Cisco 200-301 Practice Test 108

Question 1070

An operations ticket for Granite Works has two requirements: (1) avoid transmitting an administrator password in cleartext to a router CLI, and (2) secure browser-based device administration on a WLC. Which proposed plan satisfies both outcomes?

  1. First, avoid BPDU filter on unmanaged switch-to-switch links; then treat CDP and LLDP neighbors as directly connected Layer 2 evidence.
  2. First, use SSH rather than Telnet; then keep the alternate port discarding until needed.
  3. First, use SSH rather than Telnet; then use HTTPS management instead of unencrypted HTTP.
  4. First, check AP management IP, DHCP, DNS/discovery and routing to the WLC; then use HTTPS management instead of unencrypted HTTP.

Explanation

Correct Answer

C:

Both outcomes are covered: (1) SSH encrypts remote terminal data and authentication, whereas Telnet does not. (2) HTTPS uses TLS to protect management web sessions in transit. Neither action is a substitute for the other.

Incorrect Answers

A:

Neither step is the requested pair: Avoid BPDU filter on unmanaged switch-to-switch links is for explain why indiscriminate BPDU filtering risks a bridging loop, and Treat CDP and LLDP neighbors as directly connected Layer 2 evidence is for differentiate topology discovery from actual routing reachability. Suppressing BPDUs can hide redundant links from spanning-tree loop prevention. The proposed plan misses the two stated outcomes.

B:

The first step covers (1), but the second addresses understand Rapid PVST+ alternate-port behavior. An alternate port provides a backup path that does not forward user frames during normal loop-free operation. It leaves outcome (2) unfulfilled.

D:

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.

Question 1071

A Cisco extended IPv4 ACL must permit IPv4 packets from EVERY source in subnet 10.48.14.0/28 to any destination, and no sources outside that subnet. Which IOS ACE uses the correct wildcard for this network?

  1. access-list 110 permit ip 10.48.14.0 0.0.3.255 any
  2. access-list 110 permit ip 10.48.14.0 255.255.255.0 any
  3. access-list 110 permit ip 10.48.14.0 0.0.0.127 any
  4. access-list 110 permit ip 10.48.14.0 0.0.0.15 any

Explanation

Correct Answer

D:

ACL wildcard 0.0.0.15 is the inverse of subnet mask 255.255.255.240; the ACE access-list 110 permit ip 10.48.14.0 0.0.0.15 any matches the requested source subnet exactly.

Incorrect Answers

A:

That ACE uses a wildcard with a different number of ignored address bits, so its source range does not equal the required subnet.

B:

That explanation does not distinguish this option. “access-list 110 permit ip 10.48.14.0 255.255.255.0 any” 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. “access-list 110 permit ip 10.48.14.0 0.0.0.127 any” is an alternative action, but it does not by itself establish the outcome required in this case.

Question 1072

A network upgrade at Summit Research has two requirements: (1) inspect DNS resolver settings on a macOS client, and (2) identify the transport three-way handshake behavior. Which plan correctly handles both requirements?

  1. First, use scutil --dns on macOS; then recognize TCP SYN, SYN-ACK, ACK setup.
  2. First, use channels 1, 6 and 11; then recognize TCP SYN, SYN-ACK, ACK setup.
  3. First, use scutil --dns on macOS; then investigate channel interference and signal-to-noise ratio.
  4. First, use show mac address-table to inspect learned entries; then classify 192.168/16 as private IPv4 space.

Explanation

Correct Answer

A:

Both outcomes are covered: (1) scutil --dns reports the active macOS DNS resolver configuration. (2) TCP establishes connection state and initial sequence numbers before data transfer. Neither action is a substitute for the other.

Incorrect Answers

B:

The second step covers (2), but the first addresses select three nonoverlapping 20-MHz 2.4-GHz Wi-Fi channels in a common regulatory domain. These nominal 20-MHz channel centers reduce adjacent-channel overlap in 2.4 GHz. It leaves outcome (1) unfulfilled.

C:

The first step covers (1), but the second addresses explain why a strong received signal can still produce poor WLAN throughput. RF quality and contention affect effective throughput beyond signal strength alone. It leaves outcome (2) unfulfilled.

D:

Neither step is the requested pair: Use show mac address-table to inspect learned entries is for find a host's VLAN and learned switchport from its MAC address, and Classify 192.168/16 as private IPv4 space is for recognize an RFC1918 address in 192.168.0.0/16. The MAC table lists forwarding entries indexed by destination MAC and VLAN. The proposed plan misses the two stated outcomes.

Question 1073

A branch design for Riverside Data has two requirements: (1) verify that a network automation run changed only intended fields, and (2) reduce manual repeated VLAN configuration errors across many devices. Which option addresses both requirements?

  1. First, use before-and-after state validation with explicit invariants; then use controlled network automation with validated templates.
  2. First, protect the Terraform state and its sensitive output values; then use controlled network automation with validated templates.
  3. First, recognize HTTP 401 Unauthorized and inspect credentials; then compare collected device state against desired-state definitions.
  4. First, use before-and-after state validation with explicit invariants; then recognize learned features and forecast outcomes versus predefined static limits.

Explanation

Correct Answer

A:

Both outcomes are covered: (1) Automated configuration still needs evidence that live devices match the authorized target. (2) Automation applies repeatable tested configuration rather than relying on individually typed changes. Neither action is a substitute for the other.

Incorrect Answers

B:

The second step covers (2), but the first addresses understand why a Terraform state file needs secure handling. State can contain infrastructure identifiers and sensitive attributes used to track managed resources. It leaves outcome (1) unfulfilled.

C:

Neither step is the requested pair: Recognize HTTP 401 Unauthorized and inspect credentials is for identify a REST response indicating the caller lacks valid authentication, and Compare collected device state against desired-state definitions is for detect configuration drift across a fleet after a planned rollout. 401 commonly indicates absent/invalid authentication, while 403 often signals insufficient authorization. The proposed plan misses the two stated outcomes.

D:

The first step covers (1), but the second addresses distinguish a trained predictive model from fixed threshold alerting. ML models fit patterns from data, while simple thresholds use explicit static comparison rules. It leaves outcome (2) unfulfilled.

Question 1074

A router receives a packet for destination 10.90.114.103. Its installed forwarding table contains 10.0.0.0/8 via 192.0.2.1; 10.90.0.0/16 via 192.0.2.2; 10.90.114.0/24 via 192.0.2.3; 10.90.114.100/30 via 192.0.2.4. Assume all routes are valid. Which route does ordinary IPv4 forwarding use?

  1. 10.0.0.0/8 via 192.0.2.1
  2. 10.90.0.0/16 via 192.0.2.2
  3. 10.90.114.100/30 via 192.0.2.4
  4. 10.90.114.0/24 via 192.0.2.3

Explanation

Correct Answer

C:

10.90.114.100/30 has /30, the longest prefix that matches 10.90.114.103. Forwarding prefers specificity over other route metadata.

Incorrect Answers

A:

That route also matches but its prefix length is shorter than /30; a more-specific matching prefix wins.

B:

That explanation does not distinguish this option. “10.90.0.0/16 via 192.0.2.2” 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. “10.90.114.0/24 via 192.0.2.3” is an alternative action, but it does not by itself establish the outcome required in this case.

Question 1075

A change advisory for Eastbrook Labs has two requirements: (1) place untagged access switchports into their default VLAN on a factory-reset switch, and (2) verify that a desktop interface belongs to the intended VLAN. Which option meets both stated needs?

  1. First, recognize VLAN 1 as the default access VLAN; then consider FlexConnect operation on supported APs.
  2. First, recognize VLAN 1 as the default access VLAN; then run show vlan brief on the access switch.
  3. First, place access switchports in different VLANs; then run show vlan brief on the access switch.
  4. First, inspect show cdp neighbors detail on an enabled link; then configure matching channel-group IDs with mode active on the intended member ports.

Explanation

Correct Answer

B:

Both outcomes are covered: (1) Cisco default Layer 2 switchports belong to VLAN 1 until explicitly assigned otherwise. (2) The VLAN table lists local VLAN membership for access ports and available VLAN identifiers. Neither action is a substitute for the other.

Incorrect Answers

A:

The first step covers (1), but the second addresses support a remote site that cannot always reach the controller. FlexConnect supports selected local switching and local survivability behavior in branch deployments. It leaves outcome (2) unfulfilled.

C:

The second step covers (2), but the first addresses separate finance endpoints from engineering devices at Layer 2. VLAN membership creates separate Layer 2 broadcast domains even on the same physical switch. It leaves outcome (1) unfulfilled.

D:

Neither step is the requested pair: Inspect show cdp neighbors detail on an enabled link is for discover a neighboring Cisco switch's device name and management address, and Configure matching channel-group IDs with mode active on the intended member ports is for bundle two compatible physical Ethernet switchports into one logical LACP link. CDP exchanges Cisco neighbor information at Layer 2, including platform and management identifiers. The proposed plan misses the two stated outcomes.

Question 1076

A field device is configured as 172.31.4.190/28. Which dotted-decimal subnet mask is equivalent to /28?

  1. 255.255.255.248
  2. 255.255.255.224
  3. 255.255.255.0
  4. 255.255.255.240

Explanation

Correct Answer

D:

Twenty-eight network bits set to one produce 255.255.255.240, leaving four host bits and 16 total addresses in each subnet.

Incorrect Answers

A:

That corresponds to /29, with three host bits.

B:

That corresponds to /27, with five host bits.

C:

That corresponds to /24, covering a much larger address block.

Question 1077

At Greenfield Services, an engineer must explain why a legacy repeater shared across several hosts has collisions. What action meets this technical need?

  1. Use a collapsed-core two-tier campus design
  2. Use a next-generation firewall with relevant application policies
  3. Use the appropriate FF00::/8 multicast destination
  4. Recognize a shared half-duplex Ethernet collision domain

Explanation

Correct Answer

D:

A repeater repeats bits across hosts, so overlapping transmissions contend for the same medium. This is the control that implements the specified requirement.

Incorrect Answers

A:

The access layer connects endpoints while the collapsed core aggregates access and provides routing. That is not sufficient here: A repeater repeats bits across hosts, so overlapping transmissions contend for the same medium.

B:

A next-generation firewall can classify application traffic and track sessions before permitting flows. That is not sufficient here: A repeater repeats bits across hosts, so overlapping transmissions contend for the same medium.

C:

IPv6 multicast addresses identify groups, unlike a broadcast address. That is not sufficient here: A repeater repeats bits across hosts, so overlapping transmissions contend for the same medium.

Question 1078

Granite Works needs to reduce employee susceptibility to credential phishing. Which implementation directly addresses that objective without replacing it with a different network control?

  1. Run periodic phishing-awareness training and simulated exercises
  2. Add an explicit permit for eligible remaining traffic
  3. Use an extended ACL permit tcp with the server destination and eq 443
  4. Recognize WPA as older and prefer stronger supported alternatives

Explanation

Correct Answer

A:

User education helps people identify suspicious login requests and social-engineering cues. This is the control that implements the specified requirement.

Incorrect Answers

B:

Without a final permit, the implicit deny blocks traffic not otherwise matched. That is not sufficient here: User education helps people identify suspicious login requests and social-engineering cues.

C:

An extended ACL can distinguish HTTPS TCP traffic from other server ports. That is not sufficient here: User education helps people identify suspicious login requests and social-engineering cues.

D:

WPA introduced improvements over WEP but its TKIP design is weaker than modern WPA2/WPA3. That is not sufficient here: User education helps people identify suspicious login requests and social-engineering cues.

Question 1079

The WLC contains a correctly configured secure SSID "Field-Team", with its required WPA2 policy and client VLAN. A maintenance action left the WLAN administratively disabled; phones cannot discover or join it. What is the least disruptive GUI repair?

  1. Create a second open SSID with a different name and have users join it.
  2. Modify the native VLAN on all wired trunks before checking WLAN status.
  3. Delete the AAA policy and replace it with no authentication to enable discovery.
  4. Enable that existing WLAN/SSID and verify association, leaving the approved security and VLAN profiles unchanged.

Explanation

Correct Answer

D:

The immediate fault is the administrative disable flag; re-enabling the existing protected WLAN restores advertisement/association.

Incorrect Answers

A:

An open replacement breaks the approved security requirement and leaves the disabled corporate WLAN unresolved.

B:

The documented issue is the WLAN disabled state, not a wired native-VLAN mismatch.

C:

Authentication settings do not require removal to correct an administratively disabled WLAN.

Question 1080

A change advisory for Baypoint Retail has two requirements: (1) install a route toward an adjacent directly connected point-to-point interface, and (2) set an OSPF router ID explicitly to avoid unexpected election. Which plan correctly handles both requirements?

  1. First, allow equal-cost multipath when the platform and configuration permit it; then give the backup static route AD higher than OSPF's 110.
  2. First, configure the target prefix with the valid outgoing point-to-point interface; then configure router-id under the OSPF process and restart the process when required.
  3. First, configure the target prefix with the valid outgoing point-to-point interface; then compare their configured router IDs.
  4. First, inspect the via next-hop field in show ip route; then configure router-id under the OSPF process and restart the process when required.

Explanation

Correct Answer

B:

Both outcomes are covered: (1) On a point-to-point interface, the route can use the egress interface without Ethernet ARP for each host. (2) An explicitly configured 32-bit router ID has priority over automatic loopback/interface selection. Neither action is a substitute for the other.

Incorrect Answers

A:

Neither step is the requested pair: Allow equal-cost multipath when the platform and configuration permit it is for retain two equal-cost eligible OSPF routes for one prefix, and Give the backup static route AD higher than OSPF's 110 is for provide a static backup only if an OSPF route to the same prefix disappears. ECMP can install several equally preferred next hops to the same exact prefix. The proposed plan misses the two stated outcomes.

C:

The first step covers (1), but the second addresses identify which router becomes the OSPF DR among two equal-priority routers. Higher router ID wins the DR election priority tie when both are otherwise eligible. It leaves outcome (2) unfulfilled.

D:

The second step covers (2), but the first addresses find the next-hop IP for a learned destination prefix. The routing-table next hop identifies the neighbor to which packets should be forwarded. It leaves outcome (1) unfulfilled.
