Question 100
At the Pinecrest airport network, an administrator edits a switch individually and a later Central group synchronization overwrites the local setting. Which setting or practice should be reviewed in future?
Explanation
Correct Answer
The team should audit configuration ownership before local switch changes. That recurring practice targets the same weakness, namely that group managed configurations can supersede direct local changes when ownership is not coordinated. This result addresses the stated challenge at the Pinecrest airport network.
Incorrect Answers
uncontrolled mixed software releases can create inconsistent features and security exposure; a passing acceptance check would show that sample devices show the approved firmware version after a phased compliant upgrade. The offered alternative applies that mechanism: Review firmware exceptions and rollout failures on a defined schedule. The reported facts point to a different controlling condition: group managed configurations can supersede direct local changes when ownership is not coordinated. The alternative does not directly settle the required recurrence control.
Review power utilization and supply redundancy as endpoints grow. Its technical scope is explained by: total chassis PoE consumption can exceed available power when endpoints start together. In this question, the decisive issue is: group managed configurations can supersede direct local changes when ownership is not coordinated. That is why the offered option is not the most direct recurrence control.
Review trunk allowed VLAN lists during service rollout. This option is based on the following distinct technical behavior: an established Ethernet link does not imply all tagged VLANs are carried across it, the required evidence must show that the controlled test host reaches its permitted peer through the end-to-end VLAN path. The present question instead depends on this mechanism: group managed configurations can supersede direct local changes when ownership is not coordinated. That difference matters for the requested recurrence control.
