Cisco 200-301 Practice Test 3

Question 20

A branch design for Willowbrook Transit has two requirements: (1) discover a neighboring Cisco switch's device name and management address, and (2) advertise basic device identity to a multivendor adjacent device. Which plan correctly handles both requirements?

  1. First, inspect show cdp neighbors detail on an enabled link; then enable and inspect LLDP on the link.
  2. First, enable Root Guard on the intended designated port; then enable and inspect LLDP on the link.
  3. First, inspect show cdp neighbors detail on an enabled link; then configure trunk and allowed VLANs on the port-channel interface.
  4. First, configure controller-supported link aggregation with the corresponding switch port-channel; then consider FlexConnect operation on supported APs.

Explanation

Correct Answer

A:

Both outcomes are covered: (1) CDP exchanges Cisco neighbor information at Layer 2, including platform and management identifiers. (2) LLDP is a vendor-neutral Layer 2 discovery protocol that advertises neighbor identity and capabilities. Neither action is a substitute for the other.

Incorrect Answers

B:

The second step covers (2), but the first addresses prevent a downstream switch from claiming the root role over an uplink. Root Guard holds the port in a root-inconsistent state if superior BPDUs arrive. It leaves outcome (1) unfulfilled.

C:

The first step covers (1), but the second addresses keep an aggregated trunk's VLAN policy consistent. The logical port-channel is the switching interface whose member ports must have compatible settings. It leaves outcome (2) unfulfilled.

D:

Neither step is the requested pair: Configure controller-supported link aggregation with the corresponding switch port-channel is for aggregate WLC uplinks for bandwidth and resilience, and Consider FlexConnect operation on supported APs is for support a remote site that cannot always reach the controller. A compatible aggregated uplink spreads supported traffic across multiple physical links. The proposed plan misses the two stated outcomes.

Question 21

An acceptance check at Orion Shipping has two requirements: (1) limit an access switchport to two learned endpoint MAC addresses, and (2) block only inbound Telnet to a server without blocking SSH. Which option addresses both requirements?

  1. First, publish clear policies and train staff on approved handling procedures; then match the PSK configured on the WLAN and clients.
  2. First, account for the implicit deny at the end of the ACL; then deny TCP destination port 23 with the intended host match, and permit TCP 22 as required.
  3. First, configure switchport port-security maximum 2 on the access interface; then deny TCP destination port 23 with the intended host match, and permit TCP 22 as required.
  4. First, configure switchport port-security maximum 2 on the access interface; then configure appropriate peer identity authentication and negotiated cryptographic algorithms.

Explanation

Correct Answer

C:

Both outcomes are covered: (1) Port security can cap how many source MAC addresses the port accepts. (2) TCP port 23 identifies Telnet, while SSH normally uses TCP port 22. Neither action is a substitute for the other.

Incorrect Answers

A:

Neither step is the requested pair: Publish clear policies and train staff on approved handling procedures is for enforce documented security rules across an organization, and Match the PSK configured on the WLAN and clients is for troubleshoot client association failure when the WLC has an incorrect pre-shared key. Security programs combine policy, awareness and repeatable operational practice. The proposed plan misses the two stated outcomes.

B:

The second step covers (2), but the first addresses explain why packets not matching any explicit ACL permit are dropped. ACL processing ends with an implicit deny when no preceding ACE matches. It leaves outcome (1) unfulfilled.

D:

The first step covers (1), but the second addresses separate VPN encryption from peer authentication in an IPsec negotiation. A usable IPsec tunnel depends on peers authenticating and agreeing on protection parameters. It leaves outcome (2) unfulfilled.

Question 22

Switches on one Rapid PVST+ VLAN instance advertise these bridge IDs: SW-1 (priority 28672, MAC 4d24f2207abb); SW-2 (priority 32768, MAC 1c0a03ac890a); SW-3 (priority 16384, MAC 2e99f6a3f9c8); SW-4 (priority 12288, MAC 6ecbf60ea2f1). They are powered on with no previous root. Which switch is the elected root?

  1. SW-1 (priority 28672, MAC 4d24f2207abb)
  2. SW-3 (priority 16384, MAC 2e99f6a3f9c8)
  3. SW-2 (priority 32768, MAC 1c0a03ac890a)
  4. SW-4 (priority 12288, MAC 6ecbf60ea2f1)

Explanation

Correct Answer

D:

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

A:

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

B:

That explanation does not distinguish this option. “SW-3 (priority 16384, MAC 2e99f6a3f9c8)” 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. “SW-2 (priority 32768, MAC 1c0a03ac890a)” is an alternative action, but it does not by itself establish the outcome required in this case.

Question 23

A branch design for Cedarline Hotels has two requirements: (1) configure an IPv6 default route over a known link-local next hop, and (2) verify that OSPF neighbors reached the FULL state. Which option meets both stated needs?

  1. First, use an installed 0.0.0.0/0 default route; 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 run show ip ospf neighbor and inspect state.
  3. First, use ipv6 route ::/0 with outgoing interface and link-local next hop; then run show ip ospf neighbor and inspect state.
  4. First, use ipv6 route ::/0 with outgoing interface and link-local next hop; then compare AD for identical prefixes before protocol-specific metrics.

Explanation

Correct Answer

C:

Both outcomes are covered: (1) The egress interface is required to disambiguate a link-local next-hop address. (2) The neighbor table shows adjacency state and neighbor identifiers on OSPF interfaces. Neither action is a substitute for the other.

Incorrect Answers

A:

Neither step is the requested pair: Use an installed 0.0.0.0/0 default route is for route an unknown destination when no more-specific route is present, and Find the default 0.0.0.0/0 route and gateway of last resort is for identify the route of last resort in an IPv4 routing table. The default matches any IPv4 destination not better matched by another prefix. The proposed plan misses the two stated outcomes.

B:

The second step covers (2), but the first addresses explain why two OSPF routers remain stuck in EXSTART. OSPF database description negotiation can fail when peers disagree on MTU. It leaves outcome (1) unfulfilled.

D:

The first step covers (1), but the second addresses avoid comparing routing protocol metrics across unrelated protocols. OSPF and EIGRP metrics are not directly comparable scales across protocols. It leaves outcome (2) unfulfilled.

Question 24

A newly installed switch uplink Gi1/0/24 is in access mode, but must carry both employee VLAN 59 and voice VLAN 60 between switches. Which configuration addresses the two-VLAN need?

  1. Configure Gi1/0/24 as 802.1Q trunk and allow VLANs 59 and 60
  2. Allow only VLAN 60 on an otherwise functional trunk
  3. Configure Gi1/0/24 as access VLAN 59
  4. Set the native VLAN to 59 and drop VLAN 60

Explanation

Correct Answer

A:

An 802.1Q trunk carrying both allowed VLANs is required for multiple tagged VLANs on a single uplink.

Incorrect Answers

B:

Leaving out one required VLAN from the allowed list blocks its tagged traffic, so the proposed trunk cannot meet both requested client segments.

C:

An ordinary access port carries one untagged data VLAN, rather than providing tagged transport for the two independent VLANs required on an interswitch link.

D:

A native VLAN setting cannot replace allowing both VLANs on the trunk.

Question 25

An acceptance check at Meridian Insurance has two requirements: (1) record when an administrator logs in and what actions occurred, and (2) prefer centralized network access AAA over per-switch local users where supported. Which option addresses both requirements?

  1. First, use accounting in an AAA architecture; then use an approved RADIUS or TACACS+ server architecture.
  2. First, monitor traffic for reconnaissance patterns and apply edge controls; then place the deny ACE earlier in sequence order.
  3. First, use WPA3-Personal with compatible clients; then use an approved RADIUS or TACACS+ server architecture.
  4. First, use accounting in an AAA architecture; then use authenticated local users or centralized AAA over SSH.

Explanation

Correct Answer

A:

Both outcomes are covered: (1) Accounting generates activity records for later auditing and troubleshooting. (2) Central AAA provides shared identity policy and audit handling across multiple devices. Neither action is a substitute for the other.

Incorrect Answers

B:

Neither step is the requested pair: Monitor traffic for reconnaissance patterns and apply edge controls is for detect active port scanning that precedes unwanted access attempts, and Place the deny ACE earlier in sequence order is for ensure a specific host denial is evaluated before a broad permit. Scanning probes service exposure and can be an early indicator of attempted intrusion. The proposed plan misses the two stated outcomes.

C:

The second step covers (2), but the first addresses gain SAE-based password authentication on a modern wireless LAN. WPA3-Personal uses SAE for password-authenticated key establishment. It leaves outcome (1) unfulfilled.

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.

Question 26

During a review, the administrator for Lighthouse Medical is asked to configure a static host route to one IPv4 server at 198.51.100.77. Which approach satisfies the precise requirement?

  1. Use ip route 198.51.100.77 255.255.255.255 with a valid next hop
  2. Inspect show standby and active/standby states
  3. Use ipv6 route ::/0 with outgoing interface and link-local next hop
  4. Configure an FHRP such as HSRP or VRRP on the gateway VLAN

Explanation

Correct Answer

A:

A /32 host route matches exactly one IPv4 destination. This is the control that implements the specified requirement.

Incorrect Answers

B:

Cisco HSRP status identifies the virtual IP, role, priority, and participating peers. That is not sufficient here: A /32 host route matches exactly one IPv4 destination.

C:

The egress interface is required to disambiguate a link-local next-hop address. That is not sufficient here: A /32 host route matches exactly one IPv4 destination.

D:

Without a virtual gateway mechanism, loss of the configured single default gateway can strand clients. That is not sufficient here: A /32 host route matches exactly one IPv4 destination.

Question 27

During a review, the administrator for Cascade Health is asked to record when an administrator logs in and what actions occurred. Which approach satisfies the precise requirement?

  1. Use accounting in an AAA architecture
  2. Configure WPA2 PSK and a sufficiently strong passphrase in the WLC GUI
  3. Install vendor-approved security patches or mitigations
  4. Write an extended ACL permitting the host/source and destination subnet with appropriate transport

Explanation

Correct Answer

A:

Accounting generates activity records for later auditing and troubleshooting. This is the control that implements the specified requirement.

Incorrect Answers

B:

A WPA2 PSK WLAN authenticates clients through the configured shared secret. That is not sufficient here: Accounting generates activity records for later auditing and troubleshooting.

C:

Fixing or mitigating a known vulnerability reduces exploitability on exposed devices. That is not sufficient here: Accounting generates activity records for later auditing and troubleshooting.

D:

Extended ACLs can match both source and destination address criteria for selective traffic policy. That is not sufficient here: Accounting generates activity records for later auditing and troubleshooting.

Question 28

At Harborview Logistics, an engineer must recognize that SDN management is not literally a single router for every data packet. Which action directly meets this requirement?

  1. Keep traffic on programmed device forwarding paths
  2. Recognize the software-defined network fabric architecture
  3. Use controlled network automation with validated templates
  4. Use braces, brackets and string keys rather than XML tags

Explanation

Correct Answer

A:

A controller supplies decisions/policies; deployed devices usually perform packet forwarding. This is the control that implements the specified requirement.

Incorrect Answers

B:

A fabric integrates physical transport with virtual endpoints and centralized policy. That is not sufficient here: A controller supplies decisions/policies; deployed devices usually perform packet forwarding.

C:

Automation applies repeatable tested configuration rather than relying on individually typed changes. That is not sufficient here: A controller supplies decisions/policies; deployed devices usually perform packet forwarding.

D:

JSON objects and arrays have their own literal syntax distinct from XML markup. That is not sufficient here: A controller supplies decisions/policies; deployed devices usually perform packet forwarding.

Question 29

A branch design for Cedarline Hotels has two requirements: (1) distinguish a directed broadcast from an ordinary host IP, and (2) avoid assigning a gateway outside a host's IPv4 subnet. Which option addresses both requirements?

  1. First, identify the address with all host bits set to one; then use channels 1, 6 and 11.
  2. First, use scutil --dns on macOS; then validate gateway and host network portions under the configured mask.
  3. First, add or update the source MAC and VLAN entry on the receiving interface; then recognize an FE80::/10 address with outgoing-interface context.
  4. First, identify the address with all host bits set to one; then validate gateway and host network portions under the configured mask.

Explanation

Correct Answer

D:

Both outcomes are covered: (1) The all-ones host portion represents the subnet-directed broadcast in ordinary IPv4 subnets. (2) A directly reachable default gateway normally needs an on-link address in the host's subnet. Neither action is a substitute for the other.

Incorrect Answers

A:

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

B:

The second step covers (2), but the first addresses inspect DNS resolver settings on a macOS client. scutil --dns reports the active macOS DNS resolver configuration. It leaves outcome (1) unfulfilled.

C:

Neither step is the requested pair: Add or update the source MAC and VLAN entry on the receiving interface is for learn which switch port owns a newly seen source MAC, and Recognize an FE80::/10 address with outgoing-interface context is for identify an IPv6 link-local next hop. A learning switch updates its CAM table from the incoming frame's source address. The proposed plan misses the two stated outcomes.

Question 30

An acceptance check at Oakbridge University has two requirements: (1) avoid a user access port automatically forming an unintended trunk, and (2) distinguish tagged VLAN 30 traffic from untagged native VLAN traffic on an 802.1Q trunk. Select TWO actions that together satisfy both outcomes.

  1. Disable CDP on that specific interface
  2. Explicitly set switchport mode access on the endpoint-facing port
  3. Avoid BPDU filter on unmanaged switch-to-switch links
  4. Use show interfaces trunk
  5. Recognize the 802.1Q VLAN ID in tagged Ethernet frames

Explanation

Correct Answers

B:

Correct for outcome (1): Access mode prevents the interface from carrying multiple data VLANs as a negotiated trunk. The other outcome needs its separate action.

E:

Correct for outcome (2): The VLAN identifier in the 802.1Q header preserves VLAN separation across shared trunks. It complements the first required control.

Incorrect Answers

A:

Not selected: Disable CDP on that specific interface is for avoid exposing Cisco discovery information on an untrusted edge link. Interface-level no cdp enable stops Cisco discovery advertisements on the selected port. This does not provide either of the two specified controls.

C:

Not selected: Avoid BPDU filter on unmanaged switch-to-switch links is for explain why indiscriminate BPDU filtering risks a bridging loop. Suppressing BPDUs can hide redundant links from spanning-tree loop prevention. This is not one of the two required changes.

D:

Not selected: Use show interfaces trunk is for confirm which VLANs are actively forwarded over a trunk. The command displays operational trunks, encapsulation/native VLAN and allowed/active VLANs. This is outside the two requested outcomes.
