Cisco 200-301 Practice Test 58

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.

Question 571

A network upgrade at Stonebridge Learning has two requirements: (1) configure an idle timeout for remote administrative sessions, and (2) limit failed login brute-force attempts against a device. Which option meets both stated needs?

  1. First, use switchport port-security violation shutdown; then use controlled site-to-site IPsec gateway tunnels.
  2. First, use exec-timeout on VTY lines; then configure login block-for with appropriate attempts and time windows.
  3. First, use exec-timeout on VTY lines; then place the deny ACE earlier in sequence order.
  4. First, enable dynamic ARP inspection with valid bindings and trusted infrastructure links; then configure login block-for with appropriate attempts and time windows.

Explanation

Correct Answer

B:

Both outcomes are covered: (1) An EXEC timeout closes inactive terminal sessions instead of leaving a management login open indefinitely. (2) The IOS login block feature delays further attempts after repeated failed authentications. Neither action is a substitute for the other.

Incorrect Answers

A:

Neither step is the requested pair: Use switchport port-security violation shutdown is for disable a switchport after a port-security violation, and Use controlled site-to-site IPsec gateway tunnels is for choose a VPN topology for dozens of branches connecting two headquarters networks. The shutdown violation mode puts the protected interface into an error-disabled state on violation. The proposed plan misses the two stated outcomes.

C:

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.

D:

The second step covers (2), but the first addresses stop forged ARP replies claiming the default gateway IP on user access ports. DAI validates ARP address mappings against bindings or approved ARP ACLs. It leaves outcome (1) unfulfilled.

Question 572

A branch design for Stonebridge Learning has two requirements: (1) provision cloud or network infrastructure from a declarative plan, and (2) represent an absent optional API field's value. Which plan correctly handles both requirements?

  1. First, use a generative AI assistant with verified source context; then use HTTP POST according to the API contract.
  2. First, distinguish distributed device data planes from centralized management/control functions; then use JSON null rather than the string "null".
  3. First, use Terraform configuration and a reviewed plan/apply workflow; then recognize HTTP status 201 Created where the API follows that convention.
  4. First, use Terraform configuration and a reviewed plan/apply workflow; then use JSON null rather than the string "null".

Explanation

Correct Answer

D:

Both outcomes are covered: (1) Terraform models desired infrastructure resources and computes changes before applying them. (2) The null literal means no value, while the quoted text is a string. Neither action is a substitute for the other.

Incorrect Answers

A:

Neither step is the requested pair: Use a generative AI assistant with verified source context is for generate a human-readable incident summary from multiple device logs, and Use HTTP POST according to the API contract is for create a new resource through a REST API with a request body. Generative models produce natural-language explanations based on supplied events and evidence. The proposed plan misses the two stated outcomes.

B:

The second step covers (2), but the first addresses explain why controller failure does not necessarily stop all existing forwarding. Depending on architecture, devices can continue forwarding installed state when the controller is unreachable. It leaves outcome (1) unfulfilled.

C:

The first step covers (1), but the second addresses interpret a successful REST resource creation response. HTTP 201 indicates a resource was created, often with a Location header. It leaves outcome (2) unfulfilled.

Question 573

An acceptance check at Willowbrook Transit has two requirements: (1) prevent unauthorized visitors from entering a network equipment room, and (2) enforce documented security rules across an organization. Which option addresses both requirements?

  1. First, use wildcard 0.0.0.255 with base 10.3.8.0; then use WPA3-Personal with compatible clients.
  2. First, use badge-controlled physical access with audited entry logs; then publish clear policies and train staff on approved handling procedures.
  3. First, use badge-controlled physical access with audited entry logs; then use authenticated local users or centralized AAA over SSH.
  4. First, configure appropriate peer identity authentication and negotiated cryptographic algorithms; then publish clear policies and train staff on approved handling procedures.

Explanation

Correct Answer

B:

Both outcomes are covered: (1) Physical access controls reduce direct device tampering or console misuse. (2) Security programs combine policy, awareness and repeatable operational practice. Neither action is a substitute for the other.

Incorrect Answers

A:

Neither step is the requested pair: Use wildcard 0.0.0.255 with base 10.3.8.0 is for match any address in 10.3.8.0/24 using wildcard notation, and Use WPA3-Personal with compatible clients is for gain SAE-based password authentication on a modern wireless LAN. A wildcard bit set to one means ignore that address bit for ACL matching. The proposed plan misses the two stated outcomes.

C:

The first step covers (1), but the second addresses stop unprotected VTY authentication with a shared weak line password. Per-user authenticated access supports accountability and avoids weak shared credentials. It leaves outcome (2) unfulfilled.

D:

The second step covers (2), but the first addresses separate VPN encryption from peer authentication in an IPsec negotiation. A usable IPsec tunnel depends on peers authenticating and agreeing on protection parameters. It leaves outcome (1) unfulfilled.

Question 574

A change advisory for Hillcrest Utilities has two requirements: (1) deliver controller policy to routers and switches using device-facing interfaces, and (2) verify that a network automation run changed only intended fields. Which proposed plan satisfies both outcomes?

  1. First, use a generative AI assistant with verified source context; then use before-and-after state validation with explicit invariants.
  2. First, use a southbound API or supported control protocol; then use before-and-after state validation with explicit invariants.
  3. First, use a southbound API or supported control protocol; then recognize an object property written as a quoted key followed by a colon.
  4. First, keep the underlay network operational for packet transport; then use the underlay network.

Explanation

Correct Answer

B:

Both outcomes are covered: (1) Southbound interfaces connect the network controller to forwarding infrastructure. (2) Automated configuration still needs evidence that live devices match the authorized target. Neither action is a substitute for the other.

Incorrect Answers

A:

The second step covers (2), but the first addresses generate a human-readable incident summary from multiple device logs. Generative models produce natural-language explanations based on supplied events and evidence. It leaves outcome (1) unfulfilled.

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.

D:

Neither step is the requested pair: Keep the underlay network operational for packet transport is for avoid treating a software-defined controller as a replacement for physical forwarding links, and Use the underlay network is for identify the physical routed transport that carries tunneled traffic between fabric nodes. Controller-based policies still rely on forwarding infrastructure and physical connectivity. The proposed plan misses the two stated outcomes.

Question 575

Switches on one Rapid PVST+ VLAN instance advertise these bridge IDs: SW-1 (priority 20480, MAC 5fbfbdd5b56b); SW-2 (priority 16384, MAC 1cd270c347ac); SW-3 (priority 8192, MAC 38d5e50a413b); SW-4 (priority 28672, MAC 72106eaf7750). They are powered on with no previous root. Which switch is the elected root?

  1. SW-1 (priority 20480, MAC 5fbfbdd5b56b)
  2. SW-3 (priority 8192, MAC 38d5e50a413b)
  3. SW-2 (priority 16384, MAC 1cd270c347ac)
  4. SW-4 (priority 28672, MAC 72106eaf7750)

Explanation

Correct Answer

B:

The STP root is the switch with the numerically lowest bridge ID: priority is compared first, followed by MAC on ties. SW-3 has the lowest priority 8192.

Incorrect Answers

A:

Its advertised priority is greater than the winner 8192, and no tie breaker changes the result.

C:

That explanation does not distinguish this option. “SW-2 (priority 16384, MAC 1cd270c347ac)” 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. “SW-4 (priority 28672, MAC 72106eaf7750)” is an alternative action, but it does not by itself establish the outcome required in this case.

Question 576

A change advisory for Copperline Studios has two requirements: (1) identify an IPv6 link-local next hop, and (2) handle an unknown unicast destination received on one VLAN. Which plan correctly handles both requirements?

  1. First, recognize an FE80::/10 address with outgoing-interface context; then use scutil --dns on macOS.
  2. First, use fiber-optic cabling with suitable optics; then insert FFFE and invert the universal/local bit at the defined location.
  3. First, recognize an FE80::/10 address with outgoing-interface context; then flood to other forwarding ports in that VLAN.
  4. First, investigate collisions and faulty transmission or cabling; then flood to other forwarding ports in that VLAN.

Explanation

Correct Answer

C:

Both outcomes are covered: (1) A link-local IPv6 address is only meaningful on its link and may require an interface zone. (2) Unknown unicast flooding is confined to the VLAN because the switch lacks a destination entry. Neither action is a substitute for the other.

Incorrect Answers

A:

The first step covers (1), but the second addresses inspect DNS resolver settings on a macOS client. scutil --dns reports the active macOS DNS resolver configuration. It leaves outcome (2) unfulfilled.

B:

Neither step is the requested pair: Use fiber-optic cabling with suitable optics is for select a medium immune to electromagnetic interference in an industrial plant, and 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. Optical signaling is not affected by electrical EMI in the way copper signaling can be. The proposed plan misses the two stated outcomes.

D:

The second step covers (2), but the first addresses identify a surge of runts on a shared half-duplex Ethernet link. Frames shorter than the Ethernet minimum can arise from collision-related fragments or media defects. It leaves outcome (1) unfulfilled.

Question 577

An operations ticket for Orion Shipping has two requirements: (1) explain why a point-to-point OSPF link has no DR election, and (2) verify that OSPF neighbors reached the FULL state. Select TWO actions that together satisfy both outcomes.

  1. Use ipv6 route ::/0 with outgoing interface and link-local next hop
  2. Look for a route marked O in the IPv4 route table
  3. Recognize the S routing table code
  4. Recognize point-to-point OSPF network type
  5. Run show ip ospf neighbor and inspect state

Explanation

Correct Answers

D:

Correct for outcome (1): Point-to-point OSPF forms a direct adjacency without broadcast-media DR/BDR roles. The other outcome needs its separate action.

E:

Correct for outcome (2): The neighbor table shows adjacency state and neighbor identifiers on OSPF interfaces. It complements the first required control.

Incorrect Answers

A:

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 not one of the two required changes.

B:

Not selected: Look for a route marked O in the IPv4 route table is for recognize a route learned through single-area OSPF in the routing table. Cisco IOS uses an O routing protocol code for ordinary OSPF intra-area routes. This does not provide either of the two specified controls.

C:

Not selected: Recognize the S routing table code is for distinguish static route entries from learned routes. Cisco IOS marks configured static routes with S in show ip route. This is outside the two requested outcomes.

Question 578

A change advisory for Stonebridge Learning has two requirements: (1) identify the spanning-tree root switch from bridge IDs, and (2) deploy standalone wireless connectivity at a tiny site without a central WLC. Which proposed plan satisfies both outcomes?

  1. First, select the switch with the lowest priority plus MAC bridge identifier; then use a supported autonomous AP mode or small-business AP.
  2. First, create and enable the WLAN/SSID in the controller GUI; then consider FlexConnect operation on supported APs.
  3. First, use show etherchannel summary; then use a supported autonomous AP mode or small-business AP.
  4. First, select the switch with the lowest priority plus MAC bridge identifier; then configure 802.1Q router subinterfaces with VLAN tags and gateway addresses.

Explanation

Correct Answer

A:

Both outcomes are covered: (1) STP elects the lowest bridge ID as the root for a spanning-tree instance. (2) An autonomous or locally managed AP does not depend on a separate enterprise WLC for all management. Neither action is a substitute for the other.

Incorrect Answers

B:

Neither step is the requested pair: Create and enable the WLAN/SSID in the controller GUI is for publish a wireless network name for corporate users from a WLC, and Consider FlexConnect operation on supported APs is for support a remote site that cannot always reach the controller. The WLAN profile binds an SSID to its wireless security and policy configuration. The proposed plan misses the two stated outcomes.

C:

The second step covers (2), but the first addresses verify members and state of a Cisco EtherChannel. The summary displays the port-channel group, protocol and member flags. It leaves outcome (1) unfulfilled.

D:

The first step covers (1), but the second addresses route several VLANs using one router physical uplink. Router-on-a-stick separates VLAN traffic by subinterface over one physical trunk. It leaves outcome (2) unfulfilled.

Question 579

A branch design for Greenfield Services has two requirements: (1) centrally configure dozens of lightweight access points, and (2) recognize an RFC1918 address in 192.168.0.0/16. Select TWO actions that together satisfy both outcomes.

  1. Choose a /26 subnet with 62 usable addresses
  2. Classify 192.168/16 as private IPv4 space
  3. Use a wireless LAN controller
  4. Insert FFFE and invert the universal/local bit at the defined location
  5. Run ip address show on Linux

Explanation

Correct Answers

B:

Correct for outcome (2): 192.168.0.0–192.168.255.255 is reserved for private addressing. It complements the first required control.

C:

Correct for outcome (1): A WLC manages supported AP configuration and client WLAN policies centrally. The other outcome needs its separate action.

Incorrect Answers

A:

Not selected: Choose a /26 subnet with 62 usable addresses is for 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. This does not provide either of the two specified controls.

D:

Not selected: 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. Modified EUI-64 expands the 48-bit MAC and flips the U/L bit to form a 64-bit identifier. This is outside the two requested outcomes.

E:

Not selected: Run ip address show on Linux is for show the assigned IPv4 and IPv6 addresses on a Linux interface. The ip command displays local interface addresses without assuming legacy ifconfig is installed. This is not one of the two required changes.

Question 580

A branch design for Riverside Data has two requirements: (1) offer the default gateway to clients through an IOS DHCP pool, and (2) verify active bindings assigned by a Cisco IOS DHCP server. Select TWO actions that together satisfy both outcomes.

  1. Use show ip dhcp binding
  2. Configure ntp server pointing to the approved NTP server address
  3. Expect the client to send DHCPREQUEST and receive DHCPACK on success
  4. Recognize TFTP lacks encryption and authentication
  5. Set default-router to the correct local gateway in the DHCP network scope

Explanation

Correct Answers

A:

Correct for outcome (2): The binding table lists leased addresses and client identifiers for the IOS DHCP service. It complements the first required control.

E:

Correct for outcome (1): The DHCP router option tells clients which on-link next hop handles off-subnet destinations. The other outcome needs its separate action.

Incorrect Answers

B:

Not selected: Configure ntp server pointing to the approved NTP server address is for synchronize router time with a centralized authoritative NTP source. NTP clients exchange time with configured time sources and discipline local clocks. This is outside the two requested outcomes.

C:

Not selected: Expect the client to send DHCPREQUEST and receive DHCPACK on success is for interpret a client renewing an existing DHCP lease. A lease renewal requests continued use of the address from a DHCP server. This does not provide either of the two specified controls.

D:

Not selected: Recognize TFTP lacks encryption and authentication is for explain why ordinary TFTP should not traverse an untrusted network. TFTP's simplicity leaves transfers exposed without a separate secure transport boundary. This is not one of the two required changes.
