Cisco 200-301 Practice Test 62

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.

Question 611

An operations ticket for Summit Research has two requirements: (1) inspect DNS resolver settings on a macOS client, and (2) see IPv4 address, mask, gateway and DNS on Windows. Which option meets both stated needs?

  1. First, keep tenant interfaces and route entries in isolated VRFs; then deploy a SOHO integrated gateway.
  2. First, use scutil --dns on macOS; then investigate channel interference and signal-to-noise ratio.
  3. First, use show mac address-table to inspect learned entries; then run ipconfig /all on the Windows client.
  4. First, use scutil --dns on macOS; then run ipconfig /all on the Windows client.

Explanation

Correct Answer

D:

Both outcomes are covered: (1) scutil --dns reports the active macOS DNS resolver configuration. (2) Windows ipconfig /all displays detailed TCP/IP adapter configuration. Neither action is a substitute for the other.

Incorrect Answers

A:

Neither step is the requested pair: Keep tenant interfaces and route entries in isolated VRFs is for avoid importing a route automatically between customer tenant routing tables, and Deploy a SOHO integrated gateway is for serve a home office with one combined firewall, switch, and wireless radio. A route in one VRF is not automatically visible in another without an explicit leak or import. The proposed plan misses the two stated outcomes.

B:

The first step covers (1), but the second addresses explain why a strong received signal can still produce poor WLAN throughput. RF quality and contention affect effective throughput beyond signal strength alone. It leaves outcome (2) unfulfilled.

C:

The second step covers (2), but the first 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 (1) unfulfilled.

Question 612

A change advisory for Sable Ridge Manufacturing has two requirements: (1) identify whether a connected route exists for a locally configured interface subnet, and (2) recognize a route learned through single-area OSPF in the routing table. Which plan correctly handles both requirements?

  1. First, give the backup static route AD higher than OSPF's 110; then read the first bracketed value as administrative distance and the second as metric.
  2. First, look for a C route in show ip route; then look for a route marked O in the IPv4 route table.
  3. First, look for a C route in show ip route; then use ip route 10.40.8.0 255.255.254.0 with the valid next hop.
  4. First, distinguish connected C entries from O or S routes; then look for a route marked O in the IPv4 route table.

Explanation

Correct Answer

B:

Both outcomes are covered: (1) A connected route is installed for an operational interface's configured network prefix. (2) Cisco IOS uses an O routing protocol code for ordinary OSPF intra-area routes. Neither action is a substitute for the other.

Incorrect Answers

A:

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 Read the first bracketed value as administrative distance and the second as metric is for interpret the administrative distance and metric displayed in brackets. 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 install a network static route to 10.40.8.0/23. A /23 mask covers the two adjacent /24s 10.40.8.0 and 10.40.9.0. It leaves outcome (2) unfulfilled.

D:

The second step covers (2), but the first 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 (1) unfulfilled.

Question 613

During a review, the administrator for Eastbrook Labs is asked to provide an access switchport for a desktop in VLAN 20. Which approach satisfies the precise requirement?

  1. Use lightweight APs with a WLC and their control tunnels
  2. Configure controller-supported link aggregation with the corresponding switch port-channel
  3. Configure trunk and allowed VLANs on the port-channel interface
  4. Configure switchport mode access and switchport access vlan 20

Explanation

Correct Answer

D:

An access port sends and receives the configured user VLAN without a data VLAN tag to the ordinary endpoint. This is the control that implements the specified requirement.

Incorrect Answers

A:

The controller coordinates WLAN configuration and may centralize traffic depending on AP mode. That is not sufficient here: An access port sends and receives the configured user VLAN without a data VLAN tag to the ordinary endpoint.

B:

A compatible aggregated uplink spreads supported traffic across multiple physical links. That is not sufficient here: An access port sends and receives the configured user VLAN without a data VLAN tag to the ordinary endpoint.

C:

The logical port-channel is the switching interface whose member ports must have compatible settings. That is not sufficient here: An access port sends and receives the configured user VLAN without a data VLAN tag to the ordinary endpoint.

Question 614

A site advertises summary 10.72.0.0/16 upstream, but only a few more-specific 10.72.x.0/24 networks are currently routed internally. What additional static entry safely discards packets for unused addresses inside that aggregate?

  1. ip route 10.72.0.0 255.255.0.0 Null0
  2. ip route 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 Null0
  3. ip route 10.72.0.0 255.255.255.0 Null0
  4. ip route 10.72.0.0 255.255.0.0 192.0.2.1

Explanation

Correct Answer

A:

A covering route to Null0 drops traffic for unassigned parts of the aggregate while more-specific valid routes still win.

Incorrect Answers

B:

Discarding all destinations without another matching route is broader than the advertised 10.72.0.0/16 summary.

C:

This /24 covers only one small part of the /16; unused other /24s can still loop through the default.

D:

Forwarding the aggregate to an upstream gateway can loop otherwise unused summary destinations back toward the site.

Question 615

Oakbridge University needs to associate a wireless SSID with its intended security policy in WLC. Which implementation directly addresses that objective without replacing it with a different network control?

  1. Apply the configured Layer 2 WPA2 settings to the WLAN profile
  2. Label the software weakness as a vulnerability and misuse as an exploit
  3. Place the deny ACE earlier in sequence order
  4. Use authenticated local users or centralized AAA over SSH

Explanation

Correct Answer

A:

The WLAN's Layer 2 security profile controls acceptable association cipher and key methods. This is the control that implements the specified requirement.

Incorrect Answers

B:

A vulnerability is an exposure; an exploit is a technique that takes advantage of that exposure. That is not sufficient here: The WLAN's Layer 2 security profile controls acceptable association cipher and key methods.

C:

IOS ACL processing uses the first matching entry, so later entries are not checked after a match. That is not sufficient here: The WLAN's Layer 2 security profile controls acceptable association cipher and key methods.

D:

Per-user authenticated access supports accountability and avoids weak shared credentials. That is not sufficient here: The WLAN's Layer 2 security profile controls acceptable association cipher and key methods.

Question 616

At Lighthouse Medical, an engineer must configure an idle timeout for remote administrative sessions. Which action directly meets this requirement?

  1. Use exec-timeout on VTY lines
  2. Segment access and apply least-privilege traffic rules
  3. Apply sufficiently long unique passphrases with account protection
  4. Configure login block-for with appropriate attempts and time windows

Explanation

Correct Answer

A:

An EXEC timeout closes inactive terminal sessions instead of leaving a management login open indefinitely. This is the control that implements the specified requirement.

Incorrect Answers

B:

Segmentation limits lateral movement paths through network boundaries. That is not sufficient here: An EXEC timeout closes inactive terminal sessions instead of leaving a management login open indefinitely.

C:

Length, uniqueness and rate controls resist common password guessing attacks. That is not sufficient here: An EXEC timeout closes inactive terminal sessions instead of leaving a management login open indefinitely.

D:

The IOS login block feature delays further attempts after repeated failed authentications. That is not sufficient here: An EXEC timeout closes inactive terminal sessions instead of leaving a management login open indefinitely.

Question 617

A network upgrade at Pinecrest Schools has two requirements: (1) avoid losing traceability when automation changes routing policy, and (2) identify the physical routed transport that carries tunneled traffic between fabric nodes. Which option addresses both requirements?

  1. First, run terraform plan and review its proposed actions; then require validated evidence and human/network policy checks before execution.
  2. First, store automation definitions under version control with deployment records; then separate control-plane decisions from data-plane forwarding.
  3. First, store automation definitions under version control with deployment records; then use the underlay network.
  4. First, protect the Terraform state and its sensitive output values; then use the underlay network.

Explanation

Correct Answer

C:

Both outcomes are covered: (1) Versioned automation allows change review, reproducible rollout and rollback. (2) The underlay provides physical/routed reachability for encapsulated overlay transport. Neither action is a substitute for the other.

Incorrect Answers

A:

Neither step is the requested pair: Run terraform plan and review its proposed actions is for check what Terraform intends to change before deploying, and Require validated evidence and human/network policy checks before execution is for avoid trusting an AI-recommended change without checking live configuration. The plan reports resource changes without applying them to production. The proposed plan misses the two stated outcomes.

B:

The first step covers (1), but the second addresses differentiate route calculation from actual packet switching. The control plane computes state while the data plane forwards packets according to installed entries. It leaves outcome (2) unfulfilled.

D:

The second step covers (2), but the first addresses understand why a Terraform state file needs secure handling. State can contain infrastructure identifiers and sensitive attributes used to track managed resources. It leaves outcome (1) unfulfilled.

Question 618

During a review, the administrator for Hillcrest Utilities is asked to troubleshoot client association failure when the WLC has an incorrect pre-shared key. Which approach satisfies the precise requirement?

  1. Match the PSK configured on the WLAN and clients
  2. Use WPA2-Personal where the WLAN/client support it
  3. Deploy an approved remote-access VPN client and headend
  4. Mark only the legitimate server-facing or relay uplink as DHCP snooping trusted

Explanation

Correct Answer

A:

WPA2-Personal handshake succeeds only when both sides derive the same key material. This is the control that implements the specified requirement.

Incorrect Answers

B:

WPA2 uses robust AES-based link protection in common personal-mode deployments. That is not sufficient here: WPA2-Personal handshake succeeds only when both sides derive the same key material.

C:

Remote access VPNs establish an encrypted session for an individual endpoint. That is not sufficient here: WPA2-Personal handshake succeeds only when both sides derive the same key material.

D:

A trusted uplink assignment without global and VLAN DHCP snooping enablement does not itself block rogue server replies on user access ports. That is not sufficient here: WPA2-Personal handshake succeeds only when both sides derive the same key material.

Question 619

A Rapid PVST+ switch has an alternate port that normally receives upstream BPDUs. A unidirectional failure stops those BPDUs, risking the alternate port erroneously entering forwarding. Which guard feature addresses this particular loss-of-BPDU failure?

  1. Root guard, which always blocks when BPDUs disappear.
  2. Loop guard, which prevents a non-designated port from incorrectly forwarding after expected BPDUs disappear.
  3. BPDU guard, which automatically stops all BPDUs arriving on a protected interswitch alternate port.
  4. PortFast, which bypasses convergence on the redundant interswitch trunk to keep it always forwarding.

Explanation

Correct Answer

B:

Loop guard protects STP root or alternate ports that stop receiving BPDUs because of certain link problems. Root guard instead addresses superior BPDUs from an unexpected root.

Incorrect Answers

A:

Root guard reacts to superior BPDUs and protects designated ports against undesired root placement; it does not primarily detect silent BPDU loss.

C:

BPDU guard is commonly for edge/PortFast interfaces that should not receive switch BPDUs; it is not the loss-of-BPDU safeguard here.

D:

PortFast is inappropriate for an interswitch redundant path that must obey STP loop prevention.

Question 620

A change request at Baypoint Retail after a topology change requires the team to have several servers share one IPv6 service address delivered to the nearest instance. Which option directly addresses the stated need?

  1. Insert FFFE and invert the universal/local bit at the defined location
  2. Use IPv6 anycast with routing toward the common address
  3. Use compatible single-mode fiber transceivers and fiber
  4. Classify FC00::/7, commonly FD00::/8, as unique local

Explanation

Correct Answer

B:

Anycast uses one unicast-format address on multiple nodes and routing selects a reachable instance. This is the control that implements the specified requirement.

Incorrect Answers

A:

Modified EUI-64 expands the 48-bit MAC and flips the U/L bit to form a 64-bit identifier. That is not sufficient here: Anycast uses one unicast-format address on multiple nodes and routing selects a reachable instance.

C:

Single-mode fiber carries one principal propagation mode and supports long distances with appropriate optics. That is not sufficient here: Anycast uses one unicast-format address on multiple nodes and routing selects a reachable instance.

D:

ULA is designed for local-scope addressing and is not advertised on the public internet. That is not sufficient here: Anycast uses one unicast-format address on multiple nodes and routing selects a reachable instance.
