Question 340

An operations ticket for Baypoint Retail has two requirements: (1) identify the transport three-way handshake behavior, and (2) explain the absence of congestion and delivery guarantees in a datagram protocol. Which plan correctly handles both requirements?

  1. First, recognize TCP SYN, SYN-ACK, ACK setup; then inspect physical cabling, transceivers, and interface counters.
  2. First, recognize TCP SYN, SYN-ACK, ACK setup; then recognize UDP's connectionless best-effort transport.
  3. First, deploy a SOHO integrated gateway; then recognize UDP's connectionless best-effort transport.
  4. First, use TCP with a connection-oriented transport session; then deploy an application server on a reachable network.

Explanation

Correct Answer

B:

Both outcomes are covered: (1) TCP establishes connection state and initial sequence numbers before data transfer. (2) UDP sends datagrams without TCP-style acknowledgments, sequencing or congestion recovery. Neither action is a substitute for the other.

Incorrect Answers

A:

The first step covers (1), but the second addresses diagnose rising CRC/FCS errors on one access port. Corrupt Ethernet frames commonly indicate physical media, cabling, or signaling faults. It leaves outcome (2) unfulfilled.

C:

The second step covers (2), but the first addresses serve a home office with one combined firewall, switch, and wireless radio. An all-in-one small-office appliance consolidates routing, NAT, Ethernet access and Wi-Fi. It leaves outcome (1) unfulfilled.

D:

Neither step is the requested pair: Use TCP with a connection-oriented transport session is for require guaranteed in-order delivery with acknowledgments for a file transfer, and Deploy an application server on a reachable network is for host a central application consumed by employee laptops. TCP provides sequencing, retransmission and flow control that UDP does not guarantee. The proposed plan misses the two stated outcomes.

Question 341

Four OSPF routers become eligible simultaneously on an Ethernet broadcast segment, with no existing DR/BDR: R1 (priority 4, router ID 10.255.0.155); R2 (priority 50, router ID 10.255.0.53); R3 (priority 6, router ID 10.255.0.107); R4 (priority 1, router ID 10.255.0.25). Which router becomes the backup designated router (BDR) after the initial DR/BDR election?

  1. R4 (priority 1, router ID 10.255.0.25)
  2. R2 (priority 50, router ID 10.255.0.53)
  3. R1 (priority 4, router ID 10.255.0.155)
  4. R3 (priority 6, router ID 10.255.0.107)

Explanation

Correct Answer

D:

R2 is DR with the highest eligible interface priority; R3 has the next-highest eligible priority and becomes BDR. Initial election is assumed to occur only once after neighbors are present, rather than inferring preemption from a late join.

Incorrect Answers

A:

R4 has eligible priority 1, but R3 ranks ahead after the DR is selected.

B:

R2 is the initial DR, not the BDR, because its priority is highest.

C:

R1 has eligible priority 4, but R3 ranks ahead after the DR is selected.

Question 342

A Cisco IOS switch reports a link-state change at severity 5, but its remote collector is configured to receive only severities 0 through 4. Which `logging trap` setting includes the notification while still excluding informational and debugging messages?

  1. logging trap errors (level 3)
  2. logging trap notifications (level 5)
  3. logging trap critical (level 2)
  4. logging trap debugging (level 7)

Explanation

Correct Answer

B:

Notifications includes messages at severities 0–5. It admits normal-but-significant interface changes at level 5 without forwarding informational level 6 or debugging level 7.

Incorrect Answers

A:

Errors includes levels 0–3 only. It excludes warnings at 4 and link-state notifications at 5, so the collector would still miss the event.

C:

Critical admits only levels 0–2 and therefore remains too restrictive for a severity-5 interface event.

D:

Debugging admits all severity levels 0–7, including the informational and debugging noise the requirement explicitly excludes.

Question 343

An operations ticket for Eastbrook Labs has two requirements: (1) pass JSON data to a REST API endpoint, and (2) limit the blast radius of a faulty automation deployment. Select TWO actions that together satisfy both outcomes.

  1. Roll out changes to a small validated device group before fleet-wide execution
  2. Recognize an object property written as a quoted key followed by a colon
  3. Send application/json with valid key-value object syntax
  4. Validate data quality, missing values and representative baselines
  5. Use Ansible playbooks and modules with device groups

Explanation

Correct Answers

A:

Correct for outcome (2): Staged automation reduces the number of devices affected by an unexpected template error. It complements the first required control.

C:

Correct for outcome (1): JSON encodes objects and arrays in a machine-readable representation accepted by many REST APIs. The other outcome needs its separate action.

Incorrect Answers

B:

Not selected: Recognize an object property written as a quoted key followed by a colon is for identify the mapping between a JSON key and its associated value. JSON objects store named properties with string keys and supported value types. This does not provide either of the two specified controls.

D:

Not selected: Validate data quality, missing values and representative baselines is for identify a risk from using poor-quality network telemetry to train AI. Incomplete or biased telemetry can produce misleading predictive network recommendations. This is outside the two requested outcomes.

E:

Not selected: Use Ansible playbooks and modules with device groups is for apply the same network configuration task across devices from an inventory file. Ansible inventories and playbooks run repeatable tasks across selected managed devices. This is not one of the two required changes.

Question 344

An acceptance check at Cedarline Hotels has two requirements: (1) protect Cisco privileged EXEC mode with a nonplaintext stored secret, and (2) authenticate a device without managing a shared human password. Which plan correctly handles both requirements?

  1. First, configure enable secret rather than a plain enable password; then use an approved certificate-based device identity.
  2. First, recognize WPA as older and prefer stronger supported alternatives; then enforce multifactor authentication where available.
  3. First, use wildcard 0.0.0.255 with base 10.3.8.0; then use an approved certificate-based device identity.
  4. First, configure enable secret rather than a plain enable password; then use DHCP snooping on the client VLAN.

Explanation

Correct Answer

A:

Both outcomes are covered: (1) enable secret uses one-way storage appropriate for privileged-mode access. (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: Recognize WPA as older and prefer stronger supported alternatives is for identify a wireless security mode using legacy TKIP and known weaknesses, and Enforce multifactor authentication where available is for raise security of admin sign-in beyond only a password. WPA introduced improvements over WEP but its TKIP design is weaker than modern WPA2/WPA3. The proposed plan misses the two stated outcomes.

C:

The second step covers (2), but the first addresses match any address in 10.3.8.0/24 using wildcard notation. A wildcard bit set to one means ignore that address bit for ACL matching. It leaves outcome (1) unfulfilled.

D:

The first step covers (1), but the second addresses build an authoritative IP-to-MAC-to-port binding table from legitimate DHCP leases. The snooping binding database records approved DHCP assignments for downstream validation. It leaves outcome (2) unfulfilled.

Question 345

A change request at Cedarline Hotels in a proposed design requires the team to differentiate route calculation from actual packet switching. What response best fits this requirement?

  1. Separate control-plane decisions from data-plane forwarding
  2. Use a JSON array enclosed in square brackets
  3. Use Ansible playbooks and modules with device groups
  4. Use HTTP PUT where the API defines replacement semantics

Explanation

Correct Answer

A:

The control plane computes state while the data plane forwards packets according to installed entries. This is the control that implements the specified requirement.

Incorrect Answers

B:

JSON arrays contain ordered elements which can be objects, scalars or other arrays. That is not sufficient here: The control plane computes state while the data plane forwards packets according to installed entries.

C:

Ansible inventories and playbooks run repeatable tasks across selected managed devices. That is not sufficient here: The control plane computes state while the data plane forwards packets according to installed entries.

D:

PUT generally supplies a complete new representation of a target resource. That is not sufficient here: The control plane computes state while the data plane forwards packets according to installed entries.

Question 346

Both sides of an operational 802.1Q trunk use native VLAN 90 and the platform’s native-VLAN tagging feature is disabled. How are ordinary frames in that native VLAN normally sent?

  1. Every native frame is always tagged with VLAN 90 under all configurations
  2. Untagged on the trunk, while non-native VLANs are typically carried with 802.1Q tags.
  3. The trunk discards all native VLAN frames by definition
  4. All VLAN traffic becomes untagged when a native VLAN is configured

Explanation

Correct Answer

B:

Under this defined native tagging mode, the selected VLAN is the untagged classification; the receiver associates the untagged traffic with its configured native VLAN.

Incorrect Answers

A:

The prompt explicitly disables native-VLAN tagging on the port.

C:

A correctly configured native VLAN can carry untagged traffic.

D:

Non-native VLANs on an 802.1Q trunk remain tagged as needed to distinguish their VLAN membership.

Question 347

Cascade Health needs to host a central application consumed by employee laptops. Which implementation directly addresses that objective without replacing it with a different network control?

  1. Use a hypervisor hosting separate virtual machines
  2. Deploy a SOHO integrated gateway
  3. Use fiber-optic cabling with suitable optics
  4. Deploy an application server on a reachable network

Explanation

Correct Answer

D:

A server offers shared application services while endpoint hosts initiate requests. This is the control that implements the specified requirement.

Incorrect Answers

A:

Server virtualization separates VM operating systems while sharing physical CPU and memory. That is not sufficient here: A server offers shared application services while endpoint hosts initiate requests.

B:

An all-in-one small-office appliance consolidates routing, NAT, Ethernet access and Wi-Fi. That is not sufficient here: A server offers shared application services while endpoint hosts initiate requests.

C:

Optical signaling is not affected by electrical EMI in the way copper signaling can be. That is not sufficient here: A server offers shared application services while endpoint hosts initiate requests.

Question 348

A change advisory for Summit Research has two requirements: (1) test IPv6 reachability through a routed path, and (2) protect wireless payloads from unauthenticated eavesdropping. Which plan correctly handles both requirements?

  1. First, use an IPv6 ping to the remote unicast endpoint; then enable a supported WPA2/WPA3 encrypted WLAN security policy.
  2. First, flood to other forwarding ports in that VLAN; then use UDP with an application-appropriate real-time protocol.
  3. First, use an IPv6 ping to the remote unicast endpoint; then issue no shutdown on the intended interface after checking change authority.
  4. First, run ip route get with the destination IP; then enable a supported WPA2/WPA3 encrypted WLAN security policy.

Explanation

Correct Answer

A:

Both outcomes are covered: (1) An IPv6 echo exchange validates reachability across the IPv6 forwarding path. (2) A protected WLAN uses authenticated key establishment and link encryption, not only SSID hiding. Neither action is a substitute for the other.

Incorrect Answers

B:

Neither step is the requested pair: Flood to other forwarding ports in that VLAN is for handle an unknown unicast destination received on one VLAN, and Use UDP with an application-appropriate real-time protocol is for send brief time-sensitive voice media without waiting for retransmissions. Unknown unicast flooding is confined to the VLAN because the switch lacks a destination entry. The proposed plan misses the two stated outcomes.

C:

The first step covers (1), but the second addresses interpret an interface that is administratively down. Administratively down indicates a configuration state rather than proof of failed physical media. It leaves outcome (2) unfulfilled.

D:

The second step covers (2), but the first addresses check the selected route to a destination on Linux. Linux route lookup reveals the chosen outgoing interface and gateway for that address. It leaves outcome (1) unfulfilled.

Question 349

An acceptance check at Hillcrest Utilities has two requirements: (1) prevent one router from becoming DR on a broadcast segment, and (2) route an unknown destination when no more-specific route is present. Select TWO actions that together satisfy both outcomes.

  1. Use an installed 0.0.0.0/0 default route
  2. Set its OSPF interface priority to 0
  3. Recognize point-to-point OSPF network type
  4. Compare AD for identical prefixes before protocol-specific metrics
  5. Use ipv6 route ::/0 with outgoing interface and link-local next hop

Explanation

Correct Answers

A:

Correct for outcome (2): The default matches any IPv4 destination not better matched by another prefix. It complements the first required control.

B:

Correct for outcome (1): An OSPF priority of zero makes the router ineligible for DR or BDR election. The other outcome needs its separate action.

Incorrect Answers

C:

Not selected: Recognize point-to-point OSPF network type is for explain why a point-to-point OSPF link has no DR election. Point-to-point OSPF forms a direct adjacency without broadcast-media DR/BDR roles. This is not one of the two required changes.

D:

Not selected: Compare AD for identical prefixes before protocol-specific metrics is for avoid comparing routing protocol metrics across unrelated protocols. OSPF and EIGRP metrics are not directly comparable scales across protocols. This does not provide either of the two specified controls.

E:

Not selected: Use ipv6 route ::/0 with outgoing interface and link-local next hop is for configure an IPv6 default route over a known link-local next hop. The egress interface is required to disambiguate a link-local next-hop address. This is outside the two requested outcomes.

Question 350

A change request at Harborview Logistics in a proposed design requires the team to place applications on remotely managed cloud compute instead of owned data-center hardware. Which option directly addresses the stated need?

  1. Use a cloud-hosted deployment with routed connectivity
  2. Recognize an FE80::/10 address with outgoing-interface context
  3. Use a router with interfaces or subinterfaces in both routed networks
  4. Use a suitable /30 traditional point-to-point subnet

Explanation

Correct Answer

A:

Cloud resources are operated on provider infrastructure rather than on premises. This is the control that implements the specified requirement.

Incorrect Answers

B:

A link-local IPv6 address is only meaningful on its link and may require an interface zone. That is not sufficient here: Cloud resources are operated on provider infrastructure rather than on premises.

C:

Routing selects a next hop from a destination IP prefix instead of forwarding solely by MAC address. That is not sufficient here: Cloud resources are operated on provider infrastructure rather than on premises.

D:

A /30 contains four total addresses and two ordinarily usable interface addresses. That is not sufficient here: Cloud resources are operated on provider infrastructure rather than on premises.
