Cisco 200-301 Practice Test 117

Question 1160

A distribution switch’s trunk carries VLAN 60, but the neighboring access switch has not created or activated VLAN 60 locally. What configuration item should be corrected before treating this as a routing failure?

  1. Create/activate VLAN 60 on the receiving switch and verify the trunk carries it.
  2. Change the router’s default route before checking VLAN database
  3. Set both trunks to access mode in VLAN 1
  4. Disable link-state event logging on the access switch

Explanation

Correct Answer

A:

A VLAN can be permitted on the trunk but still lack a corresponding active Layer 2 domain on one switch. Its local VLAN state must be correct for forwarding.

Incorrect Answers

B:

A missing Layer 2 VLAN is not fixed by unrelated Layer 3 default routing.

C:

That would eliminate the required VLAN transport rather than establishing VLAN 60.

D:

Logging settings do not create a missing VLAN or admit tagged frames.

Question 1161

During a review, the administrator for Sable Ridge Manufacturing is asked to explain the absence of congestion and delivery guarantees in a datagram protocol. Which approach satisfies the precise requirement?

  1. Recognize UDP's connectionless best-effort transport
  2. Inspect physical cabling, transceivers, and interface counters
  3. Use separate virtual routing and forwarding instances
  4. Split the /24 into eight blocks of 32 addresses

Explanation

Correct Answer

A:

UDP sends datagrams without TCP-style acknowledgments, sequencing or congestion recovery. This is the control that implements the specified requirement.

Incorrect Answers

B:

Corrupt Ethernet frames commonly indicate physical media, cabling, or signaling faults. That is not sufficient here: UDP sends datagrams without TCP-style acknowledgments, sequencing or congestion recovery.

C:

VRFs logically isolate routing tables even when interfaces share one physical platform. That is not sufficient here: UDP sends datagrams without TCP-style acknowledgments, sequencing or congestion recovery.

D:

Borrowing three host bits creates eight /27 subnets, each normally offering 30 usable hosts. That is not sufficient here: UDP sends datagrams without TCP-style acknowledgments, sequencing or congestion recovery.

Question 1162

A router receives a packet for destination 10.35.198.197. Its installed forwarding table contains 10.0.0.0/8 via 192.0.2.1; 10.35.198.0/24 via 192.0.2.2; 10.35.198.192/28 via 192.0.2.3; 10.35.198.196/30 via 192.0.2.4. Assume all routes are valid. Which route does ordinary IPv4 forwarding use?

  1. 10.35.198.0/24 via 192.0.2.2
  2. 10.35.198.196/30 via 192.0.2.4
  3. 10.35.198.192/28 via 192.0.2.3
  4. 10.0.0.0/8 via 192.0.2.1

Explanation

Correct Answer

B:

10.35.198.196/30 has /30, the longest prefix that matches 10.35.198.197. 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.

C:

That explanation does not distinguish this option. “10.35.198.192/28 via 192.0.2.3” 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. “10.0.0.0/8 via 192.0.2.1” is an alternative action, but it does not by itself establish the outcome required in this case.

Question 1163

A router receives a packet for destination 10.78.170.62. Its installed forwarding table contains 10.0.0.0/8 via 192.0.2.1; 10.78.0.0/16 via 192.0.2.2; 10.78.170.48/28 via 192.0.2.3; 10.78.170.60/30 via 192.0.2.4. Assume all routes are valid. Which route does ordinary IPv4 forwarding use?

  1. 10.78.0.0/16 via 192.0.2.2
  2. 10.78.170.48/28 via 192.0.2.3
  3. 10.0.0.0/8 via 192.0.2.1
  4. 10.78.170.60/30 via 192.0.2.4

Explanation

Correct Answer

D:

10.78.170.60/30 has /30, the longest prefix that matches 10.78.170.62. 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. “10.78.170.48/28 via 192.0.2.3” 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. “10.0.0.0/8 via 192.0.2.1” is an alternative action, but it does not by itself establish the outcome required in this case.

Question 1164

A branch design for Baypoint Retail has two requirements: (1) prevent a downstream switch from claiming the root role over an uplink, and (2) avoid a blocked STP link unexpectedly forwarding after BPDUs disappear. Which plan correctly handles both requirements?

  1. First, enable Root Guard on the intended designated port; then enable Loop Guard on eligible non-designated spanning-tree links.
  2. First, select the switch with the lowest priority plus MAC bridge identifier; then configure the same switchport trunk native vlan on both trunk ends.
  3. First, use show interfaces trunk; then enable Loop Guard on eligible non-designated spanning-tree links.
  4. First, enable Root Guard on the intended designated port; then create and enable the WLAN/SSID in the controller GUI.

Explanation

Correct Answer

A:

Both outcomes are covered: (1) Root Guard holds the port in a root-inconsistent state if superior BPDUs arrive. (2) Loop Guard can hold a port in loop-inconsistent state when BPDUs cease unexpectedly. Neither action is a substitute for the other.

Incorrect Answers

B:

Neither step is the requested pair: Select the switch with the lowest priority plus MAC bridge identifier is for identify the spanning-tree root switch from bridge IDs, and Configure the same switchport trunk native vlan on both trunk ends is for change the untagged VLAN on a trunk to match a remote neighbor. STP elects the lowest bridge ID as the root for a spanning-tree instance. The proposed plan misses the two stated outcomes.

C:

The second step covers (2), but the first addresses confirm which VLANs are actively forwarded over a trunk. The command displays operational trunks, encapsulation/native VLAN and allowed/active VLANs. It leaves outcome (1) unfulfilled.

D:

The first step covers (1), but the second addresses publish a wireless network name for corporate users from a WLC. The WLAN profile binds an SSID to its wireless security and policy configuration. It leaves outcome (2) unfulfilled.

Question 1165

On an OSPFv2 point-to-point link, R1 and R2 exchange Hellos and reach ExStart/Exchange but never reach FULL. R1 uses an interface MTU of 1500 bytes and R2 uses 9000 bytes; the devices reject incompatible database-description packets. What is the best durable fix?

  1. Change both OSPF router IDs to the same value.
  2. Align supported interface MTU values end to end and retry the OSPF database exchange.
  3. Make the link passive in both OSPF configurations.
  4. Disable the OSPF area statement on R1 while keeping it on R2.

Explanation

Correct Answer

B:

Cisco describes MTU mismatch as a common cause of neighbors stuck at ExStart/Exchange; matching supported interface MTUs addresses the incompatibility.

Incorrect Answers

A:

Matching router IDs would create an identity conflict rather than repair database exchange.

C:

Passive interfaces suppress Hellos and would eliminate adjacency attempts.

D:

OSPF requires both interfaces in a compatible area; disabling it on one side breaks the neighbor relationship.

Question 1166

A change advisory for Granite Works has two requirements: (1) carry multiple VLANs between distribution and access switches, and (2) change the untagged VLAN on a trunk to match a remote neighbor. Which proposed plan satisfies both outcomes?

  1. First, set the opposite peer to LACP active; then configure the same switchport trunk native vlan on both trunk ends.
  2. First, configure a trunk using 802.1Q with needed allowed VLANs; then configure the same switchport trunk native vlan on both trunk ends.
  3. First, configure a trunk using 802.1Q with needed allowed VLANs; then configure switchport mode access and switchport access vlan 20.
  4. First, use HTTPS management instead of unencrypted HTTP; then configure a supported WPA2-Personal PSK WLAN.

Explanation

Correct Answer

B:

Both outcomes are covered: (1) An 802.1Q trunk tags most VLAN frames so several VLANs can share one interswitch link. (2) Native VLAN mismatch can place untagged traffic into different Layer 2 broadcast domains. Neither action is a substitute for the other.

Incorrect Answers

A:

The second step covers (2), but the first addresses form an LACP channel where one side is passive. Passive/ passive cannot initiate an LACP exchange, while an active side can negotiate with passive. It leaves outcome (1) unfulfilled.

C:

The first step covers (1), but the second addresses provide an access switchport for a desktop in VLAN 20. An access port sends and receives the configured user VLAN without a data VLAN tag to the ordinary endpoint. It leaves outcome (2) unfulfilled.

D:

Neither step is the requested pair: Use HTTPS management instead of unencrypted HTTP is for secure browser-based device administration on a WLC, and Configure a supported WPA2-Personal PSK WLAN is for connect enterprise WLAN clients using a passphrase rather than per-user RADIUS credentials. HTTPS uses TLS to protect management web sessions in transit. The proposed plan misses the two stated outcomes.

Question 1167

A change advisory for Hillcrest Utilities has two requirements: (1) explain why two OSPF routers remain stuck in EXSTART, and (2) make two routers with mismatched OSPF area IDs become neighbors. Which option meets both stated needs?

  1. First, investigate interface MTU mismatch and adjacency parameters; then find the default 0.0.0.0/0 route and gateway of last resort.
  2. First, investigate interface MTU mismatch and adjacency parameters; then configure the matching OSPF area number on their shared link.
  3. First, configure passive-interface on the relevant OSPF interface; then configure the matching OSPF area number on their shared link.
  4. First, use OSPF interface path cost for SPF path choice and AD for source preference; then configure ip route 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 192.0.2.1.

Explanation

Correct Answer

B:

Both outcomes are covered: (1) OSPF database description negotiation can fail when peers disagree on MTU. (2) OSPF neighbors must agree on the area for an eligible adjacency. Neither action is a substitute for the other.

Incorrect Answers

A:

The first step covers (1), but the second addresses identify the route of last resort in an IPv4 routing table. A default route handles destinations not covered by a more-specific installed route. It leaves outcome (2) unfulfilled.

C:

The second step covers (2), but the first addresses prevent an interface from sending OSPF hello packets while still advertising its connected network. Passive interfaces suppress OSPF neighbor hello formation while eligible network prefixes remain advertised. It leaves outcome (1) unfulfilled.

D:

Neither step is the requested pair: Use OSPF interface path cost for SPF path choice and AD for source preference is for avoid confusing OSPF routing cost with administrative distance, and Configure ip route 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 192.0.2.1 is for install a static default IPv4 route to upstream neighbor 192.0.2.1. OSPF metric selects routes within OSPF, while AD selects between separate routing sources. The proposed plan misses the two stated outcomes.

Question 1168

A change request at Eastbrook Labs during network acceptance testing requires the team to disable a switchport after a port-security violation. Which response best meets this requirement?

  1. Account for the implicit deny at the end of the ACL
  2. Use authorization policies for the requested action
  3. Use switchport port-security violation shutdown
  4. Recognize IPsec ESP confidentiality and integrity protection

Explanation

Correct Answer

C:

The shutdown violation mode puts the protected interface into an error-disabled state on violation. This is the control that implements the specified requirement.

Incorrect Answers

A:

ACL processing ends with an implicit deny when no preceding ACE matches. That is not sufficient here: The shutdown violation mode puts the protected interface into an error-disabled state on violation.

B:

Authorization grants or denies specific operations after identity is established. That is not sufficient here: The shutdown violation mode puts the protected interface into an error-disabled state on violation.

D:

ESP can encrypt payloads and provide authenticated integrity for protected packets. That is not sufficient here: The shutdown violation mode puts the protected interface into an error-disabled state on violation.

Question 1169

A change request at North Quay Finance while preparing a network upgrade requires the team to identify the protocol that maps a host name to an IPv4 address. Which option directly addresses the stated need?

  1. Configure remote syslog logging host and appropriate transport settings
  2. Classify packets using matching criteria such as DSCP or ACL
  3. Use show ip nat translations on the translating router
  4. Use DNS A record lookup

Explanation

Correct Answer

D:

DNS maps names to addresses, while DHCP leases IP settings and does not replace DNS. This is the control that implements the specified requirement.

Incorrect Answers

A:

A syslog collector aggregates event messages across devices for correlation and retention. That is not sufficient here: DNS maps names to addresses, while DHCP leases IP settings and does not replace DNS.

B:

QoS classification places packets into classes for later marking, queuing or policing actions. That is not sufficient here: DNS maps names to addresses, while DHCP leases IP settings and does not replace DNS.

C:

The NAT translation table lists original and translated addresses and ports for active entries. That is not sufficient here: DNS maps names to addresses, while DHCP leases IP settings and does not replace DNS.

Question 1170

An operations ticket for North Quay Finance has two requirements: (1) identify a risk from using poor-quality network telemetry to train AI, and (2) predict upcoming interface congestion from historical telemetry. Which proposed plan satisfies both outcomes?

  1. First, validate data quality, missing values and representative baselines; then recognize HTTP 401 Unauthorized and inspect credentials.
  2. First, validate data quality, missing values and representative baselines; then use predictive analytics or a learned forecasting model.
  3. First, distinguish distributed device data planes from centralized management/control functions; then store automation definitions under version control with deployment records.
  4. First, recognize consistent policy deployment through a central controller; then use predictive analytics or a learned forecasting model.

Explanation

Correct Answer

B:

Both outcomes are covered: (1) Incomplete or biased telemetry can produce misleading predictive network recommendations. (2) Predictive ML estimates future conditions from measured historical trends. Neither action is a substitute for the other.

Incorrect Answers

A:

The first step covers (1), but the second addresses identify a REST response indicating the caller lacks valid authentication. 401 commonly indicates absent/invalid authentication, while 403 often signals insufficient authorization. It leaves outcome (2) unfulfilled.

C:

Neither step is the requested pair: Distinguish distributed device data planes from centralized management/control functions is for explain why controller failure does not necessarily stop all existing forwarding, and Store automation definitions under version control with deployment records is for avoid losing traceability when automation changes routing policy. Depending on architecture, devices can continue forwarding installed state when the controller is unreachable. The proposed plan misses the two stated outcomes.

D:

The second step covers (2), but the first addresses identify one benefit of controller-based networks over traditional manual operations. A controller can translate intent into coordinated device settings across a network. It leaves outcome (1) unfulfilled.
