Cisco 200-301 Practice Test 57

Question 560

An operations ticket for Baypoint Retail has two requirements: (1) make two routers with mismatched OSPF area IDs become neighbors, and (2) elect the designated router on a broadcast multiaccess segment. Which plan correctly handles both requirements?

  1. First, configure the matching OSPF area number on their shared link; then compare OSPF interface priority, then router ID among eligible candidates.
  2. First, recognize the S routing table code; then use router ospf with network statements and wildcard masks for area 0.
  3. First, configure the matching OSPF area number on their shared link; then distinguish connected C entries from O or S routes.
  4. First, use it as the host default gateway rather than an individual router interface IP; then compare OSPF interface priority, then router ID among eligible candidates.

Explanation

Correct Answer

A:

Both outcomes are covered: (1) OSPF neighbors must agree on the area for an eligible adjacency. (2) Broadcast OSPF uses a DR/BDR election based on configured priority and router-ID tie breaks. Neither action is a substitute for the other.

Incorrect Answers

B:

Neither step is the requested pair: Recognize the S routing table code is for distinguish static route entries from learned routes, and Use router ospf with network statements and wildcard masks for area 0 is for enable single-area OSPF on matching IPv4 interfaces. Cisco IOS marks configured static routes with S in show ip route. The proposed plan misses the two stated outcomes.

C:

The first step covers (1), but the second addresses interpret a directly connected interface network versus remote learned network. Directly connected prefixes have an attached interface, while remote routes require a next hop or recursion. It leaves outcome (2) unfulfilled.

D:

The second step covers (2), but the first addresses identify the purpose of an HSRP virtual IP on a user VLAN. The virtual address stays available across an active/standby gateway role change. It leaves outcome (1) unfulfilled.

Question 561

A change request at Summit Research after a topology change requires the team to synchronize router time with a centralized authoritative NTP source. What response best fits this requirement?

  1. Configure ip dhcp excluded-address for the reserved range
  2. Configure NAT overload or PAT for the inside source
  3. Set default-router to the correct local gateway in the DHCP network scope
  4. Configure ntp server pointing to the approved NTP server address

Explanation

Correct Answer

D:

NTP clients exchange time with configured time sources and discipline local clocks. This is the control that implements the specified requirement.

Incorrect Answers

A:

Exclusions prevent the IOS DHCP pool from leasing reserved router or server addresses. That is not sufficient here: NTP clients exchange time with configured time sources and discipline local clocks.

B:

PAT distinguishes simultaneous translations using TCP/UDP port identifiers as well as addresses. That is not sufficient here: NTP clients exchange time with configured time sources and discipline local clocks.

C:

The DHCP router option tells clients which on-link next hop handles off-subnet destinations. That is not sufficient here: NTP clients exchange time with configured time sources and discipline local clocks.

Question 562

The network 192.0.2.64/27 is reserved for an access segment. Which address is its last ordinary usable IPv4 host?

  1. 192.0.2.95
  2. 192.0.2.63
  3. 192.0.2.94
  4. 192.0.2.96

Explanation

Correct Answer

C:

A /27 has a 32-address span .64–.95. The broadcast is .95, so .94 is the highest ordinary usable host.

Incorrect Answers

A:

This is the subnet-directed broadcast.

B:

This lies in the previous /27 and is that preceding block’s broadcast.

D:

This is the network identifier of the next /27.

Question 563

For the identical prefix 172.25.101.0/24, a router evaluates these route candidates: internal EIGRP (AD 90, via 192.0.2.74); floating static (AD 200, via 192.0.2.128); connected (AD 0, directly attached interface). Ignore differences in metric across protocols. Which available source takes precedence in the routing table?

  1. connected (AD 0, directly attached interface)
  2. internal EIGRP (AD 90, via 192.0.2.74)
  3. No eligible route remains for this prefix
  4. floating static (AD 200, via 192.0.2.128)

Explanation

Correct Answer

A:

connected (AD 0) is the eligible same-prefix candidate with the lowest administrative distance; it is preferred over internal EIGRP (AD 90), floating static (AD 200). A directly connected prefix is attached to a local interface; it does not require a routed next-hop IP.

Incorrect Answers

B:

This internal EIGRP route has AD 90, higher than the eligible connected (AD 0); for the same prefix, Cisco chooses the lower administrative distance.

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 floating static route has AD 200, higher than the eligible connected (AD 0); for the same prefix, Cisco chooses the lower administrative distance.

Question 564

An acceptance check at Granite Works has two requirements: (1) remove a stale configured IPv4 static route without altering newer dynamic routes, and (2) make two routers with mismatched OSPF area IDs become neighbors. Which plan correctly handles both requirements?

  1. First, compare their configured router IDs; then configure the matching OSPF area number on their shared link.
  2. First, give the backup static route AD higher than OSPF's 110; then use an IPv6 static /128 host route with a valid next hop.
  3. First, negate the matching ip route statement with no ip route; then deploy a first-hop redundancy protocol with a virtual gateway address.
  4. First, negate the matching ip route statement with no ip route; then configure the matching OSPF area number on their shared link.

Explanation

Correct Answer

D:

Both outcomes are covered: (1) Removing the static configuration affects that route, not the unrelated dynamic routing protocol. (2) OSPF neighbors must agree on the area for an eligible adjacency. Neither action is a substitute for the other.

Incorrect Answers

A:

The second step covers (2), but the first addresses identify which router becomes the OSPF DR among two equal-priority routers. Higher router ID wins the DR election priority tie when both are otherwise eligible. It leaves outcome (1) unfulfilled.

B:

Neither step is the requested pair: Give the backup static route AD higher than OSPF's 110 is for provide a static backup only if an OSPF route to the same prefix disappears, and Use an IPv6 static /128 host route with a valid next hop is for route to one IPv6 host rather than its whole /64 subnet. A floating static route loses normally but is installed when the preferred OSPF route is withdrawn. The proposed plan misses the two stated outcomes.

C:

The first step covers (1), but the second addresses keep a shared default gateway available after one distribution switch fails. FHRPs let clients use one virtual default gateway while eligible routers coordinate active forwarding. It leaves outcome (2) unfulfilled.

Question 565

An operations ticket for Granite Works has two requirements: (1) find a host's VLAN and learned switchport from its MAC address, and (2) learn which switch port owns a newly seen source MAC. Select TWO actions that together satisfy both outcomes.

  1. Plan channel reuse and transmit power after an RF survey
  2. Use UDP with an application-appropriate real-time protocol
  3. Use show mac address-table to inspect learned entries
  4. Add or update the source MAC and VLAN entry on the receiving interface
  5. Use scutil --dns on macOS

Explanation

Correct Answers

C:

Correct for outcome (1): The MAC table lists forwarding entries indexed by destination MAC and VLAN. The other outcome needs its separate action.

D:

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

Incorrect Answers

A:

Not selected: Plan channel reuse and transmit power after an RF survey is for reduce co-channel contention among nearby access points. Adjacent APs on the same channel compete for airtime even when their signals do not overlap at layer 2. This is outside the two requested outcomes.

B:

Not selected: Use UDP with an application-appropriate real-time protocol is for send brief time-sensitive voice media without waiting for retransmissions. UDP avoids built-in retransmission delays and reliability is managed by the application. This is not one of the two required changes.

E:

Not selected: Use scutil --dns on macOS is for inspect DNS resolver settings on a macOS client. scutil --dns reports the active macOS DNS resolver configuration. This does not provide either of the two specified controls.

Question 566

An acceptance check at Riverside Data has two requirements: (1) run a long-distance optical link requiring low dispersion, and (2) connect short-distance rack equipment using optical transceivers. Which proposed plan satisfies both outcomes?

  1. First, use compatible single-mode fiber transceivers and fiber; then use compatible multimode fiber for the specified reach.
  2. First, use a wireless LAN controller; then use compatible multimode fiber for the specified reach.
  3. First, use compatible single-mode fiber transceivers and fiber; then use show mac address-table to inspect learned entries.
  4. First, make both link ends negotiate or explicitly agree on matching duplex; then split the /24 into eight blocks of 32 addresses.

Explanation

Correct Answer

A:

Both outcomes are covered: (1) Single-mode fiber carries one principal propagation mode and supports long distances with appropriate optics. (2) Multimode fiber and matching optics suit many short data-center or campus uplinks. Neither action is a substitute for the other.

Incorrect Answers

B:

The second step covers (2), but the first addresses centrally configure dozens of lightweight access points. A WLC manages supported AP configuration and client WLAN policies centrally. It leaves outcome (1) unfulfilled.

C:

The first step covers (1), but the second addresses find a host's VLAN and learned switchport from its MAC address. The MAC table lists forwarding entries indexed by destination MAC and VLAN. It leaves outcome (2) unfulfilled.

D:

Neither step is the requested pair: Make both link ends negotiate or explicitly agree on matching duplex is for resolve an Ethernet link showing late collisions and duplex inconsistency, and Split the /24 into eight blocks of 32 addresses is for create equal /27 subnets from a /24. A full/half duplex mismatch creates errors and poor performance even if the link stays up. The proposed plan misses the two stated outcomes.

Question 567

A campus engineer sees this Ethernet aggregation condition: Two LACP member ports have different trunk allowed VLAN lists. Which statement or response is technically correct?

  1. Leave different VLAN lists because LACP negotiates separate VLAN policies per member
  2. Align Layer 2 trunk VLAN and native VLAN parameters for member compatibility
  3. Change the bundle to two independent routed /32 host routes
  4. Enable PortFast on one member to bypass validation

Explanation

Correct Answer

B:

Layer 2 EtherChannel members must use compatible trunk configuration, otherwise aggregation may suspend inconsistent members.

Incorrect Answers

A:

This choice does not follow the observed LACP/port-channel state and would not correct the specified condition.

C:

That explanation does not distinguish this option. “Change the bundle to two independent routed /32 host routes” is an alternative action, but it does not by itself establish the outcome required in this case.

D:

That explanation does not distinguish this option. “Enable PortFast on one member to bypass validation” is an alternative action, but it does not by itself establish the outcome required in this case.

Question 568

An operations ticket for Copperline Studios has two requirements: (1) build an authoritative IP-to-MAC-to-port binding table from legitimate DHCP leases, and (2) stop forged ARP replies claiming the default gateway IP on user access ports. Select TWO actions that together satisfy both outcomes.

  1. Enable dynamic ARP inspection with valid bindings and trusted infrastructure links
  2. Deny TCP destination port 23 with the intended host match, and permit TCP 22 as required
  3. Configure a local username, login local, and relevant console line settings
  4. Use DHCP snooping on the client VLAN
  5. Require screen locking and restricted physical device access

Explanation

Correct Answers

A:

Correct for outcome (2): DAI validates ARP address mappings against bindings or approved ARP ACLs. It complements the first required control.

D:

Correct for outcome (1): The snooping binding database records approved DHCP assignments for downstream validation. The other outcome needs its separate action.

Incorrect Answers

B:

Not selected: Deny TCP destination port 23 with the intended host match, and permit TCP 22 as required is for block only inbound Telnet to a server without blocking SSH. TCP port 23 identifies Telnet, while SSH normally uses TCP port 22. This does not provide either of the two specified controls.

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: Require screen locking and restricted physical device access is for avoid unattended visitors modifying shared network workstations. Basic endpoint hygiene and physical controls help protect logged-in administrative sessions. This is not one of the two required changes.

Question 569

An engineer creates numbered IPv4 ACL 110 containing the intended deny and permit statements but sees no effect on packets entering GigabitEthernet0/0. What must be checked before changing the ACE logic?

  1. Whether the router hostname is an alphabetically earlier value
  2. Whether every line uses only the permit keyword and omits deny
  3. Whether all routed interfaces have been administratively shutdown
  4. Whether ACL 110 is actually applied with ip access-group 110 in on the correct inbound interface.

Explanation

Correct Answer

D:

Creating ACL entries in configuration does not filter traffic until an ACL is attached to the appropriate interface and direction; a correct detached ACL is inert.

Incorrect Answers

A:

Hostname order has no effect on applying a configured IP access list.

B:

An ACL can legitimately contain both permits and denies; the issue is missing interface attachment.

C:

Shutting down forwarding is not an appropriate fix for a missing intended ACL binding.

Question 570

An operations ticket for Meridian Insurance has two requirements: (1) generate a human-readable incident summary from multiple device logs, and (2) explain the logical segmentation created over a shared routed fabric. Which proposed plan satisfies both outcomes?

  1. First, use a northbound API; then use an overlay network or virtual segmentation policy.
  2. First, use the underlay network; then use logical overlay endpoint mappings on a reachable underlay.
  3. First, use a generative AI assistant with verified source context; then recognize an object property written as a quoted key followed by a colon.
  4. First, use a generative AI assistant with verified source context; then use an overlay network or virtual segmentation policy.

Explanation

Correct Answer

D:

Both outcomes are covered: (1) Generative models produce natural-language explanations based on supplied events and evidence. (2) An overlay encodes logical connectivity and isolation on top of the underlay. Neither action is a substitute for the other.

Incorrect Answers

A:

The second step covers (2), but the first addresses provide a service-facing way for an application to request network policy from a controller. Northbound APIs expose controller abstractions to higher-level orchestration or applications. It leaves outcome (1) unfulfilled.

B:

Neither step is the requested pair: Use the underlay network is for identify the physical routed transport that carries tunneled traffic between fabric nodes, and Use logical overlay endpoint mappings on a reachable underlay is for explain why fabric endpoint mobility can work without changing each physical trunk. The underlay provides physical/routed reachability for encapsulated overlay transport. The proposed plan misses the two stated outcomes.

C:

The first step covers (1), but the second addresses identify the mapping between a JSON key and its associated value. JSON objects store named properties with string keys and supported value types. It leaves outcome (2) unfulfilled.
