Question 540

A network upgrade at Sable Ridge Manufacturing has two requirements: (1) publish a wireless network name for corporate users from a WLC, and (2) connect enterprise WLAN clients using a passphrase rather than per-user RADIUS credentials. Which plan correctly handles both requirements?

  1. First, create and enable the WLAN/SSID in the controller GUI; then configure a supported WPA2-Personal PSK WLAN.
  2. First, create and enable the WLAN/SSID in the controller GUI; then recognize the 802.1Q VLAN ID in tagged Ethernet frames.
  3. First, configure switchport mode access and switchport access vlan 20; then configure a supported WPA2-Personal PSK WLAN.
  4. First, treat CDP and LLDP neighbors as directly connected Layer 2 evidence; then use show interfaces trunk.

Explanation

Correct Answer

A:

Both outcomes are covered: (1) The WLAN profile binds an SSID to its wireless security and policy configuration. (2) WPA2-Personal authenticates users with the configured shared key, unlike enterprise 802.1X. Neither action is a substitute for the other.

Incorrect Answers

B:

The first step covers (1), but the second addresses distinguish tagged VLAN 30 traffic from untagged native VLAN traffic on an 802.1Q trunk. The VLAN identifier in the 802.1Q header preserves VLAN separation across shared trunks. It leaves outcome (2) unfulfilled.

C:

The second step covers (2), but the first addresses 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. It leaves outcome (1) unfulfilled.

D:

Neither step is the requested pair: Treat CDP and LLDP neighbors as directly connected Layer 2 evidence is for differentiate topology discovery from actual routing reachability, and Use show interfaces trunk is for confirm which VLANs are actively forwarded over a trunk. Discovery advertisements do not prove that an IP route exists or that remote hosts are reachable. The proposed plan misses the two stated outcomes.

Question 541

A company replaces a shared WLAN passphrase with individual employee credentials. The RADIUS server and user identities have been tested, but the WLC WLAN security page is still set to WPA2-Personal (PSK). Which change is necessary to enforce per-user authentication?

  1. Select the supported WPA2-Enterprise/802.1X security mode and bind the tested RADIUS/AAA profile to that WLAN.
  2. Keep WPA2-Personal and rotate the same PSK monthly.
  3. Turn off all WLAN encryption so the RADIUS server can see the user password.
  4. Map the WLAN to a different client VLAN but leave PSK security unchanged.

Explanation

Correct Answer

A:

Enterprise 802.1X delegates individual authentication to the AAA server; PSK authenticates possession of a shared key instead.

Incorrect Answers

B:

Periodic PSK rotation does not create per-user RADIUS authentication.

C:

Open association does not provide the required protected 802.1X session and exposes client traffic.

D:

VLAN mapping determines the wired segment, not whether WLAN clients authenticate individually.

Question 542

During a review, the administrator for Cedarline Hotels is asked to carry multiple tagged WLAN VLANs to a locally switching AP. Which approach satisfies the precise requirement?

  1. Run show vlan brief on the access switch
  2. Configure controller-supported link aggregation with the corresponding switch port-channel
  3. Use the approved 802.1Q trunk configuration when the AP model/mode requires it
  4. Align trunk or access settings and permitted VLANs across members

Explanation

Correct Answer

C:

Local-switching designs may place multiple client VLANs on the AP's wired uplink. This is the control that implements the specified requirement.

Incorrect Answers

A:

The VLAN table lists local VLAN membership for access ports and available VLAN identifiers. That is not sufficient here: Local-switching designs may place multiple client VLANs on the AP's wired uplink.

B:

A compatible aggregated uplink spreads supported traffic across multiple physical links. That is not sufficient here: Local-switching designs may place multiple client VLANs on the AP's wired uplink.

D:

Member interfaces require compatible Layer 2 parameters to join the same logical bundle. That is not sufficient here: Local-switching designs may place multiple client VLANs on the AP's wired uplink.

Question 543

Hillcrest Utilities needs to put an IPv6 /64 unicast prefix on a router interface. Which implementation directly addresses that objective without replacing it with a different network control?

  1. Forward only through the learned destination port unless it is the ingress port
  2. Use an appropriate PoE-capable switchport and compatible power budget
  3. Flood it through forwarding ports belonging to that broadcast domain
  4. Configure an IPv6 address and 64-bit prefix with IPv6 routing enabled where required

Explanation

Correct Answer

D:

IPv6 interface addressing includes a prefix length and router forwarding needs IPv6 routing capability. This is the control that implements the specified requirement.

Incorrect Answers

A:

Known unicast switching uses the CAM destination lookup to avoid unnecessary flooding. That is not sufficient here: IPv6 interface addressing includes a prefix length and router forwarding needs IPv6 routing capability.

B:

PoE delivers specified electrical power over Ethernet pairs while carrying network traffic. That is not sufficient here: IPv6 interface addressing includes a prefix length and router forwarding needs IPv6 routing capability.

C:

Layer 2 broadcast is delivered throughout the VLAN unless a boundary or feature blocks forwarding. That is not sufficient here: IPv6 interface addressing includes a prefix length and router forwarding needs IPv6 routing capability.

Question 544

A network engineer finds PortFast enabled on an Ethernet uplink connecting two active switches, with a redundant Layer 2 path elsewhere. Which change protects against temporary loops during convergence?

  1. Remove inappropriate PortFast from the interswitch uplink and allow normal STP convergence.
  2. Enable PortFast on all trunk interfaces to eliminate convergence time.
  3. Disable all BPDUs on the uplink while keeping the redundant link active.
  4. Lower the switch hostname lexically so it elects a safer root bridge.

Explanation

Correct Answer

A:

PortFast is designed for endpoint links, not switches that can introduce another Layer 2 path.

Incorrect Answers

B:

A trunk between switches can participate in an STP loop and should not indiscriminately skip the convergence process.

C:

Suppressing loop-control information can increase the chance of a switching loop.

D:

STP bridge election is based on priority and MAC identifiers, not hostname spelling.

Question 545

An operations ticket for Riverside Data has two requirements: (1) determine which network a configured IPv4 host belongs to, and (2) learn which switch port owns a newly seen source MAC. Select TWO actions that together satisfy both outcomes.

  1. Add or update the source MAC and VLAN entry on the receiving interface
  2. Recognize UDP's connectionless best-effort transport
  3. Apply the subnet mask bitwise to the host address
  4. Configure an IPv6 address and 64-bit prefix with IPv6 routing enabled where required
  5. Forward only through the learned destination port unless it is the ingress port

Explanation

Correct Answers

A:

Correct for outcome (2): A learning switch updates its CAM table from the incoming frame's source address. It complements the first required control.

C:

Correct for outcome (1): The IPv4 network address is the bitwise AND of the IP address and subnet mask. The other outcome needs its separate action.

Incorrect Answers

B:

Not selected: Recognize UDP's connectionless best-effort transport is for explain the absence of congestion and delivery guarantees in a datagram protocol. UDP sends datagrams without TCP-style acknowledgments, sequencing or congestion recovery. This is outside the two requested outcomes.

D:

Not selected: Configure an IPv6 address and 64-bit prefix with IPv6 routing enabled where required is for put an IPv6 /64 unicast prefix on a router interface. IPv6 interface addressing includes a prefix length and router forwarding needs IPv6 routing capability. This is not one of the two required changes.

E:

Not selected: Forward only through the learned destination port unless it is the ingress port is for deliver a frame with a known unicast destination in the same VLAN. Known unicast switching uses the CAM destination lookup to avoid unnecessary flooding. This does not provide either of the two specified controls.

Question 546

A branch design for Riverside Data has two requirements: (1) raise security of admin sign-in beyond only a password, and (2) configure an idle timeout for remote administrative sessions. Select TWO actions that together satisfy both outcomes.

  1. Enforce multifactor authentication where available
  2. Install vendor-approved security patches or mitigations
  3. Use a standard ACL deny for that source IP followed by required permits
  4. Use exec-timeout on VTY lines
  5. Use DHCP snooping on the client VLAN

Explanation

Correct Answers

A:

Correct for outcome (1): Multiple independent factors reduce reliance on one compromised secret. The other outcome needs its separate action.

D:

Correct for outcome (2): An EXEC timeout closes inactive terminal sessions instead of leaving a management login open indefinitely. It complements the first required control.

Incorrect Answers

B:

Not selected: Install vendor-approved security patches or mitigations is for limit risk from a publicly disclosed software CVE on network gear. Fixing or mitigating a known vulnerability reduces exploitability on exposed devices. This is not one of the two required changes.

C:

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 outside the two requested outcomes.

E:

Not selected: Use DHCP snooping on the client VLAN is for 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. This does not provide either of the two specified controls.

Question 547

Summit Research needs to prevent unauthorized visitors from entering a network equipment room. Which implementation directly addresses that objective without replacing it with a different network control?

  1. Use badge-controlled physical access with audited entry logs
  2. Configure switchport port-security maximum 2 on the access interface
  3. Deploy an approved remote-access VPN client and headend
  4. Add approved static ARP ACL validation entries or equivalent supported bindings

Explanation

Correct Answer

A:

Physical access controls reduce direct device tampering or console misuse. This is the control that implements the specified requirement.

Incorrect Answers

B:

Port security can cap how many source MAC addresses the port accepts. That is not sufficient here: Physical access controls reduce direct device tampering or console misuse.

C:

Remote access VPNs establish an encrypted session for an individual endpoint. That is not sufficient here: Physical access controls reduce direct device tampering or console misuse.

D:

DAI needs a trusted IP/MAC association for hosts without DHCP-snooping entries. That is not sufficient here: Physical access controls reduce direct device tampering or console misuse.

Question 548

An IPv6 router can reach neighbor FE80::2 on GigabitEthernet0/1. The engineer must add a route to remote prefix 2001:db8:44::/64 through that link-local next hop. Which IOS command clearly specifies the correct next-hop scope?

  1. ipv6 route 2001:db8:44::/64 FE80::2
  2. ip route 2001:db8:44::/64 GigabitEthernet0/1 FE80::2
  3. ipv6 route 2001:db8:44::/64 GigabitEthernet0/1 FE80::2
  4. ipv6 route ::/0 GigabitEthernet0/1 FE80::2

Explanation

Correct Answer

C:

A link-local IPv6 address is meaningful only on a particular interface. The route must identify GigabitEthernet0/1 so that FE80::2 is resolved on the intended link.

Incorrect Answers

A:

Omitting the interface fails to supply the required outgoing link scope for this Cisco IOS static-route form.

B:

The IPv4 ip route command cannot configure the specified IPv6 destination prefix.

D:

This installs a default IPv6 route for otherwise unmatched destinations, not the requested /64 route.

Question 549

An operations ticket for Meridian Insurance has two requirements: (1) provide wireless client association to a wired enterprise LAN, and (2) interconnect two Ethernet switch uplink ports with dedicated links. Which option addresses both requirements?

  1. First, deploy an access point connected to an appropriate switchport; then choose a /26 subnet with 62 usable addresses.
  2. First, deploy an access point connected to an appropriate switchport; then use point-to-point Ethernet interfaces with matching capabilities.
  3. First, run ip address show on Linux; then use a router with interfaces or subinterfaces in both routed networks.
  4. First, use fiber-optic cabling with suitable optics; then use point-to-point Ethernet interfaces with matching capabilities.

Explanation

Correct Answer

B:

Both outcomes are covered: (1) The AP bridges 802.11 client frames to the wired distribution system. (2) Each switched uplink can operate as a dedicated full-duplex link rather than a shared collision segment. Neither action is a substitute for the other.

Incorrect Answers

A:

The first step covers (1), but the second addresses size an IPv4 subnet for at least 50 ordinary host addresses. Six host bits yield 64 total addresses, generally 62 usable after network and broadcast. It leaves outcome (2) unfulfilled.

C:

Neither step is the requested pair: Run ip address show on Linux is for show the assigned IPv4 and IPv6 addresses on a Linux interface, and Use a router with interfaces or subinterfaces in both routed networks is for connect two IP subnets and forward packets between them. The ip command displays local interface addresses without assuming legacy ifconfig is installed. The proposed plan misses the two stated outcomes.

D:

The second step covers (2), but the first addresses select a medium immune to electromagnetic interference in an industrial plant. Optical signaling is not affected by electrical EMI in the way copper signaling can be. It leaves outcome (1) unfulfilled.

Question 550

Two OSPFv2 routers on shared Ethernet Gi0/3 use the same IPv4 subnet, area, and timers. R1 enables message-digest authentication but R2 is configured for no authentication. What is the targeted fix?

  1. Disable the IP address on R2 Gi0/3
  2. Change R2 hello timer to 100 seconds
  3. Enable DHCP snooping on an unrelated VLAN 150
  4. Configure compatible OSPF authentication mode and matching credentials on R2 Gi0/3

Explanation

Correct Answer

D:

Peers must agree on OSPFv2 authentication settings and valid credentials to accept Hellos.

Incorrect Answers

A:

This action does not correct the exact interface/OSPF mismatch shown in the scenario.

B:

That explanation does not distinguish this option. “Change R2 hello timer to 100 seconds” 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. “Enable DHCP snooping on an unrelated VLAN 150” is an alternative action, but it does not by itself establish the outcome required in this case.
