Cisco 200-301 Practice Test 21

Question 200

During a review, the administrator for North Quay Finance is asked to smooth a bursty outbound application below a contracted rate. Which approach satisfies the precise requirement?

  1. Expect the client to send DHCPREQUEST and receive DHCPACK on success
  2. Recognize TFTP lacks encryption and authentication
  3. Apply traffic shaping to buffer and pace excess packets
  4. Inspect show ntp associations and show ntp status

Explanation

Correct Answer

C:

Shaping delays packets to meet an average rate rather than immediately dropping all excess. This is the control that implements the specified requirement.

Incorrect Answers

A:

A lease renewal requests continued use of the address from a DHCP server. That is not sufficient here: Shaping delays packets to meet an average rate rather than immediately dropping all excess.

B:

TFTP's simplicity leaves transfers exposed without a separate secure transport boundary. That is not sufficient here: Shaping delays packets to meet an average rate rather than immediately dropping all excess.

D:

NTP status shows synchronization state, peers and stratum information. That is not sufficient here: Shaping delays packets to meet an average rate rather than immediately dropping all excess.

Question 201

An acceptance check at Cascade Health has two requirements: (1) detect active port scanning that precedes unwanted access attempts, and (2) allow the rest of an ACL's traffic after a specific deny. Which option addresses both requirements?

  1. First, monitor traffic for reconnaissance patterns and apply edge controls; then add an explicit permit for eligible remaining traffic.
  2. First, use exec-timeout on VTY lines; then add an explicit permit for eligible remaining traffic.
  3. First, deploy an IPsec site-to-site VPN tunnel; then separate authentication from authorization in AAA.
  4. First, monitor traffic for reconnaissance patterns and apply edge controls; then install vendor-approved security patches or mitigations.

Explanation

Correct Answer

A:

Both outcomes are covered: (1) Scanning probes service exposure and can be an early indicator of attempted intrusion. (2) Without a final permit, the implicit deny blocks traffic not otherwise matched. Neither action is a substitute for the other.

Incorrect Answers

B:

The second step covers (2), but the first addresses configure an idle timeout for remote administrative sessions. An EXEC timeout closes inactive terminal sessions instead of leaving a management login open indefinitely. It leaves outcome (1) unfulfilled.

C:

Neither step is the requested pair: Deploy an IPsec site-to-site VPN tunnel is for protect traffic between branch routers over an untrusted WAN, and Separate authentication from authorization in AAA is for avoid confusing proof of identity with permission to change a VLAN. Site-to-site IPsec protects routed flows between security gateways over an untrusted underlay. The proposed plan misses the two stated outcomes.

D:

The first step covers (1), but the second addresses limit risk from a publicly disclosed software CVE on network gear. Fixing or mitigating a known vulnerability reduces exploitability on exposed devices. It leaves outcome (2) unfulfilled.

Question 202

An acceptance check at Stonebridge Learning has two requirements: (1) connect an IP phone and attached PC using distinct voice and data VLANs, and (2) bundle two compatible physical Ethernet switchports into one logical LACP link. Which proposed plan satisfies both outcomes?

  1. First, map the WLAN to its intended client VLAN or policy profile; then keep the alternate port discarding until needed.
  2. First, configure the switchport data access VLAN and switchport voice VLAN; then configure matching channel-group IDs with mode active on the intended member ports.
  3. First, configure the switchport data access VLAN and switchport voice VLAN; then apply an appropriate WLC wireless QoS profile.
  4. First, run show vlan brief on the access switch; then configure matching channel-group IDs with mode active on the intended member ports.

Explanation

Correct Answer

B:

Both outcomes are covered: (1) A voice VLAN allows supported phones to tag voice traffic separately while forwarding the PC's data VLAN. (2) LACP negotiates a logical port-channel while distributing eligible flows across member links. Neither action is a substitute for the other.

Incorrect Answers

A:

Neither step is the requested pair: Map the WLAN to its intended client VLAN or policy profile is for assign different WLAN client traffic to an approved wired segment, and Keep the alternate port discarding until needed is for understand Rapid PVST+ alternate-port behavior. Controller WLAN-to-VLAN mapping determines the wired broadcast domain for client data. The proposed plan misses the two stated outcomes.

C:

The first step covers (1), but the second addresses prioritize latency-sensitive voice clients over bulk wireless traffic. Wireless QoS maps traffic classes to airtime/queuing behavior for supported workloads. It leaves outcome (2) unfulfilled.

D:

The second step covers (2), but the first addresses verify that a desktop interface belongs to the intended VLAN. The VLAN table lists local VLAN membership for access ports and available VLAN identifiers. It leaves outcome (1) unfulfilled.

Question 203

A change request at Eastbrook Labs in a ticket for a new campus wing requires the team to improve account defense against guessed short passwords. Which option directly addresses the stated need?

  1. Use exec-timeout on VTY lines
  2. Apply sufficiently long unique passphrases with account protection
  3. Deploy an approved remote-access VPN client and headend
  4. Inspect show access-lists counters on the device

Explanation

Correct Answer

B:

Length, uniqueness and rate controls resist common password guessing attacks. This is the control that implements the specified requirement.

Incorrect Answers

A:

An EXEC timeout closes inactive terminal sessions instead of leaving a management login open indefinitely. That is not sufficient here: Length, uniqueness and rate controls resist common password guessing attacks.

C:

Remote access VPNs establish an encrypted session for an individual endpoint. That is not sufficient here: Length, uniqueness and rate controls resist common password guessing attacks.

D:

IOS ACL match counters can show which permit or deny clauses see selected traffic. That is not sufficient here: Length, uniqueness and rate controls resist common password guessing attacks.

Question 204

An ordered IPv4 ACL has entry 10 denying source 192.0.2.5 and entry 20 permitting 10.20.0.0/16. No other permit exists. What happens to traffic from source 198.51.100.25?

  1. It is permitted because every ACL defaults to allow when no ACE matches.
  2. It is denied by the implicit deny at the end of the ACL.
  3. It is denied specifically by entry 10 matching 192.0.2.5.
  4. It is permitted by entry 20 because 10.20.0.0/16 includes the source address.

Explanation

Correct Answer

B:

The source matches neither the explicit deny nor permit, so it reaches the implicit deny-all behavior.

Incorrect Answers

A:

IOS ACLs do not have a final implicit allow; traffic with no matching permit is denied.

C:

That entry names a different exact source, so it does not match 198.51.100.25.

D:

198.51.100.25 is outside 10.20.0.0/16, so the permit does not match.

Question 205

During a review, the administrator for Lighthouse Medical is asked to configure an IPv6 default route over a known link-local next hop. Which approach satisfies the precise requirement?

  1. Compare OSPF path metrics for the eligible equal-distance protocol routes
  2. Configure passive-interface on the relevant OSPF interface
  3. Use ipv6 route ::/0 with outgoing interface and link-local next hop
  4. Configure the target prefix with the valid outgoing point-to-point interface

Explanation

Correct Answer

C:

The egress interface is required to disambiguate a link-local next-hop address. This is the control that implements the specified requirement.

Incorrect Answers

A:

Within one protocol and destination prefix the protocol metric selects preferred path cost. That is not sufficient here: The egress interface is required to disambiguate a link-local next-hop address.

B:

Passive interfaces suppress OSPF neighbor hello formation while eligible network prefixes remain advertised. That is not sufficient here: The egress interface is required to disambiguate a link-local next-hop address.

D:

On a point-to-point interface, the route can use the egress interface without Ethernet ARP for each host. That is not sufficient here: The egress interface is required to disambiguate a link-local next-hop address.

Question 206

An operations ticket for Stonebridge Learning has two requirements: (1) raise security of admin sign-in beyond only a password, and (2) authenticate a device without managing a shared human password. Which proposed plan satisfies both outcomes?

  1. First, enforce multifactor authentication where available; then use an approved certificate-based device identity.
  2. First, enable dynamic ARP inspection with valid bindings and trusted infrastructure links; then use exec-timeout on VTY lines.
  3. First, enforce multifactor authentication where available; then use an extended ACL permit tcp with the server destination and eq 443.
  4. First, apply unique credentials with a password manager and rotation policy; then use an approved certificate-based device identity.

Explanation

Correct Answer

A:

Both outcomes are covered: (1) Multiple independent factors reduce reliance on one compromised secret. (2) Certificates bind cryptographic credentials to a trusted issuing authority and verified identity. Neither action is a substitute for the other.

Incorrect Answers

B:

Neither step is the requested pair: Enable dynamic ARP inspection with valid bindings and trusted infrastructure links is for stop forged ARP replies claiming the default gateway IP on user access ports, and Use exec-timeout on VTY lines is for configure an idle timeout for remote administrative sessions. DAI validates ARP address mappings against bindings or approved ARP ACLs. The proposed plan misses the two stated outcomes.

C:

The first step covers (1), but the second addresses permit only TCP port 443 to an internal HTTPS server. An extended ACL can distinguish HTTPS TCP traffic from other server ports. It leaves outcome (2) unfulfilled.

D:

The second step covers (2), but the first addresses reduce password reuse across device administrators. Unique secrets prevent one compromise from automatically exposing all devices. It leaves outcome (1) unfulfilled.

Question 207

A change advisory for Copperline Studios has two requirements: (1) explain why consistent syslog timestamps require time synchronization, and (2) synchronize router time with a centralized authoritative NTP source. Which option meets both stated needs?

  1. First, enable SSH using a hostname/domain, local user or AAA and VTY SSH transport; then configure remote syslog logging host and appropriate transport settings.
  2. First, check whether mappings preserve one fixed global per local host or reuse ports; then configure ntp server pointing to the approved NTP server address.
  3. First, use NTP on network devices and log servers; then configure ntp server pointing to the approved NTP server address.
  4. First, use NTP on network devices and log servers; then set an appropriate DSCP marking at a trusted policy boundary.

Explanation

Correct Answer

C:

Both outcomes are covered: (1) A common time reference makes event correlation meaningful across independently clocked devices. (2) NTP clients exchange time with configured time sources and discipline local clocks. Neither action is a substitute for the other.

Incorrect Answers

A:

Neither step is the requested pair: 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, and Configure remote syslog logging host and appropriate transport settings is for send router logs to a centralized log server. SSH encrypts remote terminal sessions and requires suitable keys and login configuration. The proposed plan misses the two stated outcomes.

B:

The second step covers (2), but the first addresses distinguish one-to-one static NAT from many-to-one overload. Static mapping binds an address, while overload multiplexes sessions through port translation. It leaves outcome (1) unfulfilled.

D:

The first step covers (1), but the second addresses mark traffic for downstream QoS treatment without changing application payload. DSCP bits in the IP header signal intended per-hop forwarding treatment. It leaves outcome (2) unfulfilled.

Question 208

VLAN 72 clients broadcast DHCP Discover. The DHCP server is on a reachable remote subnet. An engineer placed `ip helper-address 192.0.2.196` on the server-facing SVI, while the client gateway is interface Vlan72. Which change fixes relay placement?

  1. Keep the helper only on the server-facing interface because the server receives the unicast.
  2. Configure `ip helper-address 192.0.2.196` under interface Vlan72, where the client broadcasts arrive.
  3. Add a static default route on each DHCP client instead of using relay.
  4. Configure the helper under a Layer 2 access switchport in VLAN 72.

Explanation

Correct Answer

B:

The relay receives client broadcasts on the client-side Layer 3 interface and forwards them to the configured server.

Incorrect Answers

A:

The server-facing SVI does not see the local client broadcasts that need relaying.

C:

Clients without leases cannot use that as a replacement for forwarding their DHCP broadcasts.

D:

The relay command belongs on an appropriate Layer 3 interface receiving the broadcasts.

Question 209

A change advisory for Riverside Data has two requirements: (1) explain what ESP protects in common IPsec tunnels, and (2) separate VPN encryption from peer authentication in an IPsec negotiation. Which option addresses both requirements?

  1. First, recognize IPsec ESP confidentiality and integrity protection; then match the PSK configured on the WLAN and clients.
  2. First, recognize IPsec ESP confidentiality and integrity protection; then configure appropriate peer identity authentication and negotiated cryptographic algorithms.
  3. First, use controlled site-to-site IPsec gateway tunnels; then configure appropriate peer identity authentication and negotiated cryptographic algorithms.
  4. First, enable dynamic ARP inspection with valid bindings and trusted infrastructure links; then apply the configured Layer 2 WPA2 settings to the WLAN profile.

Explanation

Correct Answer

B:

Both outcomes are covered: (1) ESP can encrypt payloads and provide authenticated integrity for protected packets. (2) A usable IPsec tunnel depends on peers authenticating and agreeing on protection parameters. Neither action is a substitute for the other.

Incorrect Answers

A:

The first step covers (1), but the second addresses troubleshoot client association failure when the WLC has an incorrect pre-shared key. WPA2-Personal handshake succeeds only when both sides derive the same key material. It leaves outcome (2) unfulfilled.

C:

The second step covers (2), but the first addresses choose a VPN topology for dozens of branches connecting two headquarters networks. Gateway-to-gateway VPNs connect entire protected subnets without requiring each host a remote-access client. It leaves outcome (1) unfulfilled.

D:

Neither step is the requested pair: Enable dynamic ARP inspection with valid bindings and trusted infrastructure links is for stop forged ARP replies claiming the default gateway IP on user access ports, and Apply the configured Layer 2 WPA2 settings to the WLAN profile is for associate a wireless SSID with its intended security policy in WLC. DAI validates ARP address mappings against bindings or approved ARP ACLs. The proposed plan misses the two stated outcomes.

Question 210

An operations ticket for Sable Ridge Manufacturing has two requirements: (1) secure browser-based device administration on a WLC, and (2) prevent a downstream switch from claiming the root role over an uplink. Which proposed plan satisfies both outcomes?

  1. First, use a supported autonomous AP mode or small-business AP; then enable Root Guard on the intended designated port.
  2. First, use HTTPS management instead of unencrypted HTTP; then enable Root Guard on the intended designated port.
  3. First, use HTTPS management instead of unencrypted HTTP; then configure VLAN SVIs with IP addresses and enable ip routing.
  4. First, create and enable the WLAN/SSID in the controller GUI; then enable a supported protected authentication and encryption policy on the WLAN.

Explanation

Correct Answer

B:

Both outcomes are covered: (1) HTTPS uses TLS to protect management web sessions in transit. (2) Root Guard holds the port in a root-inconsistent state if superior BPDUs arrive. Neither action is a substitute for the other.

Incorrect Answers

A:

The second step covers (2), but the first addresses deploy standalone wireless connectivity at a tiny site without a central WLC. An autonomous or locally managed AP does not depend on a separate enterprise WLC for all management. It leaves outcome (1) unfulfilled.

C:

The first step covers (1), but the second addresses route between VLAN 10 and VLAN 20 using a multilayer switch. Layer 3 forwarding across VLANs requires an active routed interface for each subnet. It leaves outcome (2) 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 Enable a supported protected authentication and encryption policy on the WLAN is for reject unsecured wireless client associations on a protected SSID. The WLAN profile binds an SSID to its wireless security and policy configuration. The proposed plan misses the two stated outcomes.
