Cisco 200-301 Practice Test 98

Question 970

At Willowbrook Transit, an engineer must explain why indiscriminate BPDU filtering risks a bridging loop. Which action directly meets this requirement?

  1. Configure the switchport data access VLAN and switchport voice VLAN
  2. Check AP management IP, DHCP, DNS/discovery and routing to the WLC
  3. Configure VLAN SVIs with IP addresses and enable ip routing
  4. Avoid BPDU filter on unmanaged switch-to-switch links

Explanation

Correct Answer

D:

Suppressing BPDUs can hide redundant links from spanning-tree loop prevention. This is the control that implements the specified requirement.

Incorrect Answers

A:

A voice VLAN allows supported phones to tag voice traffic separately while forwarding the PC's data VLAN. That is not sufficient here: Suppressing BPDUs can hide redundant links from spanning-tree loop prevention.

B:

Layer 1 link up alone does not establish controller discovery and join reachability. That is not sufficient here: Suppressing BPDUs can hide redundant links from spanning-tree loop prevention.

C:

Layer 3 forwarding across VLANs requires an active routed interface for each subnet. That is not sufficient here: Suppressing BPDUs can hide redundant links from spanning-tree loop prevention.

Question 971

A branch design for Hillcrest Utilities has two requirements: (1) protect confidentiality of management credentials in transit, and (2) reduce blast radius if one user endpoint becomes compromised. Which option meets both stated needs?

  1. First, install vendor-approved security patches or mitigations; then publish clear policies and train staff on approved handling procedures.
  2. First, configure WPA2 PSK and a sufficiently strong passphrase in the WLC GUI; then segment access and apply least-privilege traffic rules.
  3. First, use authenticated encryption on management protocols; then use badge-controlled physical access with audited entry logs.
  4. First, use authenticated encryption on management protocols; then segment access and apply least-privilege traffic rules.

Explanation

Correct Answer

D:

Both outcomes are covered: (1) Encryption prevents passive observation of session data while authentication limits impersonation. (2) Segmentation limits lateral movement paths through network boundaries. Neither action is a substitute for the other.

Incorrect Answers

A:

Neither step is the requested pair: Install vendor-approved security patches or mitigations is for limit risk from a publicly disclosed software CVE on network gear, and Publish clear policies and train staff on approved handling procedures is for enforce documented security rules across an organization. Fixing or mitigating a known vulnerability reduces exploitability on exposed devices. The proposed plan misses the two stated outcomes.

B:

The second step covers (2), but the first addresses create a controller WLAN that uses WPA2-Personal for a lab SSID. A WPA2 PSK WLAN authenticates clients through the configured shared secret. It leaves outcome (1) unfulfilled.

C:

The first step covers (1), but the second addresses prevent unauthorized visitors from entering a network equipment room. Physical access controls reduce direct device tampering or console misuse. It leaves outcome (2) unfulfilled.

Question 972

At Granite Works, an engineer must ensure a specific host denial is evaluated before a broad permit. What action meets this technical need?

  1. Use an extended ACL permit tcp with the server destination and eq 443
  2. Match the PSK configured on the WLAN and clients
  3. Place the deny ACE earlier in sequence order
  4. Enable dynamic ARP inspection with valid bindings and trusted infrastructure links

Explanation

Correct Answer

C:

IOS ACL processing uses the first matching entry, so later entries are not checked after a match. This is the control that implements the specified requirement.

Incorrect Answers

A:

An extended ACL can distinguish HTTPS TCP traffic from other server ports. That is not sufficient here: IOS ACL processing uses the first matching entry, so later entries are not checked after a match.

B:

WPA2-Personal handshake succeeds only when both sides derive the same key material. That is not sufficient here: IOS ACL processing uses the first matching entry, so later entries are not checked after a match.

D:

DAI validates ARP address mappings against bindings or approved ARP ACLs. That is not sufficient here: IOS ACL processing uses the first matching entry, so later entries are not checked after a match.

Question 973

A router has IPv4 default route 0.0.0.0/0 via ISP-A and a static /24 route for 203.0.113.0/24 via a branch tunnel. Where will a packet for 203.0.113.55 be forwarded?

  1. To ISP-A because default routes override static routes configured later.
  2. Toward the branch-tunnel next hop, because the /24 is more specific than the default.
  3. To both paths with one packet copy per interface.
  4. It is dropped because /24 and /0 routes may not coexist.

Explanation

Correct Answer

B:

The forwarding lookup chooses the most specific matching route first; the ISP default covers destinations without a better match.

Incorrect Answers

A:

A /0 is least-specific and cannot replace an existing matching /24 solely by being a default.

C:

Overlapping prefixes are not equal-cost routes; the longer match governs the packet.

D:

A default route normally coexists with specific network paths, providing a last resort.

Question 974

Baypoint Retail needs to provide a controller-based WLAN where management and data can be centralized. Which implementation directly addresses that objective without replacing it with a different network control?

  1. Configure the same switchport trunk native vlan on both trunk ends
  2. Use lightweight APs with a WLC and their control tunnels
  3. Enable and inspect LLDP on the link
  4. Keep the alternate port discarding until needed

Explanation

Correct Answer

B:

The controller coordinates WLAN configuration and may centralize traffic depending on AP mode. This is the control that implements the specified requirement.

Incorrect Answers

A:

Native VLAN mismatch can place untagged traffic into different Layer 2 broadcast domains. That is not sufficient here: The controller coordinates WLAN configuration and may centralize traffic depending on AP mode.

C:

LLDP is a vendor-neutral Layer 2 discovery protocol that advertises neighbor identity and capabilities. That is not sufficient here: The controller coordinates WLAN configuration and may centralize traffic depending on AP mode.

D:

An alternate port provides a backup path that does not forward user frames during normal loop-free operation. That is not sufficient here: The controller coordinates WLAN configuration and may centralize traffic depending on AP mode.

Question 975

An IPv4 lab router uses a host route 203.0.113.7/32 to represent one loopback. What does the /32 prefix length select?

  1. The entire 203.0.113.0/24 subnet
  2. Exactly one IPv4 address, 203.0.113.7.
  3. All IPv4 destinations not covered elsewhere
  4. Two neighboring address values on a point-to-point link

Explanation

Correct Answer

B:

All 32 bits are fixed in a /32, so it is an individual host route and does not define a conventional multi-host LAN segment.

Incorrect Answers

A:

A /24 leaves eight host bits open; a /32 leaves none.

C:

That describes the 0.0.0.0/0 default, not a /32.

D:

A /31 has two values; a /32 names only the stated address.

Question 976

An acceptance check at Orion Shipping has two requirements: (1) power a ceiling AP through its Ethernet cable, and (2) protect wireless payloads from unauthenticated eavesdropping. Which plan correctly handles both requirements?

  1. First, inspect show ipv6 interface for the FE80::/10 link-local address; then validate gateway and host network portions under the configured mask.
  2. First, use an appropriate PoE-capable switchport and compatible power budget; then enable a supported WPA2/WPA3 encrypted WLAN security policy.
  3. First, recognize UDP's connectionless best-effort transport; then enable a supported WPA2/WPA3 encrypted WLAN security policy.
  4. First, use an appropriate PoE-capable switchport and compatible power budget; then recognize globally routable 2000::/3 unicast addresses.

Explanation

Correct Answer

B:

Both outcomes are covered: (1) PoE delivers specified electrical power over Ethernet pairs while carrying network traffic. (2) A protected WLAN uses authenticated key establishment and link encryption, not only SSID hiding. Neither action is a substitute for the other.

Incorrect Answers

A:

Neither step is the requested pair: Inspect show ipv6 interface for the FE80::/10 link-local address is for verify that an IPv6 interface has a link-local address, and Validate gateway and host network portions under the configured mask is for avoid assigning a gateway outside a host's IPv4 subnet. Link-local addresses are used for on-link neighbor discovery and routing adjacencies. The proposed plan misses the two stated outcomes.

C:

The second step covers (2), but the first addresses explain the absence of congestion and delivery guarantees in a datagram protocol. UDP sends datagrams without TCP-style acknowledgments, sequencing or congestion recovery. It leaves outcome (1) unfulfilled.

D:

The first step covers (1), but the second addresses distinguish a public-scope IPv6 unicast destination. IPv6 global unicast ranges provide global routing scope subject to assigned prefixes and filters. It leaves outcome (2) unfulfilled.

Question 977

A branch design for Lighthouse Medical has two requirements: (1) install a network static route to 10.40.8.0/23, and (2) provide a static backup only if an OSPF route to the same prefix disappears. Which option addresses both requirements?

  1. First, use ip route 198.51.100.77 255.255.255.255 with a valid next hop; then give the backup static route AD higher than OSPF's 110.
  2. First, use ip route 10.40.8.0 255.255.254.0 with the valid next hop; then give the backup static route AD higher than OSPF's 110.
  3. First, use ip route 10.40.8.0 255.255.254.0 with the valid next hop; then compare administrative distances of static 1 and OSPF 110.
  4. First, distinguish connected C entries from O or S routes; then recognize a locally originated /32 host route.

Explanation

Correct Answer

B:

Both outcomes are covered: (1) A /23 mask covers the two adjacent /24s 10.40.8.0 and 10.40.9.0. (2) A floating static route loses normally but is installed when the preferred OSPF route is withdrawn. Neither action is a substitute for the other.

Incorrect Answers

A:

The second step covers (2), but the first addresses configure a static host route to one IPv4 server at 198.51.100.77. A /32 host route matches exactly one IPv4 destination. It leaves outcome (1) unfulfilled.

C:

The first step covers (1), but the second addresses choose a static route over an OSPF route to the exact same prefix when both are valid. Administrative distance selects the preferred source of identical-prefix routes before comparing metrics. It leaves outcome (2) unfulfilled.

D:

Neither step is the requested pair: Distinguish connected C entries from O or S routes is for interpret a directly connected interface network versus remote learned network, and Recognize a locally originated /32 host route is for interpret an L entry for a router's own IPv4 interface address. Directly connected prefixes have an attached interface, while remote routes require a next hop or recursion. The proposed plan misses the two stated outcomes.

Question 978

A branch design for North Quay Finance has two requirements: (1) explain why two OSPF routers remain stuck in EXSTART, and (2) route an unknown destination when no more-specific route is present. Which proposed plan satisfies both outcomes?

  1. First, investigate interface MTU mismatch and adjacency parameters; then use an installed 0.0.0.0/0 default route.
  2. First, configure the matching OSPF area number on their shared link; then set its OSPF interface priority to 0.
  3. First, configure the target prefix with the valid outgoing point-to-point interface; then use an installed 0.0.0.0/0 default route.
  4. First, investigate interface MTU mismatch and adjacency parameters; then use OSPF interface path cost for SPF path choice and AD for source preference.

Explanation

Correct Answer

A:

Both outcomes are covered: (1) OSPF database description negotiation can fail when peers disagree on MTU. (2) The default matches any IPv4 destination not better matched by another prefix. Neither action is a substitute for the other.

Incorrect Answers

B:

Neither step is the requested pair: Configure the matching OSPF area number on their shared link is for make two routers with mismatched OSPF area IDs become neighbors, and Set its OSPF interface priority to 0 is for prevent one router from becoming DR on a broadcast segment. OSPF neighbors must agree on the area for an eligible adjacency. The proposed plan misses the two stated outcomes.

C:

The second step covers (2), but the first addresses install a route toward an adjacent directly connected point-to-point interface. On a point-to-point interface, the route can use the egress interface without Ethernet ARP for each host. It leaves outcome (1) unfulfilled.

D:

The first step covers (1), but the second addresses avoid confusing OSPF routing cost with administrative distance. OSPF metric selects routes within OSPF, while AD selects between separate routing sources. It leaves outcome (2) unfulfilled.

Question 979

A change request at Lighthouse Medical as part of a security hardening project requires the team to keep an aggregated trunk's VLAN policy consistent. Which response best meets this requirement?

  1. Configure trunk and allowed VLANs on the port-channel interface
  2. Choose the port with the lowest root-path cost after tie breakers
  3. Set the opposite peer to LACP active
  4. Use a supported monitor-mode AP

Explanation

Correct Answer

A:

The logical port-channel is the switching interface whose member ports must have compatible settings. This is the control that implements the specified requirement.

Incorrect Answers

B:

Each non-root switch elects one best path toward the root bridge for a spanning-tree instance. That is not sufficient here: The logical port-channel is the switching interface whose member ports must have compatible settings.

C:

Passive/ passive cannot initiate an LACP exchange, while an active side can negotiate with passive. That is not sufficient here: The logical port-channel is the switching interface whose member ports must have compatible settings.

D:

A monitor-mode radio can scan spectrum and clients for management/security without providing ordinary access. That is not sufficient here: The logical port-channel is the switching interface whose member ports must have compatible settings.

Question 980

Four OSPF routers become eligible simultaneously on an Ethernet broadcast segment, with no existing DR/BDR: R1 (priority 50, router ID 10.255.0.177); R2 (priority 6, router ID 10.255.0.253); R3 (priority 7, router ID 10.255.0.153); R4 (priority 100, router ID 10.255.0.24). Which router wins designated router election?

  1. R4 (priority 100, router ID 10.255.0.24)
  2. R1 (priority 50, router ID 10.255.0.177)
  3. R2 (priority 6, router ID 10.255.0.253)
  4. R3 (priority 7, router ID 10.255.0.153)

Explanation

Correct Answer

A:

OSPF broadcast DR election considers eligible nonzero interface priority first, with router ID breaking ties. R4 has the highest eligible priority 100.

Incorrect Answers

B:

This router has zero priority or an inferior priority to the winner and cannot be the elected DR here.

C:

That explanation does not distinguish this option. “R2 (priority 6, router ID 10.255.0.253)” is an alternative action, but it does not by itself establish the outcome required in this case.

D:

That explanation does not distinguish this option. “R3 (priority 7, router ID 10.255.0.153)” is an alternative action, but it does not by itself establish the outcome required in this case.
