Cisco 200-301 Practice Test 43

Question 420

An operations ticket for Stonebridge Learning has two requirements: (1) deliver predictable east-west paths among multiple data-center racks, and (2) apply stateful application-aware inspection at the edge. Which plan correctly handles both requirements?

  1. First, insert FFFE and invert the universal/local bit at the defined location; then use the service set identifier or SSID.
  2. First, use show ipv6 route; then use a next-generation firewall with relevant application policies.
  3. First, use a spine-leaf topology with leaf-to-spine uplinks; then use a next-generation firewall with relevant application policies.
  4. First, use a spine-leaf topology with leaf-to-spine uplinks; then use separate virtual routing and forwarding instances.

Explanation

Correct Answer

C:

Both outcomes are covered: (1) Each leaf reaches other leaves through spine devices, reducing variable hop counts. (2) A next-generation firewall can classify application traffic and track sessions before permitting flows. Neither action is a substitute for the other.

Incorrect Answers

A:

Neither step is the requested pair: Insert FFFE and invert the universal/local bit at the defined location is for form a modified EUI-64 interface identifier from a 48-bit MAC, and Use the service set identifier or SSID is for identify the broadcast identifier clients select to join a WLAN. Modified EUI-64 expands the 48-bit MAC and flips the U/L bit to form a 64-bit identifier. The proposed plan misses the two stated outcomes.

B:

The second step covers (2), but the first addresses display the IPv6 forwarding table on a Cisco router. The IPv6 routing table exposes connected, static and learned IPv6 destinations. It leaves outcome (1) unfulfilled.

D:

The first step covers (1), but the second addresses hold independent overlapping IP route tables on one router. VRFs logically isolate routing tables even when interfaces share one physical platform. It leaves outcome (2) unfulfilled.

Question 421

An IOS router has a static route to 203.0.113.0/24 configured with only GigabitEthernet0/1 as the exit on a shared Ethernet LAN. Packet captures show ARP requests for individual remote destination addresses. Which explanation is most accurate?

  1. ARP requests prove the remote /24 is directly attached to the same VLAN and needs no routing.
  2. On a multiaccess Ethernet segment, an exit-interface-only static route can cause ARP resolution for destination hosts instead of one explicit gateway.
  3. The router automatically turns the static route into an OSPF route when it sees ARP replies.
  4. All static routes on Ethernet always require a separate route to every remote destination host.

Explanation

Correct Answer

B:

An Ethernet egress interface does not uniquely identify the next router. On a shared segment, defining a reachable next-hop IP or a fully specified static route avoids the problematic per-destination resolution behavior.

Incorrect Answers

A:

A static route naming an Ethernet interface does not establish that the remote prefix is physically on that VLAN.

C:

ARP resolves Layer 2 adjacency; it does not convert a configured static route into an OSPF-learned route.

D:

A properly resolved next-hop static route can cover an entire remote prefix with one forwarding adjacency.

Question 422

A network upgrade at Eastbrook Labs has two requirements: (1) stop unprotected VTY authentication with a shared weak line password, and (2) protect Cisco privileged EXEC mode with a nonplaintext stored secret. Which proposed plan satisfies both outcomes?

  1. First, use authenticated local users or centralized AAA over SSH; then configure enable secret rather than a plain enable password.
  2. First, use authenticated local users or centralized AAA over SSH; then place the deny ACE earlier in sequence order.
  3. First, use an extended ACL permit tcp with the server destination and eq 443; then configure enable secret rather than a plain enable password.
  4. First, match the PSK configured on the WLAN and clients; then use an approved certificate-based device identity.

Explanation

Correct Answer

A:

Both outcomes are covered: (1) Per-user authenticated access supports accountability and avoids weak shared credentials. (2) enable secret uses one-way storage appropriate for privileged-mode access. Neither action is a substitute for the other.

Incorrect Answers

B:

The first step covers (1), but the second addresses ensure a specific host denial is evaluated before a broad permit. IOS ACL processing uses the first matching entry, so later entries are not checked after a match. It leaves outcome (2) unfulfilled.

C:

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

D:

Neither step is the requested pair: Match the PSK configured on the WLAN and clients is for troubleshoot client association failure when the WLC has an incorrect pre-shared key, and Use an approved certificate-based device identity is for authenticate a device without managing a shared human password. WPA2-Personal handshake succeeds only when both sides derive the same key material. The proposed plan misses the two stated outcomes.

Question 423

During a review, the administrator for Pinecrest Schools is asked to protect Cisco privileged EXEC mode with a nonplaintext stored secret. Which approach satisfies the precise requirement?

  1. Configure enable secret rather than a plain enable password
  2. Run periodic phishing-awareness training and simulated exercises
  3. Add approved static ARP ACL validation entries or equivalent supported bindings
  4. Recognize IPsec ESP confidentiality and integrity protection

Explanation

Correct Answer

A:

enable secret uses one-way storage appropriate for privileged-mode access. This is the control that implements the specified requirement.

Incorrect Answers

B:

User education helps people identify suspicious login requests and social-engineering cues. That is not sufficient here: Enable secret uses one-way storage appropriate for privileged-mode access.

C:

DAI needs a trusted IP/MAC association for hosts without DHCP-snooping entries. That is not sufficient here: Enable secret uses one-way storage appropriate for privileged-mode access.

D:

ESP can encrypt payloads and provide authenticated integrity for protected packets. That is not sufficient here: Enable secret uses one-way storage appropriate for privileged-mode access.

Question 424

An acceptance check at Cascade Health has two requirements: (1) allow one IPv4 source host to reach a management subnet while denying others, and (2) permit only TCP port 443 to an internal HTTPS server. Which plan correctly handles both requirements?

  1. First, select an appropriate WPA2/WPA3 protected security mode; then apply sufficiently long unique passphrases with account protection.
  2. First, write an extended ACL permitting the host/source and destination subnet with appropriate transport; then use an extended ACL permit tcp with the server destination and eq 443.
  3. First, apply the configured Layer 2 WPA2 settings to the WLAN profile; then use an extended ACL permit tcp with the server destination and eq 443.
  4. First, write an extended ACL permitting the host/source and destination subnet with appropriate transport; then configure switchport port-security maximum 2 on the access interface.

Explanation

Correct Answer

B:

Both outcomes are covered: (1) Extended ACLs can match both source and destination address criteria for selective traffic policy. (2) An extended ACL can distinguish HTTPS TCP traffic from other server ports. Neither action is a substitute for the other.

Incorrect Answers

A:

Neither step is the requested pair: Select an appropriate WPA2/WPA3 protected security mode is for avoid deploying a weak open or legacy encrypted SSID for corporate users, and Apply sufficiently long unique passphrases with account protection is for improve account defense against guessed short passwords. Modern WLAN security limits passive interception and weak key recovery compared with WEP/open modes. The proposed plan misses the two stated outcomes.

C:

The second step covers (2), but the first addresses associate a wireless SSID with its intended security policy in WLC. The WLAN's Layer 2 security profile controls acceptable association cipher and key methods. It leaves outcome (1) unfulfilled.

D:

The first step covers (1), but the second addresses limit an access switchport to two learned endpoint MAC addresses. Port security can cap how many source MAC addresses the port accepts. It leaves outcome (2) unfulfilled.

Question 425

R1 and R2 exchange OSPF hellos on a routed Ethernet link and reach the EXSTART/EXCHANGE phase but never FULL. Their interface MTUs are 1500 and 9000 bytes, while area, authentication and timers match. What is the most direct repair?

  1. Raise one router's OSPF administrative distance to 255.
  2. Change both interface OSPF area IDs to different numbers for isolation.
  3. Rename the OSPF process on one router without inspecting the MTU.
  4. Configure a compatible MTU on the two OSPF-facing interfaces and verify database-descriptor exchange reaches FULL.

Explanation

Correct Answer

D:

OSPF database description packets carry interface MTU information. A mismatch can prevent database synchronization at EXSTART/EXCHANGE; aligning MTUs avoids bypassing a real data-plane constraint.

Incorrect Answers

A:

Administrative distance influences route preference and does not resolve MTU differences in neighbor database exchange.

B:

Area mismatch would prevent rather than restore normal adjacency.

C:

Locally significant OSPF process IDs need not match; changing them does not reconcile DBD packet MTU.

Question 426

An endpoint is configured as 10.25.11.94/23. Which network address identifies the subnet that includes it?

  1. 10.25.11.0/23
  2. 10.25.10.0/23
  3. 10.25.12.0/23
  4. 10.25.11.94/32

Explanation

Correct Answer

B:

A /23 covers two consecutive /24s with even third-octet starts. Third octet 11 belongs to the block starting at 10.

Incorrect Answers

A:

The third-octet boundary for /23 is even, so .11.0 is not its network start.

C:

This is the next /23 block, not the one containing .11.94.

D:

A /32 identifies a single host rather than its configured /23 network.

Question 427

At Summit Research, an engineer must identify the spanning-tree root switch from bridge IDs. Which action directly meets this requirement?

  1. Use SSH rather than Telnet
  2. Add routing through an SVI or router gateway
  3. Select the switch with the lowest priority plus MAC bridge identifier
  4. Enable and inspect LLDP on the link

Explanation

Correct Answer

C:

STP elects the lowest bridge ID as the root for a spanning-tree instance. This is the control that implements the specified requirement.

Incorrect Answers

A:

SSH encrypts remote terminal data and authentication, whereas Telnet does not. That is not sufficient here: STP elects the lowest bridge ID as the root for a spanning-tree instance.

B:

A Layer 2 VLAN boundary does not forward IPv4 packets between IP subnets by itself. That is not sufficient here: STP elects the lowest bridge ID as the root for a spanning-tree instance.

D:

LLDP is a vendor-neutral Layer 2 discovery protocol that advertises neighbor identity and capabilities. That is not sufficient here: STP elects the lowest bridge ID as the root for a spanning-tree instance.

Question 428

An operations ticket for Granite Works has two requirements: (1) avoid unattended visitors modifying shared network workstations, and (2) reduce employee susceptibility to credential phishing. Select TWO actions that together satisfy both outcomes.

  1. Add approved static ARP ACL validation entries or equivalent supported bindings
  2. Configure login block-for with appropriate attempts and time windows
  3. Require screen locking and restricted physical device access
  4. Run periodic phishing-awareness training and simulated exercises
  5. Use an approved RADIUS or TACACS+ server architecture

Explanation

Correct Answers

C:

Correct for outcome (1): Basic endpoint hygiene and physical controls help protect logged-in administrative sessions. The other outcome needs its separate action.

D:

Correct for outcome (2): User education helps people identify suspicious login requests and social-engineering cues. It complements the first required control.

Incorrect Answers

A:

Not selected: Add approved static ARP ACL validation entries or equivalent supported bindings is for troubleshoot DAI dropping valid static-IP devices that lack DHCP bindings. DAI needs a trusted IP/MAC association for hosts without DHCP-snooping entries. This does not provide either of the two specified controls.

B:

Not selected: Configure login block-for with appropriate attempts and time windows is for limit failed login brute-force attempts against a device. The IOS login block feature delays further attempts after repeated failed authentications. This is not one of the two required changes.

E:

Not selected: Use an approved RADIUS or TACACS+ server architecture is for prefer centralized network access AAA over per-switch local users where supported. Central AAA provides shared identity policy and audit handling across multiple devices. This is outside the two requested outcomes.

Question 429

A network upgrade at Meridian Insurance has two requirements: (1) derive an IPv6 subnet prefix from a /48 allocation for a single LAN, and (2) identify an IPv6 link-local next hop. Which option addresses both requirements?

  1. First, allocate a unique /64 subnet within the /48 block; then recognize an FE80::/10 address with outgoing-interface context.
  2. First, use a cloud-hosted deployment with routed connectivity; then enable a supported WPA2/WPA3 encrypted WLAN security policy.
  3. First, use show ipv6 route; then recognize an FE80::/10 address with outgoing-interface context.
  4. First, allocate a unique /64 subnet within the /48 block; then classify 192.168/16 as private IPv4 space.

Explanation

Correct Answer

A:

Both outcomes are covered: (1) A /48 leaves 16 subnet ID bits for up to 65,536 conventional /64 networks. (2) A link-local IPv6 address is only meaningful on its link and may require an interface zone. Neither action is a substitute for the other.

Incorrect Answers

B:

Neither step is the requested pair: Use a cloud-hosted deployment with routed connectivity is for place applications on remotely managed cloud compute instead of owned data-center hardware, and Enable a supported WPA2/WPA3 encrypted WLAN security policy is for protect wireless payloads from unauthenticated eavesdropping. Cloud resources are operated on provider infrastructure rather than on premises. The proposed plan misses the two stated outcomes.

C:

The second step covers (2), but the first addresses display the IPv6 forwarding table on a Cisco router. The IPv6 routing table exposes connected, static and learned IPv6 destinations. It leaves outcome (1) unfulfilled.

D:

The first step covers (1), but the second addresses recognize an RFC1918 address in 192.168.0.0/16. 192.168.0.0–192.168.255.255 is reserved for private addressing. It leaves outcome (2) unfulfilled.

Question 430

An acceptance check at Sable Ridge Manufacturing has two requirements: (1) recognize an IPv6 unique-local address, and (2) identify an IPv6 link-local next hop. Select TWO actions that together satisfy both outcomes.

  1. Review the negotiated speed and the cable/PHY capabilities on both ends
  2. Recognize an FE80::/10 address with outgoing-interface context
  3. Classify FC00::/7, commonly FD00::/8, as unique local
  4. Apply the subnet mask bitwise to the host address
  5. Use a next-generation firewall with relevant application policies

Explanation

Correct Answers

B:

Correct for outcome (2): A link-local IPv6 address is only meaningful on its link and may require an interface zone. It complements the first required control.

C:

Correct for outcome (1): ULA is designed for local-scope addressing and is not advertised on the public internet. The other outcome needs its separate action.

Incorrect Answers

A:

Not selected: Review the negotiated speed and the cable/PHY capabilities on both ends is for check why two 1-Gbps endpoints link at only 100 Mbps. Autonegotiation and cabling quality can constrain the actual operating link speed. This does not provide either of the two specified controls.

D:

Not selected: Apply the subnet mask bitwise to the host address is for determine which network a configured IPv4 host belongs to. The IPv4 network address is the bitwise AND of the IP address and subnet mask. This is not one of the two required changes.

E:

Not selected: Use a next-generation firewall with relevant application policies is for apply stateful application-aware inspection at the edge. A next-generation firewall can classify application traffic and track sessions before permitting flows. This is outside the two requested outcomes.
