Cisco 200-301 Practice Test 93

Question 920

Two Cisco switches have VLAN 10 and VLAN 20 configured. Gi1/0/48 is administratively set to access mode on one end and trunk mode on the other, and only VLAN 10 communication works. What is the primary correction for carrying both VLANs over this link?

  1. Change the native VLAN to 20 on the access-mode end while leaving the port in access mode.
  2. Create an additional IP default route on each switch instead of correcting Layer 2 trunking.
  3. Configure the interswitch uplink to operate as an 802.1Q trunk on both ends, then verify the needed VLANs are allowed.
  4. Remove VLAN 20 from the permitted list on both ends to avoid the mismatch.

Explanation

Correct Answer

C:

A port operating as access cannot carry two separate tagged client VLANs; the link must be consistently trunked.

Incorrect Answers

A:

A native-VLAN setting does not make an access-mode port carry multiple tagged VLANs.

B:

Routing entries cannot substitute for a correctly configured multi-VLAN Layer 2 uplink.

D:

Removing VLAN 20 prevents the required VLAN from traversing the trunk.

Question 921

A change advisory for Pinecrest Schools has two requirements: (1) choose a VPN topology for dozens of branches connecting two headquarters networks, and (2) protect traffic between branch routers over an untrusted WAN. Which option addresses both requirements?

  1. First, use controlled site-to-site IPsec gateway tunnels; then configure switchport port-security maximum 2 on the access interface.
  2. First, use authentication as the first AAA function; then deploy an IPsec site-to-site VPN tunnel.
  3. First, use accounting in an AAA architecture; then account for the implicit deny at the end of the ACL.
  4. First, use controlled site-to-site IPsec gateway tunnels; then deploy an IPsec site-to-site VPN tunnel.

Explanation

Correct Answer

D:

Both outcomes are covered: (1) Gateway-to-gateway VPNs connect entire protected subnets without requiring each host a remote-access client. (2) Site-to-site IPsec protects routed flows between security gateways over an untrusted underlay. Neither action is a substitute for the other.

Incorrect Answers

A:

The first step covers (1), but the second addresses limit an access switchport to two learned endpoint MAC addresses. Port security can cap how many source MAC addresses the port accepts. It leaves outcome (2) unfulfilled.

B:

The second step covers (2), but the first addresses verify user identity before permitting an administrative login. Authentication proves who or what is requesting access. It leaves outcome (1) unfulfilled.

C:

Neither step is the requested pair: Use accounting in an AAA architecture is for record when an administrator logs in and what actions occurred, and Account for the implicit deny at the end of the ACL is for explain why packets not matching any explicit ACL permit are dropped. Accounting generates activity records for later auditing and troubleshooting. The proposed plan misses the two stated outcomes.

Question 922

A router interface is 10.4.5.130/25. Another engineer claims 10.4.5.100 is inside the same IPv4 subnet. What is the correct assessment?

  1. They are on the same /25 because both start 10.4.5
  2. Both are invalid host addresses because /25 supports no hosts
  3. They form the same /24 because a workstation can ignore the configured mask
  4. They are in different /25 networks: .130 belongs to .128–.255, while .100 belongs to .0–.127.

Explanation

Correct Answer

D:

A /25 splits the /24 at .128. Merely sharing the first three octets does not put the two hosts in the same configured subnet.

Incorrect Answers

A:

That reasoning ignores the most significant bit of the final octet in a /25.

B:

A /25 has 126 ordinary host addresses in each half of the /24.

C:

The stated /25 mask controls on-link determination; silently using /24 changes the network design.

Question 923

An acceptance check at Baypoint Retail has two requirements: (1) deliver a frame with a known unicast destination in the same VLAN, and (2) handle an unknown unicast destination received on one VLAN. Select TWO actions that together satisfy both outcomes.

  1. Flood to other forwarding ports in that VLAN
  2. Allocate a unique /64 subnet within the /48 block
  3. Use fiber-optic cabling with suitable optics
  4. Forward only through the learned destination port unless it is the ingress port
  5. Run ip address show on Linux

Explanation

Correct Answers

A:

Correct for outcome (2): Unknown unicast flooding is confined to the VLAN because the switch lacks a destination entry. It complements the first required control.

D:

Correct for outcome (1): Known unicast switching uses the CAM destination lookup to avoid unnecessary flooding. The other outcome needs its separate action.

Incorrect Answers

B:

Not selected: Allocate a unique /64 subnet within the /48 block is for derive an IPv6 subnet prefix from a /48 allocation for a single LAN. A /48 leaves 16 subnet ID bits for up to 65,536 conventional /64 networks. This does not provide either of the two specified controls.

C:

Not selected: Use fiber-optic cabling with suitable optics is for select a medium immune to electromagnetic interference in an industrial plant. Optical signaling is not affected by electrical EMI in the way copper signaling can be. This is not one of the two required changes.

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 outside the two requested outcomes.

Question 924

A network upgrade at Stonebridge Learning has two requirements: (1) prefer centralized network access AAA over per-switch local users where supported, and (2) verify which ACL entries have matches during traffic tests. Select TWO actions that together satisfy both outcomes.

  1. Use authentication as the first AAA function
  2. Use an approved RADIUS or TACACS+ server architecture
  3. Deploy an IPsec site-to-site VPN tunnel
  4. Use WPA3-Personal with compatible clients
  5. Inspect show access-lists counters on the device

Explanation

Correct Answers

B:

Correct for outcome (1): Central AAA provides shared identity policy and audit handling across multiple devices. The other outcome needs its separate action.

E:

Correct for outcome (2): IOS ACL match counters can show which permit or deny clauses see selected traffic. It complements the first required control.

Incorrect Answers

A:

Not selected: Use authentication as the first AAA function is for verify user identity before permitting an administrative login. Authentication proves who or what is requesting access. This does not provide either of the two specified controls.

C:

Not selected: Deploy an IPsec site-to-site VPN tunnel is for protect traffic between branch routers over an untrusted WAN. Site-to-site IPsec protects routed flows between security gateways over an untrusted underlay. This is not one of the two required changes.

D:

Not selected: Use WPA3-Personal with compatible clients is for gain SAE-based password authentication on a modern wireless LAN. WPA3-Personal uses SAE for password-authenticated key establishment. This is outside the two requested outcomes.

Question 925

Two OSPFv2 neighbors on an Ethernet segment reach ExStart/Exchange repeatedly and logs identify mismatched interface MTUs. IP address, area and hello/dead timers are correct. Which correction targets the actual failure?

  1. Raise one router DR priority until its database is accepted
  2. Change both router IDs to the same value so the exchange is symmetric
  3. Disable interface authentication while leaving mismatched MTUs
  4. Align the link MTUs with a supported design and verify DBD exchange progresses to Full.

Explanation

Correct Answer

D:

OSPF Database Description packets carry MTU information, and a mismatch can prevent ExStart/Exchange from completing even when hello messages are received.

Incorrect Answers

A:

DR election priority does not resolve the MTU mismatch in DBD negotiation.

B:

Duplicate router IDs create a separate neighbor identity problem and do not fix MTU.

C:

Changing authentication is unrelated when MTU mismatch is the observed blocker.

Question 926

An acceptance check at Lighthouse Medical has two requirements: (1) provide a static backup only if an OSPF route to the same prefix disappears, and (2) configure an IPv6 default route over a known link-local next hop. Select TWO actions that together satisfy both outcomes.

  1. Give the backup static route AD higher than OSPF's 110
  2. Use ipv6 route ::/0 with outgoing interface and link-local next hop
  3. Look for a route marked O in the IPv4 route table
  4. Recognize point-to-point OSPF network type
  5. Make their OSPF interface timers compatible

Explanation

Correct Answers

A:

Correct for outcome (1): A floating static route loses normally but is installed when the preferred OSPF route is withdrawn. The other outcome needs its separate action.

B:

Correct for outcome (2): The egress interface is required to disambiguate a link-local next-hop address. It complements the first required control.

Incorrect Answers

C:

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 is outside the two requested outcomes.

D:

Not selected: Recognize point-to-point OSPF network type is for explain why a point-to-point OSPF link has no DR election. Point-to-point OSPF forms a direct adjacency without broadcast-media DR/BDR roles. This is not one of the two required changes.

E:

Not selected: Make their OSPF interface timers compatible is for diagnose OSPF peers with different hello/dead intervals. Mismatched OSPF hello and dead intervals can prevent neighbor adjacency formation. This does not provide either of the two specified controls.

Question 927

An operations ticket for Cedarline Hotels has two requirements: (1) explain why consistent syslog timestamps require time synchronization, and (2) relay DHCP client broadcasts from a VLAN to a server in another subnet. Which option meets both stated needs?

  1. First, send syslog to an external authorized collector; then configure ip helper-address on the client VLAN interface.
  2. First, use NTP on network devices and log servers; then use TFTP in a trusted isolated management network.
  3. First, use NTP on network devices and log servers; then configure ip helper-address on the client VLAN interface.
  4. First, read the syslog facility and severity as distinct attributes; then configure remote syslog logging host and appropriate transport settings.

Explanation

Correct Answer

C:

Both outcomes are covered: (1) A common time reference makes event correlation meaningful across independently clocked devices. (2) DHCP relay forwards qualifying broadcast requests as unicast toward the configured server. Neither action is a substitute for the other.

Incorrect Answers

A:

The second step covers (2), but the first addresses retain events across a device reboot and aggregate by site. Local device buffers can be lost on reboot, while a log server retains centralized history. It leaves outcome (1) unfulfilled.

B:

The first step covers (1), but the second addresses move a configuration backup to a simple network file server with minimal protocol complexity. TFTP uses a minimal UDP transfer protocol without built-in authentication or encryption. It leaves outcome (2) unfulfilled.

D:

Neither step is the requested pair: Read the syslog facility and severity as distinct attributes is for separate which subsystem emitted a device log from its urgency, and Configure remote syslog logging host and appropriate transport settings is for send router logs to a centralized log server. Facility indicates message origin while severity indicates importance. The proposed plan misses the two stated outcomes.

Question 928

A branch design for Baypoint Retail has two requirements: (1) replace an entire resource representation through a REST endpoint, and (2) avoid treating a software-defined controller as a replacement for physical forwarding links. Select TWO actions that together satisfy both outcomes.

  1. Keep the underlay network operational for packet transport
  2. Use HTTP PUT where the API defines replacement semantics
  3. Use a southbound API or supported control protocol
  4. Send application/json with valid key-value object syntax
  5. Send an authenticated HTTP GET to the resource URI

Explanation

Correct Answers

A:

Correct for outcome (2): Controller-based policies still rely on forwarding infrastructure and physical connectivity. It complements the first required control.

B:

Correct for outcome (1): PUT generally supplies a complete new representation of a target resource. The other outcome needs its separate action.

Incorrect Answers

C:

Not selected: Use a southbound API or supported control protocol is for deliver controller policy to routers and switches using device-facing interfaces. Southbound interfaces connect the network controller to forwarding infrastructure. This does not provide either of the two specified controls.

D:

Not selected: Send application/json with valid key-value object syntax is for pass JSON data to a REST API endpoint. JSON encodes objects and arrays in a machine-readable representation accepted by many REST APIs. This is not one of the two required changes.

E:

Not selected: Send an authenticated HTTP GET to the resource URI is for retrieve a network device's configuration using a REST endpoint. GET retrieves the representation of a resource without intending to create it. This is outside the two requested outcomes.

Question 929

A network upgrade at Meridian Insurance has two requirements: (1) elect the designated router on a broadcast multiaccess segment, and (2) prevent one router from becoming DR on a broadcast segment. Which option addresses both requirements?

  1. First, investigate interface MTU mismatch and adjacency parameters; then compare administrative distances of static 1 and OSPF 110.
  2. First, compare OSPF interface priority, then router ID among eligible candidates; then set its OSPF interface priority to 0.
  3. First, allow equal-cost multipath when the platform and configuration permit it; then set its OSPF interface priority to 0.
  4. First, compare OSPF interface priority, then router ID among eligible candidates; then compare OSPF path metrics for the eligible equal-distance protocol routes.

Explanation

Correct Answer

B:

Both outcomes are covered: (1) Broadcast OSPF uses a DR/BDR election based on configured priority and router-ID tie breaks. (2) An OSPF priority of zero makes the router ineligible for DR or BDR election. Neither action is a substitute for the other.

Incorrect Answers

A:

Neither step is the requested pair: Investigate interface MTU mismatch and adjacency parameters is for explain why two OSPF routers remain stuck in EXSTART, and Compare administrative distances of static 1 and OSPF 110 is for choose a static route over an OSPF route to the exact same prefix when both are valid. OSPF database description negotiation can fail when peers disagree on MTU. The proposed plan misses the two stated outcomes.

C:

The second step covers (2), but the first addresses retain two equal-cost eligible OSPF routes for one prefix. ECMP can install several equally preferred next hops to the same exact prefix. It leaves outcome (1) unfulfilled.

D:

The first step covers (1), but the second addresses choose between OSPF routes for the same prefix learned from two paths. Within one protocol and destination prefix the protocol metric selects preferred path cost. It leaves outcome (2) unfulfilled.

Question 930

Sable Ridge Manufacturing needs to choose a static route over an OSPF route to the exact same prefix when both are valid. Which implementation directly addresses that objective without replacing it with a different network control?

  1. Compare administrative distances of static 1 and OSPF 110
  2. Deploy a first-hop redundancy protocol with a virtual gateway address
  3. Set its OSPF interface priority to 0
  4. Read the first bracketed value as administrative distance and the second as metric

Explanation

Correct Answer

A:

Administrative distance selects the preferred source of identical-prefix routes before comparing metrics. This is the control that implements the specified requirement.

Incorrect Answers

B:

FHRPs let clients use one virtual default gateway while eligible routers coordinate active forwarding. That is not sufficient here: Administrative distance selects the preferred source of identical-prefix routes before comparing metrics.

C:

An OSPF priority of zero makes the router ineligible for DR or BDR election. That is not sufficient here: Administrative distance selects the preferred source of identical-prefix routes before comparing metrics.

D:

IOS route display commonly uses [administrative distance/metric] following the route code. That is not sufficient here: Administrative distance selects the preferred source of identical-prefix routes before comparing metrics.
