Cisco 200-301 Practice Test 80

Question 790

At Sable Ridge Manufacturing, an engineer must interpret an interface that is administratively down. Which action directly meets this requirement?

  1. Use compatible multimode fiber for the specified reach
  2. Enable a supported WPA2/WPA3 encrypted WLAN security policy
  3. Recognize UDP's connectionless best-effort transport
  4. Issue no shutdown on the intended interface after checking change authority

Explanation

Correct Answer

D:

Administratively down indicates a configuration state rather than proof of failed physical media. This is the control that implements the specified requirement.

Incorrect Answers

A:

Multimode fiber and matching optics suit many short data-center or campus uplinks. That is not sufficient here: Administratively down indicates a configuration state rather than proof of failed physical media.

B:

A protected WLAN uses authenticated key establishment and link encryption, not only SSID hiding. That is not sufficient here: Administratively down indicates a configuration state rather than proof of failed physical media.

C:

UDP sends datagrams without TCP-style acknowledgments, sequencing or congestion recovery. That is not sufficient here: Administratively down indicates a configuration state rather than proof of failed physical media.

Question 791

During a review, the administrator for Cascade Health is asked to publish a wireless network name for corporate users from a WLC. Which approach satisfies the precise requirement?

  1. Apply an appropriate WLC wireless QoS profile
  2. Create and enable the WLAN/SSID in the controller GUI
  3. Consider FlexConnect operation on supported APs
  4. Enable Root Guard on the intended designated port

Explanation

Correct Answer

B:

The WLAN profile binds an SSID to its wireless security and policy configuration. This is the control that implements the specified requirement.

Incorrect Answers

A:

Wireless QoS maps traffic classes to airtime/queuing behavior for supported workloads. That is not sufficient here: The WLAN profile binds an SSID to its wireless security and policy configuration.

C:

FlexConnect supports selected local switching and local survivability behavior in branch deployments. That is not sufficient here: The WLAN profile binds an SSID to its wireless security and policy configuration.

D:

Root Guard holds the port in a root-inconsistent state if superior BPDUs arrive. That is not sufficient here: The WLAN profile binds an SSID to its wireless security and policy configuration.

Question 792

A branch design for Eastbrook Labs has two requirements: (1) verify user identity before permitting an administrative login, and (2) decide whether an authenticated user may issue a privileged configuration command. Select TWO actions that together satisfy both outcomes.

  1. Use authorization policies for the requested action
  2. Configure appropriate peer identity authentication and negotiated cryptographic algorithms
  3. Recognize WPA as older and prefer stronger supported alternatives
  4. Use authentication as the first AAA function
  5. Recognize IPsec ESP confidentiality and integrity protection

Explanation

Correct Answers

A:

Correct for outcome (2): Authorization grants or denies specific operations after identity is established. It complements the first required control.

D:

Correct for outcome (1): Authentication proves who or what is requesting access. The other outcome needs its separate action.

Incorrect Answers

B:

Not selected: Configure appropriate peer identity authentication and negotiated cryptographic algorithms is for separate VPN encryption from peer authentication in an IPsec negotiation. A usable IPsec tunnel depends on peers authenticating and agreeing on protection parameters. This does not provide either of the two specified controls.

C:

Not selected: Recognize WPA as older and prefer stronger supported alternatives is for identify a wireless security mode using legacy TKIP and known weaknesses. WPA introduced improvements over WEP but its TKIP design is weaker than modern WPA2/WPA3. This is outside the two requested outcomes.

E:

Not selected: Recognize IPsec ESP confidentiality and integrity protection is for explain what ESP protects in common IPsec tunnels. ESP can encrypt payloads and provide authenticated integrity for protected packets. This is not one of the two required changes.

Question 793

During a review, the administrator for Willowbrook Transit is asked to explain why a point-to-point OSPF link has no DR election. Which approach satisfies the precise requirement?

  1. Expect an FHRP backup peer to assume the virtual gateway role
  2. Configure the matching OSPF area number on their shared link
  3. Compare OSPF path metrics for the eligible equal-distance protocol routes
  4. Recognize point-to-point OSPF network type

Explanation

Correct Answer

D:

Point-to-point OSPF forms a direct adjacency without broadcast-media DR/BDR roles. This is the control that implements the specified requirement.

Incorrect Answers

A:

First-hop redundancy coordinates gateway ownership and failover for attached hosts. That is not sufficient here: Point-to-point OSPF forms a direct adjacency without broadcast-media DR/BDR roles.

B:

OSPF neighbors must agree on the area for an eligible adjacency. That is not sufficient here: Point-to-point OSPF forms a direct adjacency without broadcast-media DR/BDR roles.

C:

Within one protocol and destination prefix the protocol metric selects preferred path cost. That is not sufficient here: Point-to-point OSPF forms a direct adjacency without broadcast-media DR/BDR roles.

Question 794

A network upgrade at Granite Works has two requirements: (1) route an unknown destination when no more-specific route is present, and (2) distinguish static route entries from learned routes. Which proposed plan satisfies both outcomes?

  1. First, use ip route 10.40.8.0 255.255.254.0 with the valid next hop; then find the default 0.0.0.0/0 route and gateway of last resort.
  2. First, configure router-id under the OSPF process and restart the process when required; then recognize the S routing table code.
  3. First, use an installed 0.0.0.0/0 default route; then give the backup static route AD higher than OSPF's 110.
  4. First, use an installed 0.0.0.0/0 default route; then recognize the S routing table code.

Explanation

Correct Answer

D:

Both outcomes are covered: (1) The default matches any IPv4 destination not better matched by another prefix. (2) Cisco IOS marks configured static routes with S in show ip route. Neither action is a substitute for the other.

Incorrect Answers

A:

Neither step is the requested pair: Use ip route 10.40.8.0 255.255.254.0 with the valid next hop is for install a network static route to 10.40.8.0/23, and Find the default 0.0.0.0/0 route and gateway of last resort is for identify the route of last resort in an IPv4 routing table. A /23 mask covers the two adjacent /24s 10.40.8.0 and 10.40.9.0. The proposed plan misses the two stated outcomes.

B:

The second step covers (2), but the first addresses set an OSPF router ID explicitly to avoid unexpected election. An explicitly configured 32-bit router ID has priority over automatic loopback/interface selection. It leaves outcome (1) unfulfilled.

C:

The first step covers (1), but the second addresses provide a static backup only if an OSPF route to the same prefix disappears. A floating static route loses normally but is installed when the preferred OSPF route is withdrawn. It leaves outcome (2) unfulfilled.

Question 795

A network upgrade at Riverside Data has two requirements: (1) mark traffic for downstream QoS treatment without changing application payload, and (2) prioritize voice packets during transient interface congestion. Which option meets both stated needs?

  1. First, provide a DHCP scope with a valid address pool and options; then use a bounded low-latency priority queue for the voice class.
  2. First, apply traffic shaping to buffer and pace excess packets; then use show ip nat translations on the translating router.
  3. First, set an appropriate DSCP marking at a trusted policy boundary; then configure SNMP traps or informs to an authorized receiver.
  4. First, set an appropriate DSCP marking at a trusted policy boundary; then use a bounded low-latency priority queue for the voice class.

Explanation

Correct Answer

D:

Both outcomes are covered: (1) DSCP bits in the IP header signal intended per-hop forwarding treatment. (2) Priority queuing reduces delay and jitter for latency-sensitive traffic if policed appropriately. Neither action is a substitute for the other.

Incorrect Answers

A:

The second step covers (2), but the first addresses allocate IPv4 addresses, mask, gateway and DNS information automatically to clients. DHCP leases IP parameters so clients need not be statically configured. It leaves outcome (1) unfulfilled.

B:

Neither step is the requested pair: Apply traffic shaping to buffer and pace excess packets is for smooth a bursty outbound application below a contracted rate, and Use show ip nat translations on the translating router is for verify active inside-local and inside-global address mappings. Shaping delays packets to meet an average rate rather than immediately dropping all excess. The proposed plan misses the two stated outcomes.

C:

The first step covers (1), but the second addresses notify monitoring of a significant device event without waiting for a poll. SNMP notifications push device events to a management station. It leaves outcome (2) unfulfilled.

Question 796

A branch design for Stonebridge Learning has two requirements: (1) protect traffic between branch routers over an untrusted WAN, and (2) protect an individual remote employee connecting from public Wi-Fi. Which plan correctly handles both requirements?

  1. First, install vendor-approved security patches or mitigations; then deploy an approved remote-access VPN client and headend.
  2. First, deploy an IPsec site-to-site VPN tunnel; then add an explicit permit for eligible remaining traffic.
  3. First, mark only the legitimate server-facing or relay uplink as DHCP snooping trusted; then deny TCP destination port 23 with the intended host match, and permit TCP 22 as required.
  4. First, deploy an IPsec site-to-site VPN tunnel; then deploy an approved remote-access VPN client and headend.

Explanation

Correct Answer

D:

Both outcomes are covered: (1) Site-to-site IPsec protects routed flows between security gateways over an untrusted underlay. (2) Remote access VPNs establish an encrypted session for an individual endpoint. Neither action is a substitute for the other.

Incorrect Answers

A:

The second step covers (2), but the first addresses limit risk from a publicly disclosed software CVE on network gear. Fixing or mitigating a known vulnerability reduces exploitability on exposed devices. It leaves outcome (1) unfulfilled.

B:

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.

C:

Neither step is the requested pair: Mark only the legitimate server-facing or relay uplink as DHCP snooping trusted is for avoid allowing untrusted access ports to forward forged DHCP server responses, and 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. A trusted uplink assignment without global and VLAN DHCP snooping enablement does not itself block rogue server replies on user access ports. The proposed plan misses the two stated outcomes.

Question 797

Four OSPF routers become eligible simultaneously on an Ethernet broadcast segment, with no existing DR/BDR: R1 (priority 1, router ID 10.255.0.194); R2 (priority 1, router ID 10.255.0.175); R3 (priority 1, router ID 10.255.0.169); R4 (priority 1, router ID 10.255.0.83). All four routers now have equal interface priority. Which router wins the DR election based on the router-ID tie-breaker?

  1. R1 (priority 1, router ID 10.255.0.194)
  2. R2 (priority 1, router ID 10.255.0.175)
  3. R4 (priority 1, router ID 10.255.0.83)
  4. R3 (priority 1, router ID 10.255.0.169)

Explanation

Correct Answer

A:

All routers have equal OSPF priority 1; the highest router ID, 10.255.0.194, wins the DR election.

Incorrect Answers

B:

R2 has the same priority as its peers but router ID 10.255.0.175 is below 10.255.0.194; router ID decides a priority tie.

C:

R4 has the same priority as its peers but router ID 10.255.0.83 is below 10.255.0.194; router ID decides a priority tie.

D:

R3 has the same priority as its peers but router ID 10.255.0.169 is below 10.255.0.194; router ID decides a priority tie.

Question 798

A branch design for Willowbrook Transit has two requirements: (1) restrict which source subnet is eligible for dynamic NAT, and (2) verify whether a router has selected a valid NTP peer. Which proposed plan satisfies both outcomes?

  1. First, recognize Discover, Offer, Request, Acknowledge; then configure remote syslog logging host and appropriate transport settings.
  2. First, build a standard NAT ACL matching only approved inside-local addresses; then inspect show ntp associations and show ntp status.
  3. First, build a standard NAT ACL matching only approved inside-local addresses; then configure SNMP traps or informs to an authorized receiver.
  4. First, expect the client to send DHCPREQUEST and receive DHCPACK on success; then inspect show ntp associations and show ntp status.

Explanation

Correct Answer

B:

Both outcomes are covered: (1) The NAT selection ACL decides which inside sources may be translated using the pool. (2) NTP status shows synchronization state, peers and stratum information. Neither action is a substitute for the other.

Incorrect Answers

A:

Neither step is the requested pair: Recognize Discover, Offer, Request, Acknowledge is for understand the normal initial IPv4 DHCP address-acquisition exchange, and Configure remote syslog logging host and appropriate transport settings is for send router logs to a centralized log server. DORA negotiates a leased IPv4 address and associated network options. The proposed plan misses the two stated outcomes.

C:

The first step covers (1), but the second addresses notify monitoring of a significant device event without waiting for a poll. SNMP notifications push device events to a management station. It leaves outcome (2) unfulfilled.

D:

The second step covers (2), but the first addresses interpret a client renewing an existing DHCP lease. A lease renewal requests continued use of the address from a DHCP server. It leaves outcome (1) unfulfilled.

Question 799

A network upgrade at Pinecrest Schools has two requirements: (1) identify one benefit of controller-based networks over traditional manual operations, and (2) explain why controller failure does not necessarily stop all existing forwarding. Select TWO actions that together satisfy both outcomes.

  1. Use before-and-after state validation with explicit invariants
  2. Recognize consistent policy deployment through a central controller
  3. Distinguish distributed device data planes from centralized management/control functions
  4. Use Ansible playbooks and modules with device groups
  5. Recognize HTTP status 201 Created where the API follows that convention

Explanation

Correct Answers

B:

Correct for outcome (1): A controller can translate intent into coordinated device settings across a network. The other outcome needs its separate action.

C:

Correct for outcome (2): Depending on architecture, devices can continue forwarding installed state when the controller is unreachable. It complements the first required control.

Incorrect Answers

A:

Not selected: Use before-and-after state validation with explicit invariants is for verify that a network automation run changed only intended fields. Automated configuration still needs evidence that live devices match the authorized target. This is outside the two requested outcomes.

D:

Not selected: Use Ansible playbooks and modules with device groups is for apply the same network configuration task across devices from an inventory file. Ansible inventories and playbooks run repeatable tasks across selected managed devices. This does not provide either of the two specified controls.

E:

Not selected: Recognize HTTP status 201 Created where the API follows that convention is for interpret a successful REST resource creation response. HTTP 201 indicates a resource was created, often with a Location header. This is not one of the two required changes.

Question 800

A change request at Riverside Data following a scheduled maintenance window requires the team to enforce documented security rules across an organization. Which option directly addresses the stated need?

  1. Apply ip access-group ACLNAME in on the selected interface
  2. Publish clear policies and train staff on approved handling procedures
  3. Create username entries with the secret option and appropriate privilege
  4. Match the PSK configured on the WLAN and clients

Explanation

Correct Answer

B:

Security programs combine policy, awareness and repeatable operational practice. This is the control that implements the specified requirement.

Incorrect Answers

A:

The in direction checks arriving packets before routed forwarding toward their destination. That is not sufficient here: Security programs combine policy, awareness and repeatable operational practice.

C:

IOS username secret stores a protected password hash rather than literal cleartext configuration. That is not sufficient here: Security programs combine policy, awareness and repeatable operational practice.

D:

WPA2-Personal handshake succeeds only when both sides derive the same key material. That is not sufficient here: Security programs combine policy, awareness and repeatable operational practice.
