Cisco 200-301 Practice Test 61

Question 600

An acceptance check at Riverside Data has two requirements: (1) avoid trusting an AI-recommended change without checking live configuration, and (2) provide a service-facing way for an application to request network policy from a controller. Select TWO actions that together satisfy both outcomes.

  1. Use a controller to maintain centralized policy and abstract device configuration
  2. Use anomaly detection with representative training or baseline data
  3. Require validated evidence and human/network policy checks before execution
  4. Use HTTP PUT where the API defines replacement semantics
  5. Use a northbound API

Explanation

Correct Answers

C:

Correct for outcome (1): AI suggestions are fallible and should not bypass deterministic authorization or operational verification. The other outcome needs its separate action.

E:

Correct for outcome (2): Northbound APIs expose controller abstractions to higher-level orchestration or applications. It complements the first required control.

Incorrect Answers

A:

Not selected: Use a controller to maintain centralized policy and abstract device configuration is for contrast manually configured per-device control logic with controller-based management. Controller-managed networking can coordinate policy across devices instead of requiring each device configured separately. This is not one of the two required changes.

B:

Not selected: Use anomaly detection with representative training or baseline data is for detect anomalous device behavior from a baseline of normal traffic. Anomaly detection identifies departures from learned normal patterns for investigation. This does not provide either of the two specified controls.

D:

Not selected: Use HTTP PUT where the API defines replacement semantics is for replace an entire resource representation through a REST endpoint. PUT generally supplies a complete new representation of a target resource. This is outside the two requested outcomes.

Question 601

A branch design for Orion Shipping has two requirements: (1) reject unsecured wireless client associations on a protected SSID, and (2) reduce the chance of an unintended access switch becoming STP root. Which option addresses both requirements?

  1. First, configure spanning-tree portfast on a true endpoint-facing access port; then create and enable the WLAN/SSID in the controller GUI.
  2. First, enable a supported protected authentication and encryption policy on the WLAN; then set the intended distribution switch's STP priority lower than competing bridges.
  3. First, use show interfaces trunk; then set the intended distribution switch's STP priority lower than competing bridges.
  4. First, enable a supported protected authentication and encryption policy on the WLAN; then check AP management IP, DHCP, DNS/discovery and routing to the WLC.

Explanation

Correct Answer

B:

Both outcomes are covered: (1) A secure SSID must negotiate the configured credentials and cipher before passing client data. (2) STP root election prefers the lowest bridge ID, so priority controls root placement. Neither action is a substitute for the other.

Incorrect Answers

A:

Neither step is the requested pair: Configure spanning-tree portfast on a true endpoint-facing access port is for enable rapid host access without waiting for ordinary STP transitions, and Create and enable the WLAN/SSID in the controller GUI is for publish a wireless network name for corporate users from a WLC. PortFast brings an edge port to forwarding quickly; it is not safe for an unintended switch link. The proposed plan misses the two stated outcomes.

C:

The second step covers (2), but the first addresses confirm which VLANs are actively forwarded over a trunk. The command displays operational trunks, encapsulation/native VLAN and allowed/active VLANs. It leaves outcome (1) unfulfilled.

D:

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

Question 602

An 802.1Q capture on an operational trunk shows a frame carrying VLAN ID 210 in its tag. Both switches use native VLAN 99, with native tagging disabled. How should the receiver classify that frame?

  1. Classify every trunk frame into native VLAN 99 even when it has an 802.1Q VLAN ID.
  2. Discard the VLAN tag and place the frame on the access VLAN of the physical port.
  3. Interpret the VLAN ID as an IP subnet mask rather than an Ethernet VLAN identifier.
  4. Place the tagged frame in VLAN 210; the configured native VLAN applies to untagged ingress frames.

Explanation

Correct Answer

D:

A valid 802.1Q tag identifies the VLAN for that frame, independent of the separate untagged native VLAN setting.

Incorrect Answers

A:

Only untagged traffic uses the native VLAN classification in the described configuration.

B:

This is a trunk, not an access interface, and the explicit tag determines membership.

C:

The tag operates at Layer 2 and is not an IPv4 prefix or subnet mask.

Question 603

Four OSPF routers become eligible simultaneously on an Ethernet broadcast segment, with no existing DR/BDR: R1 (priority 9, router ID 10.255.0.36); R2 (priority 200, router ID 10.255.0.16); R3 (priority 0, router ID 10.255.0.55); R4 (priority 20, router ID 10.255.0.237). Which router is ineligible for either DR or BDR because its OSPF interface priority is zero?

  1. R4 (priority 20, router ID 10.255.0.237)
  2. R3 (priority 0, router ID 10.255.0.55)
  3. R2 (priority 200, router ID 10.255.0.16)
  4. R1 (priority 9, router ID 10.255.0.36)

Explanation

Correct Answer

B:

R3 has interface priority 0 and cannot become DR or BDR; positive-priority neighbors remain election candidates.

Incorrect Answers

A:

R4 has nonzero priority 20 and is therefore eligible to take part in the initial DR/BDR election. The question asks for the router excluded by priority zero.

C:

R2 has nonzero priority 200 and is therefore eligible to take part in the initial DR/BDR election. The question asks for the router excluded by priority zero.

D:

R1 has nonzero priority 9 and is therefore eligible to take part in the initial DR/BDR election. The question asks for the router excluded by priority zero.

Question 604

A campus engineer sees this Ethernet aggregation condition: show etherchannel summary displays Gi1/0/1(D) under an otherwise configured channel. Which statement or response is technically correct?

  1. Treat D as proof the remote interface is in LACP active mode
  2. Treat D as confirmation that route preference succeeded
  3. Treat D as a down member and examine physical link state before expecting it to bundle
  4. Treat D as a designated, forwarding LACP member

Explanation

Correct Answer

C:

The D flag signals a down physical interface; an inoperative link cannot serve as a forwarding member.

Incorrect Answers

A:

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

B:

That explanation does not distinguish this option. “Treat D as confirmation that route preference succeeded” 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. “Treat D as a designated, forwarding LACP member” is an alternative action, but it does not by itself establish the outcome required in this case.

Question 605

A router learns the same prefix over two OSPF paths, cost 35 and cost 15. The change requirement is to prefer the cost-35 link during normal OSPF operation without changing preference for other routing protocols. Which metric should be tuned?

  1. Adjust the appropriate OSPF interface costs so the desired link yields the lower total SPF path cost.
  2. Raise OSPF administrative distance globally above static route distance.
  3. Change the VLAN native setting on the desired OSPF interface.
  4. Add a DHCP reservation for the OSPF router ID.

Explanation

Correct Answer

A:

Within OSPF, SPF path cost determines preference between eligible OSPF paths to a prefix; administrative distance ranks routing sources.

Incorrect Answers

B:

That changes protocol-source selection, not the relative cost of two OSPF paths.

C:

802.1Q native VLAN changes do not directly set the OSPF SPF path metric.

D:

A DHCP reservation does not adjust the path cost computed by OSPF.

Question 606

A branch design for Granite Works has two requirements: (1) avoid storing new local user credentials as plain text, and (2) configure an idle timeout for remote administrative sessions. Which proposed plan satisfies both outcomes?

  1. First, create username entries with the secret option and appropriate privilege; then use exec-timeout on VTY lines.
  2. First, configure a local username, login local, and relevant console line settings; then use exec-timeout on VTY lines.
  3. First, create username entries with the secret option and appropriate privilege; then add an explicit permit for eligible remaining traffic.
  4. First, enable the WLAN in the WLC GUI and confirm its broadcast/visibility policy; then use authenticated local users or centralized AAA over SSH.

Explanation

Correct Answer

A:

Both outcomes are covered: (1) IOS username secret stores a protected password hash rather than literal cleartext configuration. (2) An EXEC timeout closes inactive terminal sessions instead of leaving a management login open indefinitely. Neither action is a substitute for the other.

Incorrect Answers

B:

The second step covers (2), but the first addresses require a local credential when accessing an IOS console. Line login local authenticates against the device's configured local user database. It leaves outcome (1) unfulfilled.

C:

The first step covers (1), but the second addresses allow the rest of an ACL's traffic after a specific deny. Without a final permit, the implicit deny blocks traffic not otherwise matched. It leaves outcome (2) unfulfilled.

D:

Neither step is the requested pair: Enable the WLAN in the WLC GUI and confirm its broadcast/visibility policy is for verify the corporate wireless network is enabled after creating a WLAN, and Use authenticated local users or centralized AAA over SSH is for stop unprotected VTY authentication with a shared weak line password. A configured but disabled WLAN does not accept client associations. The proposed plan misses the two stated outcomes.

Question 607

Baypoint Retail needs to determine which network a configured IPv4 host belongs to. Which implementation directly addresses that objective without replacing it with a different network control?

  1. Use a collapsed-core two-tier campus design
  2. Use show mac address-table to inspect learned entries
  3. Use a WAN transport design with appropriate edge routers
  4. Apply the subnet mask bitwise to the host address

Explanation

Correct Answer

D:

The IPv4 network address is the bitwise AND of the IP address and subnet mask. This is the control that implements the specified requirement.

Incorrect Answers

A:

The access layer connects endpoints while the collapsed core aggregates access and provides routing. That is not sufficient here: The IPv4 network address is the bitwise AND of the IP address and subnet mask.

B:

The MAC table lists forwarding entries indexed by destination MAC and VLAN. That is not sufficient here: The IPv4 network address is the bitwise AND of the IP address and subnet mask.

C:

WAN connectivity links geographically separated LAN sites via a provider or overlay. That is not sufficient here: The IPv4 network address is the bitwise AND of the IP address and subnet mask.

Question 608

An engineer reviews OSPF SPF selection and finds two available OSPF paths to the same prefix, with total costs 20 and 45. Both are valid and the route source is OSPF. Which path is preferred?

  1. The path with cost 45 because higher metrics mean greater trust
  2. Both paths necessarily share traffic equally even though their costs differ
  3. The lower-cost OSPF path of cost 20.
  4. The prefix is dropped because OSPF routes cannot have multiple possible paths

Explanation

Correct Answer

C:

OSPF computes a path cost metric; for otherwise comparable routes to the same prefix, lower cumulative cost is preferred during shortest-path selection.

Incorrect Answers

A:

OSPF cost represents distance/expense and lower is better for route selection.

B:

Equal-cost forwarding requires comparable equal metrics, which are absent here.

D:

OSPF can compare multiple candidates and select the lower-cost path.

Question 609

During a review, the administrator for Summit Research is asked to centrally manage radio settings of lightweight campus APs. Which approach satisfies the precise requirement?

  1. Enable a supported protected authentication and encryption policy on the WLAN
  2. Use a controller-based WLAN architecture
  3. Select the switch with the lowest priority plus MAC bridge identifier
  4. Use an appropriate TACACS+ AAA design

Explanation

Correct Answer

B:

Lightweight APs and a controller separate centralized policy/control from radio client access. This is the control that implements the specified requirement.

Incorrect Answers

A:

A secure SSID must negotiate the configured credentials and cipher before passing client data. That is not sufficient here: Lightweight APs and a controller separate centralized policy/control from radio client access.

C:

STP elects the lowest bridge ID as the root for a spanning-tree instance. That is not sufficient here: Lightweight APs and a controller separate centralized policy/control from radio client access.

D:

TACACS+ supports granular device administration authorization and accounting through AAA. That is not sufficient here: Lightweight APs and a controller separate centralized policy/control from radio client access.

Question 610

An operations ticket for Willowbrook Transit has two requirements: (1) manage a switch when its production network is unreachable, and (2) avoid a user access port automatically forming an unintended trunk. Which proposed plan satisfies both outcomes?

  1. First, use an appropriate TACACS+ AAA design; then explicitly set switchport mode access on the endpoint-facing port.
  2. First, set the opposite peer to LACP active; then enable Root Guard on the intended designated port.
  3. First, use a supported out-of-band console connection; then explicitly set switchport mode access on the endpoint-facing port.
  4. First, use a supported out-of-band console connection; then enable and inspect LLDP on the link.

Explanation

Correct Answer

C:

Both outcomes are covered: (1) A console provides local management access independent of in-band IP reachability. (2) Access mode prevents the interface from carrying multiple data VLANs as a negotiated trunk. Neither action is a substitute for the other.

Incorrect Answers

A:

The second step covers (2), but the first addresses centrally authenticate network device administrators and separately account for command authorization. TACACS+ supports granular device administration authorization and accounting through AAA. It leaves outcome (1) unfulfilled.

B:

Neither step is the requested pair: Set the opposite peer to LACP active is for form an LACP channel where one side is passive, and Enable Root Guard on the intended designated port is for prevent a downstream switch from claiming the root role over an uplink. Passive/ passive cannot initiate an LACP exchange, while an active side can negotiate with passive. The proposed plan misses the two stated outcomes.

D:

The first step covers (1), but the second addresses advertise basic device identity to a multivendor adjacent device. LLDP is a vendor-neutral Layer 2 discovery protocol that advertises neighbor identity and capabilities. It leaves outcome (2) unfulfilled.
