Cisco 200-301 Practice Test 28

Question 270

A change request at Summit Research after a topology change requires the team to interpret the administrative distance and metric displayed in brackets. What response best fits this requirement?

  1. Use an IPv6 static /128 host route with a valid next hop
  2. Read the first bracketed value as administrative distance and the second as metric
  3. Use router ospf with network statements and wildcard masks for area 0
  4. Compare AD for identical prefixes before protocol-specific metrics

Explanation

Correct Answer

B:

IOS route display commonly uses [administrative distance/metric] following the route code. This is the control that implements the specified requirement.

Incorrect Answers

A:

A /128 prefix matches a single IPv6 unicast address. That is not sufficient here: IOS route display commonly uses [administrative distance/metric] following the route code.

C:

OSPF network statements select interfaces for the specified area using address and wildcard matching. That is not sufficient here: IOS route display commonly uses [administrative distance/metric] following the route code.

D:

OSPF and EIGRP metrics are not directly comparable scales across protocols. That is not sufficient here: IOS route display commonly uses [administrative distance/metric] following the route code.

Question 271

Two Cisco switch uplink ports both run `switchport mode dynamic auto`. Both interfaces are physically up, but `show interfaces switchport` reports operational access mode on each; VLANs 10 and 20 must cross between the switches. Which change directly addresses trunk negotiation?

  1. Add more VLANs to the access VLAN field on both ports without changing the mode.
  2. Change the spanning-tree root bridge, since dynamic-auto mode requires a nonroot switch.
  3. Configure an explicitly approved trunk mode on both uplink interfaces, align trunk VLAN settings, and verify that both sides operate as trunks.
  4. Leave both modes at dynamic auto and change the native VLAN to 20.

Explanation

Correct Answer

C:

Two dynamic-auto DTP endpoints do not initiate a trunk; each waits for an actively negotiating or statically trunking peer. Explicit trunk configuration removes that passive/passive condition.

Incorrect Answers

A:

An access interface cannot become an operational 802.1Q trunk just by assigning an additional VLAN number.

B:

DTP negotiation is independent of which switch is elected the STP root.

D:

Native VLAN selection does not make two passive DTP ports initiate trunk negotiation.

Question 272

A network upgrade at Lighthouse Medical has two requirements: (1) derive an IPv6 subnet prefix from a /48 allocation for a single LAN, and (2) test IPv6 reachability through a routed path. Select TWO actions that together satisfy both outcomes.

  1. Inspect MAC table relearning and dynamic aging
  2. Compare the available channel allocations in the regulatory domain
  3. Use channels 1, 6 and 11
  4. Allocate a unique /64 subnet within the /48 block
  5. Use an IPv6 ping to the remote unicast endpoint

Explanation

Correct Answers

D:

Correct for outcome (1): A /48 leaves 16 subnet ID bits for up to 65,536 conventional /64 networks. The other outcome needs its separate action.

E:

Correct for outcome (2): An IPv6 echo exchange validates reachability across the IPv6 forwarding path. It complements the first required control.

Incorrect Answers

A:

Not selected: Inspect MAC table relearning and dynamic aging is for resolve why a moved host is still associated with an old switch port. The switch relearns a source MAC when frames arrive on the new port and ages idle entries. This does not provide either of the two specified controls.

B:

Not selected: Compare the available channel allocations in the regulatory domain is for explain why 5-GHz Wi-Fi often supports more nonoverlapping channels than 2.4 GHz. The 5-GHz band typically offers more nonoverlapping usable channels, with DFS restrictions on some ranges. This is not one of the two required changes.

C:

Not selected: Use channels 1, 6 and 11 is for 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. This is outside the two requested outcomes.

Question 273

A branch design for North Quay Finance has two requirements: (1) avoid transmitting an administrator password in cleartext to a router CLI, and (2) form an LACP channel where one side is passive. Which option addresses both requirements?

  1. First, use a controller-based WLAN architecture; then set the opposite peer to LACP active.
  2. First, inspect show cdp neighbors detail on an enabled link; then use a supported autonomous AP mode or small-business AP.
  3. First, use SSH rather than Telnet; then set the opposite peer to LACP active.
  4. First, use SSH rather than Telnet; then configure matching channel-group IDs with mode active on the intended member ports.

Explanation

Correct Answer

C:

Both outcomes are covered: (1) SSH encrypts remote terminal data and authentication, whereas Telnet does not. (2) Passive/ passive cannot initiate an LACP exchange, while an active side can negotiate with passive. Neither action is a substitute for the other.

Incorrect Answers

A:

The second step covers (2), but the first addresses centrally manage radio settings of lightweight campus APs. Lightweight APs and a controller separate centralized policy/control from radio client access. It leaves outcome (1) unfulfilled.

B:

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 Use a supported autonomous AP mode or small-business AP is for deploy standalone wireless connectivity at a tiny site without a central WLC. CDP exchanges Cisco neighbor information at Layer 2, including platform and management identifiers. The proposed plan misses the two stated outcomes.

D:

The first step covers (1), but the second addresses bundle two compatible physical Ethernet switchports into one logical LACP link. LACP negotiates a logical port-channel while distributing eligible flows across member links. It leaves outcome (2) unfulfilled.

Question 274

An IPv6 router must reach the remote prefix 2001:db8:50::/64 through resolved global-unicast next hop 2001:db8:1::1. Which static route adds this destination without setting a default route?

  1. ipv6 route ::/0 2001:db8:1::1
  2. ip route 2001:db8:50::/64 2001:db8:1::1
  3. ipv6 route 2001:db8:1::/64 2001:db8:50::1
  4. ipv6 route 2001:db8:50::/64 2001:db8:1::1

Explanation

Correct Answer

D:

The IPv6 route syntax identifies the exact target /64 and reachable global-unicast next hop.

Incorrect Answers

A:

This creates a catch-all default for unrelated IPv6 destinations.

B:

The IPv4 ip route command does not configure an IPv6 static prefix.

C:

This reverses the intended destination and next hop and uses a host address with a different role.

Question 275

A branch design for Summit Research has two requirements: (1) route between VLAN 10 and VLAN 20 using a multilayer switch, and (2) route several VLANs using one router physical uplink. Select TWO actions that together satisfy both outcomes.

  1. Configure switchport mode access and switchport access vlan 20
  2. Configure the AP switchport for the intended management access VLAN
  3. Configure 802.1Q router subinterfaces with VLAN tags and gateway addresses
  4. Run show vlan brief on the access switch
  5. Configure VLAN SVIs with IP addresses and enable ip routing

Explanation

Correct Answers

C:

Correct for outcome (2): Router-on-a-stick separates VLAN traffic by subinterface over one physical trunk. It complements the first required control.

E:

Correct for outcome (1): Layer 3 forwarding across VLANs requires an active routed interface for each subnet. The other outcome needs its separate action.

Incorrect Answers

A:

Not selected: Configure switchport mode access and switchport access vlan 20 is for 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. This is outside the two requested outcomes.

B:

Not selected: Configure the AP switchport for the intended management access VLAN is for connect a lightweight AP expecting one untagged management VLAN on an access port. The AP needs a reachable management segment to discover and communicate with the controller. This is not one of the two required changes.

D:

Not selected: Run show vlan brief on the access switch is for verify that a desktop interface belongs to the intended VLAN. The VLAN table lists local VLAN membership for access ports and available VLAN identifiers. This does not provide either of the two specified controls.

Question 276

A network upgrade at Harborview Logistics has two requirements: (1) verify that a network automation run changed only intended fields, and (2) name the combination of underlay, overlay, and policy/control services. Which plan correctly handles both requirements?

  1. First, use before-and-after state validation with explicit invariants; then recognize the software-defined network fabric architecture.
  2. First, use before-and-after state validation with explicit invariants; then use HTTP PATCH on a supporting REST resource.
  3. First, use a southbound API or supported control protocol; then require validated evidence and human/network policy checks before execution.
  4. First, separate control-plane decisions from data-plane forwarding; then recognize the software-defined network fabric architecture.

Explanation

Correct Answer

A:

Both outcomes are covered: (1) Automated configuration still needs evidence that live devices match the authorized target. (2) A fabric integrates physical transport with virtual endpoints and centralized policy. Neither action is a substitute for the other.

Incorrect Answers

B:

The first step covers (1), but the second addresses modify selected configuration fields without replacing all others. PATCH applies a partial update to a resource under the API's defined semantics. It leaves outcome (2) unfulfilled.

C:

Neither step is the requested pair: Use a southbound API or supported control protocol is for deliver controller policy to routers and switches using device-facing interfaces, and Require validated evidence and human/network policy checks before execution is for avoid trusting an AI-recommended change without checking live configuration. Southbound interfaces connect the network controller to forwarding infrastructure. The proposed plan misses the two stated outcomes.

D:

The second step covers (2), but the first addresses differentiate route calculation from actual packet switching. The control plane computes state while the data plane forwards packets according to installed entries. It leaves outcome (1) unfulfilled.

Question 277

At Willowbrook Transit, an engineer must identify the transport three-way handshake behavior. Which action directly meets this requirement?

  1. Classify 192.168/16 as private IPv4 space
  2. Use a wireless LAN controller
  3. Recognize TCP SYN, SYN-ACK, ACK setup
  4. Use a cloud-hosted deployment with routed connectivity

Explanation

Correct Answer

C:

TCP establishes connection state and initial sequence numbers before data transfer. This is the control that implements the specified requirement.

Incorrect Answers

A:

192.168.0.0–192.168.255.255 is reserved for private addressing. That is not sufficient here: TCP establishes connection state and initial sequence numbers before data transfer.

B:

A WLC manages supported AP configuration and client WLAN policies centrally. That is not sufficient here: TCP establishes connection state and initial sequence numbers before data transfer.

D:

Cloud resources are operated on provider infrastructure rather than on premises. That is not sufficient here: TCP establishes connection state and initial sequence numbers before data transfer.

Question 278

At Cedarline Hotels, an engineer must notify monitoring of a significant device event without waiting for a poll. Which option best addresses this requirement?

  1. Configure NAT overload or PAT for the inside source
  2. Configure SNMP traps or informs to an authorized receiver
  3. Use show ip nat translations on the translating router
  4. Configure remote syslog logging host and appropriate transport settings

Explanation

Correct Answer

B:

SNMP notifications push device events to a management station. This is the control that implements the specified requirement.

Incorrect Answers

A:

PAT distinguishes simultaneous translations using TCP/UDP port identifiers as well as addresses. That is not sufficient here: SNMP notifications push device events to a management station.

C:

The NAT translation table lists original and translated addresses and ports for active entries. That is not sufficient here: SNMP notifications push device events to a management station.

D:

A syslog collector aggregates event messages across devices for correlation and retention. That is not sufficient here: SNMP notifications push device events to a management station.

Question 279

A Cisco show ip route output marks the installed IPv4 gateway-of-last-resort entry with the codes S*. What does this pair of symbols identify?

  1. A static route that is the current candidate default route.
  2. A subnet route learned through OSPF
  3. A directly connected interface address with /32 mask
  4. A route that must be administratively shutdown before forwarding

Explanation

Correct Answer

A:

S designates the route source as static, while the asterisk identifies a candidate default route. This label alone does not indicate an OSPF dynamic route.

Incorrect Answers

B:

Cisco marks OSPF learned routes with O, rather than S.

C:

Connected and local routes are shown with C and L, not the default-static S* combination.

D:

The asterisk does not indicate disabled state; it marks a candidate default.

Question 280

A change advisory for Greenfield Services has two requirements: (1) ensure a specific host denial is evaluated before a broad permit, and (2) troubleshoot client association failure when the WLC has an incorrect pre-shared key. Which plan correctly handles both requirements?

  1. First, place the deny ACE earlier in sequence order; then match the PSK configured on the WLAN and clients.
  2. First, apply sufficiently long unique passphrases with account protection; then match the PSK configured on the WLAN and clients.
  3. First, use a standard ACL deny for that source IP followed by required permits; then label the software weakness as a vulnerability and misuse as an exploit.
  4. First, place the deny ACE earlier in sequence order; then use authenticated local users or centralized AAA over SSH.

Explanation

Correct Answer

A:

Both outcomes are covered: (1) IOS ACL processing uses the first matching entry, so later entries are not checked after a match. (2) WPA2-Personal handshake succeeds only when both sides derive the same key material. Neither action is a substitute for the other.

Incorrect Answers

B:

The second step covers (2), but the first addresses improve account defense against guessed short passwords. Length, uniqueness and rate controls resist common password guessing attacks. It leaves outcome (1) unfulfilled.

C:

Neither step is the requested pair: Use a standard ACL deny for that source IP followed by required permits is for deny one known infected source IP regardless of destination using a simple filter, and Label the software weakness as a vulnerability and misuse as an exploit is for distinguish a software flaw from an attacker action exploiting it. Standard ACLs match IPv4 source addresses rather than destination ports. The proposed plan misses the two stated outcomes.

D:

The first step covers (1), but the second 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 (2) unfulfilled.
