Cisco 200-301 Practice Test 53

Question 520

A network upgrade at Lighthouse Medical has two requirements: (1) centrally authenticate network device administrators and separately account for command authorization, and (2) provide centralized wireless client authentication using an industry-standard AAA protocol. Select TWO actions that together satisfy both outcomes.

  1. Create and enable the WLAN/SSID in the controller GUI
  2. Use RADIUS with an authorized WLAN authentication design
  3. Check AP management IP, DHCP, DNS/discovery and routing to the WLC
  4. Use HTTPS management instead of unencrypted HTTP
  5. Use an appropriate TACACS+ AAA design

Explanation

Correct Answers

B:

Correct for outcome (2): RADIUS commonly handles network-access authentication and accounting for 802.1X WLAN clients. It complements the first required control.

E:

Correct for outcome (1): TACACS+ supports granular device administration authorization and accounting through AAA. The other outcome needs its separate action.

Incorrect Answers

A:

Not selected: Create and enable the WLAN/SSID in the controller GUI is for publish a wireless network name for corporate users from a WLC. The WLAN profile binds an SSID to its wireless security and policy configuration. This is not one of the two required changes.

C:

Not selected: Check AP management IP, DHCP, DNS/discovery and routing to the WLC is for diagnose why a new AP cannot join its WLC despite an active Ethernet port. Layer 1 link up alone does not establish controller discovery and join reachability. This does not provide either of the two specified controls.

D:

Not selected: Use HTTPS management instead of unencrypted HTTP is for secure browser-based device administration on a WLC. HTTPS uses TLS to protect management web sessions in transit. This is outside the two requested outcomes.

Question 521

Sable Ridge Manufacturing needs to transfer a network image using authenticated file service credentials. Which implementation directly addresses that objective without replacing it with a different network control?

  1. Send syslog to an external authorized collector
  2. Configure ip address dhcp on the WAN interface
  3. Test SSH to the management IP and inspect VTY access restrictions
  4. Use an FTP server where that protocol is the specified management option

Explanation

Correct Answer

D:

FTP supports authenticated file transfers but ordinary FTP credentials and payloads are unencrypted. This is the control that implements the specified requirement.

Incorrect Answers

A:

Local device buffers can be lost on reboot, while a log server retains centralized history. That is not sufficient here: FTP supports authenticated file transfers but ordinary FTP credentials and payloads are unencrypted.

B:

A DHCP client interface requests leased IP parameters instead of using a fixed static address. That is not sufficient here: FTP supports authenticated file transfers but ordinary FTP credentials and payloads are unencrypted.

C:

Remote SSH requires reachable management IP, active SSH service and permitted VTY authentication. That is not sufficient here: FTP supports authenticated file transfers but ordinary FTP credentials and payloads are unencrypted.

Question 522

A branch design for Stonebridge Learning has two requirements: (1) identify the physical routed transport that carries tunneled traffic between fabric nodes, and (2) explain the logical segmentation created over a shared routed fabric. Which proposed plan satisfies both outcomes?

  1. First, separate property pairs with commas and quote property names; then protect the Terraform state and its sensitive output values.
  2. First, use JSON boolean true or false without quotation marks; then use an overlay network or virtual segmentation policy.
  3. First, use the underlay network; then use an overlay network or virtual segmentation policy.
  4. First, use the underlay network; then store automation definitions under version control with deployment records.

Explanation

Correct Answer

C:

Both outcomes are covered: (1) The underlay provides physical/routed reachability for encapsulated overlay transport. (2) An overlay encodes logical connectivity and isolation on top of the underlay. Neither action is a substitute for the other.

Incorrect Answers

A:

Neither step is the requested pair: Separate property pairs with commas and quote property names is for avoid a syntax error when a JSON object has several fields, and Protect the Terraform state and its sensitive output values is for understand why a Terraform state file needs secure handling. JSON object syntax requires comma-separated key/value pairs and double-quoted keys. The proposed plan misses the two stated outcomes.

B:

The second step covers (2), but the first addresses represent the true/false state of an API interface property. JSON has native boolean literals distinct from string values. It leaves outcome (1) unfulfilled.

D:

The first step covers (1), but the second addresses avoid losing traceability when automation changes routing policy. Versioned automation allows change review, reproducible rollout and rollback. It leaves outcome (2) unfulfilled.

Question 523

During a review, the administrator for Riverside Data is asked to reduce the chance of an unintended access switch becoming STP root. Which approach satisfies the precise requirement?

  1. Configure 802.1Q router subinterfaces with VLAN tags and gateway addresses
  2. Select the switch with the lowest priority plus MAC bridge identifier
  3. Configure controller-supported link aggregation with the corresponding switch port-channel
  4. Set the intended distribution switch's STP priority lower than competing bridges

Explanation

Correct Answer

D:

STP root election prefers the lowest bridge ID, so priority controls root placement. This is the control that implements the specified requirement.

Incorrect Answers

A:

Router-on-a-stick separates VLAN traffic by subinterface over one physical trunk. That is not sufficient here: STP root election prefers the lowest bridge ID, so priority controls root placement.

B:

STP elects the lowest bridge ID as the root for a spanning-tree instance. That is not sufficient here: STP root election prefers the lowest bridge ID, so priority controls root placement.

C:

A compatible aggregated uplink spreads supported traffic across multiple physical links. That is not sufficient here: STP root election prefers the lowest bridge ID, so priority controls root placement.

Question 524

A router receives a packet for destination 10.162.29.112. Its installed forwarding table contains 10.162.0.0/16 via 192.0.2.1; 10.162.29.0/24 via 192.0.2.2; 10.162.29.112/28 via 192.0.2.3; 10.162.29.112/30 via 192.0.2.4. Assume these routes are initially valid. The more-specific route(s) 10.162.29.112/30; 10.162.29.112/28 are then withdrawn without replacements. Which remaining route forwards this destination packet?

  1. 10.162.29.112/30 via 192.0.2.4
  2. 10.162.29.0/24 via 192.0.2.2
  3. 10.162.29.112/28 via 192.0.2.3
  4. 10.162.0.0/16 via 192.0.2.1

Explanation

Correct Answer

B:

After the listed routes are withdrawn, this remaining /24 prefix is the longest available match for 10.162.29.112. Longest-prefix matching is applied to the installed forwarding routes.

Incorrect Answers

A:

This /30 route is explicitly withdrawn from forwarding before the packet arrives, so it cannot be selected even though its prefix covered 10.162.29.112 originally.

C:

This /28 route is explicitly withdrawn from forwarding before the packet arrives, so it cannot be selected even though its prefix covered 10.162.29.112 originally.

D:

This /16 prefix still matches 10.162.29.112, but the eligible /24 prefix is more specific, so this route is not selected.

Question 525

R1 receives an IPv4 packet whose destination equals R1's own configured GigabitEthernet0/1 address, 192.0.2.1. Its routing table also includes a default route to an upstream device. What forwarding decision should R1 make for this packet?

  1. Deliver the packet to R1's local IP processing stack; it is addressed to the router itself.
  2. Forward the packet out the default route because all non-broadcast destinations require a next hop.
  3. Always forward the packet back out the incoming interface, regardless of its destination.
  4. Drop the packet solely because a router cannot receive IP traffic addressed to an interface.

Explanation

Correct Answer

A:

A router installs local host routes for its interface addresses. A packet addressed to 192.0.2.1 is locally terminated rather than forwarded through an unrelated default route.

Incorrect Answers

B:

A local-interface destination is for the router itself, and local delivery overrides default forwarding.

C:

Sending back out would be incorrect for traffic targeting the router's own IP address.

D:

Routers routinely receive and process packets addressed to their own interface IPs.

Question 526

An acceptance check at Pinecrest Schools has two requirements: (1) learn a device MAC dynamically and save it as a secure configuration entry, and (2) allow one IPv4 source host to reach a management subnet while denying others. Which proposed plan satisfies both outcomes?

  1. First, configure login block-for with appropriate attempts and time windows; then use an approved RADIUS or TACACS+ server architecture.
  2. First, enforce multifactor authentication where available; then write an extended ACL permitting the host/source and destination subnet with appropriate transport.
  3. First, enable port-security sticky MAC learning; then write an extended ACL permitting the host/source and destination subnet with appropriate transport.
  4. First, enable port-security sticky MAC learning; then configure WPA2 PSK and a sufficiently strong passphrase in the WLC GUI.

Explanation

Correct Answer

C:

Both outcomes are covered: (1) Sticky learning converts learned secure MACs into addresses retained in running configuration. (2) Extended ACLs can match both source and destination address criteria for selective traffic policy. Neither action is a substitute for the other.

Incorrect Answers

A:

Neither step is the requested pair: Configure login block-for with appropriate attempts and time windows is for limit failed login brute-force attempts against a device, and Use an approved RADIUS or TACACS+ server architecture is for prefer centralized network access AAA over per-switch local users where supported. The IOS login block feature delays further attempts after repeated failed authentications. The proposed plan misses the two stated outcomes.

B:

The second step covers (2), but the first addresses raise security of admin sign-in beyond only a password. Multiple independent factors reduce reliance on one compromised secret. It leaves outcome (1) unfulfilled.

D:

The first step covers (1), but the second addresses create a controller WLAN that uses WPA2-Personal for a lab SSID. A WPA2 PSK WLAN authenticates clients through the configured shared secret. It leaves outcome (2) unfulfilled.

Question 527

For the identical prefix 172.16.134.0/24, a router evaluates these route candidates: external BGP (AD 20, via 192.0.2.179); static (AD 1, via 192.0.2.237); connected (AD 0, directly attached interface); external BGP route was withdrawn. Ignore differences in metric across protocols. Which available source takes precedence in the routing table?

  1. connected (AD 0, directly attached interface)
  2. external BGP (AD 20, via 192.0.2.179)
  3. No eligible route remains for this prefix
  4. static (AD 1, via 192.0.2.237)

Explanation

Correct Answer

A:

connected (AD 0) is the eligible same-prefix candidate with the lowest administrative distance; it is preferred over static (AD 1). A directly connected prefix is attached to a local interface; it does not require a routed next-hop IP.

Incorrect Answers

B:

The external BGP route was explicitly withdrawn; its former AD 20 does not make it an eligible candidate for this decision.

C:

The connected (AD 0) candidate is still eligible for this exact prefix, so it is incorrect to say that no route remains.

D:

This static route has AD 1, higher than the eligible connected (AD 0); for the same prefix, Cisco chooses the lower administrative distance.

Question 528

A network upgrade at Riverside Data has two requirements: (1) reduce employee susceptibility to credential phishing, and (2) protect an individual remote employee connecting from public Wi-Fi. Select TWO actions that together satisfy both outcomes.

  1. Run periodic phishing-awareness training and simulated exercises
  2. Use a standard ACL deny for that source IP followed by required permits
  3. Configure a local username, login local, and relevant console line settings
  4. Deploy an approved remote-access VPN client and headend
  5. Configure login block-for with appropriate attempts and time windows

Explanation

Correct Answers

A:

Correct for outcome (1): User education helps people identify suspicious login requests and social-engineering cues. The other outcome needs its separate action.

D:

Correct for outcome (2): Remote access VPNs establish an encrypted session for an individual endpoint. It complements the first required control.

Incorrect Answers

B:

Not selected: 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. Standard ACLs match IPv4 source addresses rather than destination ports. This is not one of the two required changes.

C:

Not selected: Configure a local username, login local, and relevant console line settings is for require a local credential when accessing an IOS console. Line login local authenticates against the device's configured local user database. This is outside the two requested outcomes.

E:

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 does not provide either of the two specified controls.

Question 529

At Baypoint Retail, an engineer must prevent an unused VLAN from crossing a trunk link. Which action directly meets this requirement?

  1. Treat CDP and LLDP neighbors as directly connected Layer 2 evidence
  2. Map the WLAN to its intended client VLAN or policy profile
  3. Create and enable the WLAN/SSID in the controller GUI
  4. Remove it from the trunk allowed VLAN list

Explanation

Correct Answer

D:

The allowed list determines which tagged VLANs may traverse the trunk. This is the control that implements the specified requirement.

Incorrect Answers

A:

Discovery advertisements do not prove that an IP route exists or that remote hosts are reachable. That is not sufficient here: The allowed list determines which tagged VLANs may traverse the trunk.

B:

Controller WLAN-to-VLAN mapping determines the wired broadcast domain for client data. That is not sufficient here: The allowed list determines which tagged VLANs may traverse the trunk.

C:

The WLAN profile binds an SSID to its wireless security and policy configuration. That is not sufficient here: The allowed list determines which tagged VLANs may traverse the trunk.

Question 530

A change advisory for Baypoint Retail has two requirements: (1) deliver predictable east-west paths among multiple data-center racks, and (2) connect branch locations across a provider-operated geographic network. Which proposed plan satisfies both outcomes?

  1. First, use the appropriate FF00::/8 multicast destination; then recognize TCP SYN, SYN-ACK, ACK setup.
  2. First, use a spine-leaf topology with leaf-to-spine uplinks; then use a WAN transport design with appropriate edge routers.
  3. First, use a spine-leaf topology with leaf-to-spine uplinks; then enable a supported WPA2/WPA3 encrypted WLAN security policy.
  4. First, use a three-tier access/distribution/core architecture; then use a WAN transport design with appropriate edge routers.

Explanation

Correct Answer

B:

Both outcomes are covered: (1) Each leaf reaches other leaves through spine devices, reducing variable hop counts. (2) WAN connectivity links geographically separated LAN sites via a provider or overlay. Neither action is a substitute for the other.

Incorrect Answers

A:

Neither step is the requested pair: Use the appropriate FF00::/8 multicast destination is for send an IPv6 packet to every member of a multicast group, and Recognize TCP SYN, SYN-ACK, ACK setup is for identify the transport three-way handshake behavior. IPv6 multicast addresses identify groups, unlike a broadcast address. The proposed plan misses the two stated outcomes.

C:

The first step covers (1), but the second addresses protect wireless payloads from unauthenticated eavesdropping. A protected WLAN uses authenticated key establishment and link encryption, not only SSID hiding. It leaves outcome (2) unfulfilled.

D:

The second step covers (2), but the first addresses separate access, aggregation, and backbone roles in a large campus. Separate tiers scale policy aggregation and fast backbone transport independently. It leaves outcome (1) unfulfilled.
