Question 950

An operations ticket for Cascade Health has two requirements: (1) apply the same network configuration task across devices from an inventory file, and (2) provision cloud or network infrastructure from a declarative plan. Which proposed plan satisfies both outcomes?

  1. First, use Ansible playbooks and modules with device groups; then use Terraform configuration and a reviewed plan/apply workflow.
  2. First, use Ansible playbooks and modules with device groups; then recognize consistent policy deployment through a central controller.
  3. First, use anomaly detection with representative training or baseline data; then separate property pairs with commas and quote property names.
  4. First, use controlled network automation with validated templates; then use Terraform configuration and a reviewed plan/apply workflow.

Explanation

Correct Answer

A:

Both outcomes are covered: (1) Ansible inventories and playbooks run repeatable tasks across selected managed devices. (2) Terraform models desired infrastructure resources and computes changes before applying them. Neither action is a substitute for the other.

Incorrect Answers

B:

The first step covers (1), but the second addresses identify one benefit of controller-based networks over traditional manual operations. A controller can translate intent into coordinated device settings across a network. It leaves outcome (2) unfulfilled.

C:

Neither step is the requested pair: Use anomaly detection with representative training or baseline data is for detect anomalous device behavior from a baseline of normal traffic, and Separate property pairs with commas and quote property names is for avoid a syntax error when a JSON object has several fields. Anomaly detection identifies departures from learned normal patterns for investigation. The proposed plan misses the two stated outcomes.

D:

The second step covers (2), but the first addresses reduce manual repeated VLAN configuration errors across many devices. Automation applies repeatable tested configuration rather than relying on individually typed changes. It leaves outcome (1) unfulfilled.

Question 951

A network upgrade at Stonebridge Learning has two requirements: (1) retrieve a network device's configuration using a REST endpoint, and (2) limit the blast radius of a faulty automation deployment. Which option meets both stated needs?

  1. First, recognize an object property written as a quoted key followed by a colon; then use HTTP PUT where the API defines replacement semantics.
  2. First, use an overlay network or virtual segmentation policy; then roll out changes to a small validated device group before fleet-wide execution.
  3. First, send an authenticated HTTP GET to the resource URI; then use a generative AI assistant with verified source context.
  4. First, send an authenticated HTTP GET to the resource URI; then roll out changes to a small validated device group before fleet-wide execution.

Explanation

Correct Answer

D:

Both outcomes are covered: (1) GET retrieves the representation of a resource without intending to create it. (2) Staged automation reduces the number of devices affected by an unexpected template error. Neither action is a substitute for the other.

Incorrect Answers

A:

Neither step is the requested pair: Recognize an object property written as a quoted key followed by a colon is for identify the mapping between a JSON key and its associated value, and Use HTTP PUT where the API defines replacement semantics is for replace an entire resource representation through a REST endpoint. JSON objects store named properties with string keys and supported value types. The proposed plan misses the two stated outcomes.

B:

The second step covers (2), but the first addresses explain the logical segmentation created over a shared routed fabric. An overlay encodes logical connectivity and isolation on top of the underlay. It leaves outcome (1) unfulfilled.

C:

The first step covers (1), but the second addresses generate a human-readable incident summary from multiple device logs. Generative models produce natural-language explanations based on supplied events and evidence. It leaves outcome (2) unfulfilled.

Question 952

Two OSPFv2 interfaces can ping each other and use identical authentication, but their hello intervals are 10 seconds and 30 seconds respectively. Adjacency does not establish. Which setting must be reconciled?

  1. Only the switch port native VLAN, because timers never matter to OSPF
  2. The destination static route administrative distance
  3. The local console logging severity level
  4. The OSPF hello/dead timer configuration on the neighbors must be compatible.

Explanation

Correct Answer

D:

Neighbor hello parameters must agree on the relevant broadcast segment. Conflicting intervals prevent stable neighbor formation despite IP connectivity.

Incorrect Answers

A:

OSPF includes timer compatibility in neighbor establishment independently of a working VLAN.

B:

Static route preference cannot repair mismatched OSPF hello parameters.

C:

Syslog verbosity does not modify OSPF hello or dead intervals.

Question 953

A change advisory for Baypoint Retail has two requirements: (1) provide a static backup only if an OSPF route to the same prefix disappears, and (2) distinguish static route entries from learned routes. Which option addresses both requirements?

  1. First, give the backup static route AD higher than OSPF's 110; then recognize the S routing table code.
  2. First, configure router-id under the OSPF process and restart the process when required; then recognize the S routing table code.
  3. First, give the backup static route AD higher than OSPF's 110; then distinguish connected C entries from O or S routes.
  4. First, inspect show standby and active/standby states; then use ip route 198.51.100.77 255.255.255.255 with a valid next hop.

Explanation

Correct Answer

A:

Both outcomes are covered: (1) A floating static route loses normally but is installed when the preferred OSPF route is withdrawn. (2) Cisco IOS marks configured static routes with S in show ip route. Neither action is a substitute for the other.

Incorrect Answers

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 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 (2) unfulfilled.

D:

Neither step is the requested pair: Inspect show standby and active/standby states is for verify which Cisco router currently owns an HSRP virtual gateway, and Use ip route 198.51.100.77 255.255.255.255 with a valid next hop is for configure a static host route to one IPv4 server at 198.51.100.77. Cisco HSRP status identifies the virtual IP, role, priority, and participating peers. The proposed plan misses the two stated outcomes.

Question 954

An acceptance check at Greenfield Services has two requirements: (1) interpret an interface that is administratively down, and (2) power a ceiling AP through its Ethernet cable. Which proposed plan satisfies both outcomes?

  1. First, use a three-tier access/distribution/core architecture; then use an appropriate PoE-capable switchport and compatible power budget.
  2. First, issue no shutdown on the intended interface after checking change authority; then use an appropriate PoE-capable switchport and compatible power budget.
  3. First, use a WAN transport design with appropriate edge routers; then use scutil --dns on macOS.
  4. First, issue no shutdown on the intended interface after checking change authority; then deploy a SOHO integrated gateway.

Explanation

Correct Answer

B:

Both outcomes are covered: (1) Administratively down indicates a configuration state rather than proof of failed physical media. (2) PoE delivers specified electrical power over Ethernet pairs while carrying network traffic. Neither action is a substitute for the other.

Incorrect Answers

A:

The second step covers (2), but the first addresses separate access, aggregation, and backbone roles in a large campus. Separate tiers scale policy aggregation and fast backbone transport independently. It leaves outcome (1) unfulfilled.

C:

Neither step is the requested pair: Use a WAN transport design with appropriate edge routers is for connect branch locations across a provider-operated geographic network, and Use scutil --dns on macOS is for inspect DNS resolver settings on a macOS client. WAN connectivity links geographically separated LAN sites via a provider or overlay. The proposed plan misses the two stated outcomes.

D:

The first step covers (1), but the second addresses serve a home office with one combined firewall, switch, and wireless radio. An all-in-one small-office appliance consolidates routing, NAT, Ethernet access and Wi-Fi. It leaves outcome (2) unfulfilled.

Question 955

A network upgrade at Eastbrook Labs has two requirements: (1) apply stateful application-aware inspection at the edge, and (2) recognize an RFC1918 address in 172.16.0.0/12. Which option meets both stated needs?

  1. First, recognize an FE80::/10 address with outgoing-interface context; then flood to other forwarding ports in that VLAN.
  2. First, use a next-generation firewall with relevant application policies; then use an appropriate PoE-capable switchport and compatible power budget.
  3. First, use show mac address-table to inspect learned entries; then classify 172.16.0.0 through 172.31.255.255 as private.
  4. First, use a next-generation firewall with relevant application policies; then classify 172.16.0.0 through 172.31.255.255 as private.

Explanation

Correct Answer

D:

Both outcomes are covered: (1) A next-generation firewall can classify application traffic and track sessions before permitting flows. (2) Only 172.16/12 is private, not all addresses beginning 172. Neither action is a substitute for the other.

Incorrect Answers

A:

Neither step is the requested pair: Recognize an FE80::/10 address with outgoing-interface context is for identify an IPv6 link-local next hop, and Flood to other forwarding ports in that VLAN is for handle an unknown unicast destination received on one VLAN. A link-local IPv6 address is only meaningful on its link and may require an interface zone. The proposed plan misses the two stated outcomes.

B:

The first step covers (1), but the second addresses power a ceiling AP through its Ethernet cable. PoE delivers specified electrical power over Ethernet pairs while carrying network traffic. 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 956

Two OSPF routers share the same IPv4 subnet, hello/dead timers and area, but different OSPF authentication credentials were configured. They remain nonadjacent. What is the first relevant fix?

  1. Configure consistent supported OSPF authentication settings and keys on the two peers.
  2. Disable routing on the interface to bypass authentication
  3. Raise the DR priority on both routers
  4. Add a default IPv4 route toward the adjacent router

Explanation

Correct Answer

A:

Neighbor authentication must validate on both ends of the link. A key mismatch blocks acceptance of OSPF control packets even when the interface and timers are otherwise correct.

Incorrect Answers

B:

Turning off OSPF removes the desired neighbor relationship rather than authenticating it.

C:

Priority governs designated-router eligibility, not whether authentication checks pass.

D:

A default route is not a substitute for matching OSPF neighbor authentication.

Question 957

A branch design for Harborview Logistics has two requirements: (1) package a process with its libraries using the host operating system kernel, and (2) hold independent overlapping IP route tables on one router. Which option addresses both requirements?

  1. First, use IPv6 anycast with routing toward the common address; then use separate virtual routing and forwarding instances.
  2. First, use show ipv6 route; then use a router with interfaces or subinterfaces in both routed networks.
  3. First, use an OS-level container runtime; then use separate virtual routing and forwarding instances.
  4. First, use an OS-level container runtime; then use a Layer 2 Ethernet switch.

Explanation

Correct Answer

C:

Both outcomes are covered: (1) Containers share the host kernel while isolating processes and dependencies. (2) VRFs logically isolate routing tables even when interfaces share one physical platform. Neither action is a substitute for the other.

Incorrect Answers

A:

The second step covers (2), but the first addresses have several servers share one IPv6 service address delivered to the nearest instance. Anycast uses one unicast-format address on multiple nodes and routing selects a reachable instance. It leaves outcome (1) unfulfilled.

B:

Neither step is the requested pair: Use show ipv6 route is for display the IPv6 forwarding table on a Cisco router, and Use a router with interfaces or subinterfaces in both routed networks is for connect two IP subnets and forward packets between them. The IPv6 routing table exposes connected, static and learned IPv6 destinations. The proposed plan misses the two stated outcomes.

D:

The first step covers (1), but the second addresses provide wire-speed forwarding within the same access VLAN. A Layer 2 switch learns source MAC addresses and forwards frames by destination MAC within a broadcast domain. It leaves outcome (2) unfulfilled.

Question 958

A branch design for Riverside Data has two requirements: (1) troubleshoot client association failure when the WLC has an incorrect pre-shared key, and (2) permit only TCP port 443 to an internal HTTPS server. Which proposed plan satisfies both outcomes?

  1. First, use DHCP snooping on the client VLAN; then use an extended ACL permit tcp with the server destination and eq 443.
  2. First, match the PSK configured on the WLAN and clients; then apply ip access-group ACLNAME in on the selected interface.
  3. First, match the PSK configured on the WLAN and clients; then use an extended ACL permit tcp with the server destination and eq 443.
  4. First, use authenticated local users or centralized AAA over SSH; then account for the implicit deny at the end of the ACL.

Explanation

Correct Answer

C:

Both outcomes are covered: (1) WPA2-Personal handshake succeeds only when both sides derive the same key material. (2) An extended ACL can distinguish HTTPS TCP traffic from other server ports. Neither action is a substitute for the other.

Incorrect Answers

A:

The second step covers (2), but the first addresses build an authoritative IP-to-MAC-to-port binding table from legitimate DHCP leases. The snooping binding database records approved DHCP assignments for downstream validation. It leaves outcome (1) unfulfilled.

B:

The first step covers (1), but the second addresses attach an IPv4 ACL to traffic entering an interface. The in direction checks arriving packets before routed forwarding toward their destination. It leaves outcome (2) unfulfilled.

D:

Neither step is the requested pair: Use authenticated local users or centralized AAA over SSH is for stop unprotected VTY authentication with a shared weak line password, 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. Per-user authenticated access supports accountability and avoids weak shared credentials. The proposed plan misses the two stated outcomes.

Question 959

A change advisory for Granite Works has two requirements: (1) reduce manual repeated VLAN configuration errors across many devices, and (2) detect configuration drift across a fleet after a planned rollout. Select TWO actions that together satisfy both outcomes.

  1. Send an authenticated HTTP GET to the resource URI
  2. Compare collected device state against desired-state definitions
  3. Recognize the software-defined network fabric architecture
  4. Separate property pairs with commas and quote property names
  5. Use controlled network automation with validated templates

Explanation

Correct Answers

B:

Correct for outcome (2): Desired-state comparison reveals unexpected settings without making manual device-by-device assumptions. It complements the first required control.

E:

Correct for outcome (1): Automation applies repeatable tested configuration rather than relying on individually typed changes. The other outcome needs its separate action.

Incorrect Answers

A:

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.

C:

Not selected: Recognize the software-defined network fabric architecture is for name the combination of underlay, overlay, and policy/control services. A fabric integrates physical transport with virtual endpoints and centralized policy. This does not provide either of the two specified controls.

D:

Not selected: Separate property pairs with commas and quote property names is for avoid a syntax error when a JSON object has several fields. JSON object syntax requires comma-separated key/value pairs and double-quoted keys. This is not one of the two required changes.

Question 960

A branch design for Harborview Logistics has two requirements: (1) delete an authorized API resource by its URI, and (2) interpret a successful REST resource creation response. Which plan correctly handles both requirements?

  1. First, issue HTTP DELETE with required authentication and authorization; then recognize HTTP status 201 Created where the API follows that convention.
  2. First, keep traffic on programmed device forwarding paths; then recognize HTTP status 201 Created where the API follows that convention.
  3. First, issue HTTP DELETE with required authentication and authorization; then recognize an object property written as a quoted key followed by a colon.
  4. First, use controlled network automation with validated templates; then send application/json with valid key-value object syntax.

Explanation

Correct Answer

A:

Both outcomes are covered: (1) DELETE requests resource removal and must be permitted by the server's policy. (2) HTTP 201 indicates a resource was created, often with a Location header. Neither action is a substitute for the other.

Incorrect Answers

B:

The second step covers (2), but the first addresses recognize that SDN management is not literally a single router for every data packet. A controller supplies decisions/policies; deployed devices usually perform packet forwarding. It leaves outcome (1) unfulfilled.

C:

The first step covers (1), but the second addresses identify the mapping between a JSON key and its associated value. JSON objects store named properties with string keys and supported value types. It leaves outcome (2) unfulfilled.

D:

Neither step is the requested pair: Use controlled network automation with validated templates is for reduce manual repeated VLAN configuration errors across many devices, and Send application/json with valid key-value object syntax is for pass JSON data to a REST API endpoint. Automation applies repeatable tested configuration rather than relying on individually typed changes. The proposed plan misses the two stated outcomes.
