Cisco 200-301 Practice Test 8

Question 70

A network upgrade at Pinecrest Schools has two requirements: (1) limit the blast radius of a faulty automation deployment, and (2) verify that a network automation run changed only intended fields. Which proposed plan satisfies both outcomes?

  1. First, roll out changes to a small validated device group before fleet-wide execution; then separate property pairs with commas and quote property names.
  2. First, roll out changes to a small validated device group before fleet-wide execution; then use before-and-after state validation with explicit invariants.
  3. First, send an authenticated HTTP GET to the resource URI; then require validated evidence and human/network policy checks before execution.
  4. First, protect the Terraform state and its sensitive output values; then use before-and-after state validation with explicit invariants.

Explanation

Correct Answer

B:

Both outcomes are covered: (1) Staged automation reduces the number of devices affected by an unexpected template error. (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 first step covers (1), but the second addresses avoid a syntax error when a JSON object has several fields. JSON object syntax requires comma-separated key/value pairs and double-quoted keys. It leaves outcome (2) unfulfilled.

C:

Neither step is the requested pair: Send an authenticated HTTP GET to the resource URI is for retrieve a network device's configuration using a REST endpoint, and Require validated evidence and human/network policy checks before execution is for avoid trusting an AI-recommended change without checking live configuration. GET retrieves the representation of a resource without intending to create it. The proposed plan misses the two stated outcomes.

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 71

A branch workstation uses 192.0.2.66/27. The default gateway must be in the same subnet and must not be a network or broadcast address. Which is a valid candidate gateway?

  1. 192.0.2.95
  2. 192.0.2.96
  3. 192.0.2.64
  4. 192.0.2.65

Explanation

Correct Answer

D:

The /27 block is .64–.95. Address .65 is an ordinary host inside the same subnet; .64 and .95 are reserved boundary addresses.

Incorrect Answers

A:

This is the /27 directed broadcast address and cannot be the ordinary gateway host.

B:

This is the next /27 network identifier, not on the workstation subnet.

C:

This is the network identifier of the current /27.

Question 72

A branch design for Willowbrook Transit has two requirements: (1) size an IPv4 subnet for at least 50 ordinary host addresses, and (2) create equal /27 subnets from a /24. Which plan correctly handles both requirements?

  1. First, use show ipv6 route; then split the /24 into eight blocks of 32 addresses.
  2. First, choose a /26 subnet with 62 usable addresses; then use channels 1, 6 and 11.
  3. First, choose a /26 subnet with 62 usable addresses; then split the /24 into eight blocks of 32 addresses.
  4. First, use a Layer 3 switch with switched virtual interfaces and IP routing; then make both link ends negotiate or explicitly agree on matching duplex.

Explanation

Correct Answer

C:

Both outcomes are covered: (1) Six host bits yield 64 total addresses, generally 62 usable after network and broadcast. (2) Borrowing three host bits creates eight /27 subnets, each normally offering 30 usable hosts. Neither action is a substitute for the other.

Incorrect Answers

A:

The second step covers (2), but the first addresses display the IPv6 forwarding table on a Cisco router. The IPv6 routing table exposes connected, static and learned IPv6 destinations. It leaves outcome (1) unfulfilled.

B:

The first step covers (1), but the second addresses select three nonoverlapping 20-MHz 2.4-GHz Wi-Fi channels in a common regulatory domain. These nominal 20-MHz channel centers reduce adjacent-channel overlap in 2.4 GHz. It leaves outcome (2) unfulfilled.

D:

Neither step is the requested pair: Use a Layer 3 switch with switched virtual interfaces and IP routing is for enable inter-VLAN routing on a campus distribution device, and Make both link ends negotiate or explicitly agree on matching duplex is for resolve an Ethernet link showing late collisions and duplex inconsistency. SVIs terminate VLAN IP subnets while hardware routing forwards packets between VLANs. The proposed plan misses the two stated outcomes.

Question 73

At Lighthouse Medical, an engineer must identify the route of last resort in an IPv4 routing table. Which action directly meets this requirement?

  1. Compare administrative distances of static 1 and OSPF 110
  2. Use an installed 0.0.0.0/0 default route
  3. Find the default 0.0.0.0/0 route and gateway of last resort
  4. Deploy a first-hop redundancy protocol with a virtual gateway address

Explanation

Correct Answer

C:

A default route handles destinations not covered by a more-specific installed route. This is the control that implements the specified requirement.

Incorrect Answers

A:

Administrative distance selects the preferred source of identical-prefix routes before comparing metrics. That is not sufficient here: A default route handles destinations not covered by a more-specific installed route.

B:

The default matches any IPv4 destination not better matched by another prefix. That is not sufficient here: A default route handles destinations not covered by a more-specific installed route.

D:

FHRPs let clients use one virtual default gateway while eligible routers coordinate active forwarding. That is not sufficient here: A default route handles destinations not covered by a more-specific installed route.

Question 74

A network upgrade at Granite Works has two requirements: (1) send brief time-sensitive voice media without waiting for retransmissions, and (2) verify that an IPv6 interface has a link-local address. Which proposed plan satisfies both outcomes?

  1. First, use a Layer 3 switch with switched virtual interfaces and IP routing; then use a hypervisor hosting separate virtual machines.
  2. First, use UDP with an application-appropriate real-time protocol; then recognize an FE80::/10 address with outgoing-interface context.
  3. First, use UDP with an application-appropriate real-time protocol; then inspect show ipv6 interface for the FE80::/10 link-local address.
  4. First, inspect MAC table relearning and dynamic aging; then inspect show ipv6 interface for the FE80::/10 link-local address.

Explanation

Correct Answer

C:

Both outcomes are covered: (1) UDP avoids built-in retransmission delays and reliability is managed by the application. (2) Link-local addresses are used for on-link neighbor discovery and routing adjacencies. Neither action is a substitute for the other.

Incorrect Answers

A:

Neither step is the requested pair: Use a Layer 3 switch with switched virtual interfaces and IP routing is for enable inter-VLAN routing on a campus distribution device, and Use a hypervisor hosting separate virtual machines is for run isolated guest operating systems on shared physical hardware. SVIs terminate VLAN IP subnets while hardware routing forwards packets between VLANs. The proposed plan misses the two stated outcomes.

B:

The first step covers (1), but the second addresses identify an IPv6 link-local next hop. A link-local IPv6 address is only meaningful on its link and may require an interface zone. It leaves outcome (2) unfulfilled.

D:

The second step covers (2), but the first addresses resolve why a moved host is still associated with an old switch port. The switch relearns a source MAC when frames arrive on the new port and ages idle entries. It leaves outcome (1) unfulfilled.

Question 75

At Cascade Health, an engineer must deliver predictable east-west paths among multiple data-center racks. What action meets this technical need?

  1. Use a Layer 2 Ethernet switch
  2. Add or update the source MAC and VLAN entry on the receiving interface
  3. Use a spine-leaf topology with leaf-to-spine uplinks
  4. Use IPv6 anycast with routing toward the common address

Explanation

Correct Answer

C:

Each leaf reaches other leaves through spine devices, reducing variable hop counts. This is the control that implements the specified requirement.

Incorrect Answers

A:

A Layer 2 switch learns source MAC addresses and forwards frames by destination MAC within a broadcast domain. That is not sufficient here: Each leaf reaches other leaves through spine devices, reducing variable hop counts.

B:

A learning switch updates its CAM table from the incoming frame's source address. That is not sufficient here: Each leaf reaches other leaves through spine devices, reducing variable hop counts.

D:

Anycast uses one unicast-format address on multiple nodes and routing selects a reachable instance. That is not sufficient here: Each leaf reaches other leaves through spine devices, reducing variable hop counts.

Question 76

A network upgrade at Sable Ridge Manufacturing has two requirements: (1) run isolated guest operating systems on shared physical hardware, and (2) determine which network a configured IPv4 host belongs to. Select TWO actions that together satisfy both outcomes.

  1. Review the negotiated speed and the cable/PHY capabilities on both ends
  2. Use a hypervisor hosting separate virtual machines
  3. Identify the address with all host bits set to one
  4. Apply the subnet mask bitwise to the host address
  5. Use compatible single-mode fiber transceivers and fiber

Explanation

Correct Answers

B:

Correct for outcome (1): Server virtualization separates VM operating systems while sharing physical CPU and memory. The other outcome needs its separate action.

D:

Correct for outcome (2): The IPv4 network address is the bitwise AND of the IP address and subnet mask. It complements the first required control.

Incorrect Answers

A:

Not selected: Review the negotiated speed and the cable/PHY capabilities on both ends is for check why two 1-Gbps endpoints link at only 100 Mbps. Autonegotiation and cabling quality can constrain the actual operating link speed. This does not provide either of the two specified controls.

C:

Not selected: Identify the address with all host bits set to one is for distinguish a directed broadcast from an ordinary host IP. The all-ones host portion represents the subnet-directed broadcast in ordinary IPv4 subnets. This is not one of the two required changes.

E:

Not selected: Use compatible single-mode fiber transceivers and fiber is for run a long-distance optical link requiring low dispersion. Single-mode fiber carries one principal propagation mode and supports long distances with appropriate optics. This is outside the two requested outcomes.

Question 77

A change advisory for Copperline Studios has two requirements: (1) provide time to downstream clients from a locally chosen reference when isolated, and (2) classify which router interface is inside and which is outside for NAT. Select TWO actions that together satisfy both outcomes.

  1. Configure an eligible NTP master or approved local reference
  2. Recognize Discover, Offer, Request, Acknowledge
  3. Inspect show ntp associations and show ntp status
  4. Set ip nat inside and ip nat outside on correct interfaces
  5. Use NTP on network devices and log servers

Explanation

Correct Answers

A:

Correct for outcome (1): A local time source can serve NTP within an isolated network, subject to synchronization policy. The other outcome needs its separate action.

D:

Correct for outcome (2): NAT direction depends on the configured inside/outside interface roles. It complements the first required control.

Incorrect Answers

B:

Not selected: Recognize Discover, Offer, Request, Acknowledge is for understand the normal initial IPv4 DHCP address-acquisition exchange. DORA negotiates a leased IPv4 address and associated network options. This does not provide either of the two specified controls.

C:

Not selected: Inspect show ntp associations and show ntp status is for verify whether a router has selected a valid NTP peer. NTP status shows synchronization state, peers and stratum information. This is not one of the two required changes.

E:

Not selected: Use NTP on network devices and log servers is for explain why consistent syslog timestamps require time synchronization. A common time reference makes event correlation meaningful across independently clocked devices. This is outside the two requested outcomes.

Question 78

A campus distribution switch must keep a user-access uplink forwarding only while the connected switch does not claim to be the STP root. A newly attached switch sends superior BPDUs on that uplink. Which protection matches the design?

  1. Configure PortFast on the interswitch uplink with no protections.
  2. Configure BPDU guard and require a manual reopen for all ordinary switch BPDUs.
  3. Disable STP on the downlink permanently.
  4. Enable spanning-tree root guard on the downstream switch link.

Explanation

Correct Answer

D:

Root guard prevents that port from accepting an unapproved superior root and places it in root-inconsistent state until the superior BPDUs stop.

Incorrect Answers

A:

PortFast is for appropriate endpoint-facing links and can cause unsafe fast forwarding when used on a switch interconnect.

B:

BPDU guard is typically for host-facing ports; it is not the intended way to let this downstream switch participate without becoming root.

C:

Turning off loop prevention increases the chance of a Layer 2 loop and does not preserve the authorized topology.

Question 79

An operations ticket for Hillcrest Utilities has two requirements: (1) troubleshoot an EtherChannel member suspended after differing switchport configurations, and (2) connect enterprise WLAN clients using a passphrase rather than per-user RADIUS credentials. Which option meets both stated needs?

  1. First, explicitly set switchport mode access on the endpoint-facing port; then configure trunk and allowed VLANs on the port-channel interface.
  2. First, align trunk or access settings and permitted VLANs across members; then consider FlexConnect operation on supported APs.
  3. First, align trunk or access settings and permitted VLANs across members; then configure a supported WPA2-Personal PSK WLAN.
  4. First, configure the same switchport trunk native vlan on both trunk ends; then configure a supported WPA2-Personal PSK WLAN.

Explanation

Correct Answer

C:

Both outcomes are covered: (1) Member interfaces require compatible Layer 2 parameters to join the same logical bundle. (2) WPA2-Personal authenticates users with the configured shared key, unlike enterprise 802.1X. Neither action is a substitute for the other.

Incorrect Answers

A:

Neither step is the requested pair: Explicitly set switchport mode access on the endpoint-facing port is for avoid a user access port automatically forming an unintended trunk, and Configure trunk and allowed VLANs on the port-channel interface is for keep an aggregated trunk's VLAN policy consistent. Access mode prevents the interface from carrying multiple data VLANs as a negotiated trunk. The proposed plan misses the two stated outcomes.

B:

The first step covers (1), but the second addresses support a remote site that cannot always reach the controller. FlexConnect supports selected local switching and local survivability behavior in branch deployments. It leaves outcome (2) unfulfilled.

D:

The second step covers (2), but the first addresses change the untagged VLAN on a trunk to match a remote neighbor. Native VLAN mismatch can place untagged traffic into different Layer 2 broadcast domains. It leaves outcome (1) unfulfilled.

Question 80

During a review, the administrator for Stonebridge Learning is asked to identify a surge of runts on a shared half-duplex Ethernet link. Which approach satisfies the precise requirement?

  1. Investigate collisions and faulty transmission or cabling
  2. Flood to other forwarding ports in that VLAN
  3. Recognize globally routable 2000::/3 unicast addresses
  4. Deploy a SOHO integrated gateway

Explanation

Correct Answer

A:

Frames shorter than the Ethernet minimum can arise from collision-related fragments or media defects. This is the control that implements the specified requirement.

Incorrect Answers

B:

Unknown unicast flooding is confined to the VLAN because the switch lacks a destination entry. That is not sufficient here: Frames shorter than the Ethernet minimum can arise from collision-related fragments or media defects.

C:

IPv6 global unicast ranges provide global routing scope subject to assigned prefixes and filters. That is not sufficient here: Frames shorter than the Ethernet minimum can arise from collision-related fragments or media defects.

D:

An all-in-one small-office appliance consolidates routing, NAT, Ethernet access and Wi-Fi. That is not sufficient here: Frames shorter than the Ethernet minimum can arise from collision-related fragments or media defects.
