a shared weak line password. Per-user authenticated access supports accountability and avoids weak shared credentials. It leaves outcome (1) unfulfilled.
