Which two characteristics describe the access layer of the hierarchical network design model? (Choose two.)
A. layer 3 support
B. port security
C. redundant components
D. VLANs
E. PoE
Correct Answer: BE
Section: 2.0 LAN Switching Fundamental
Explanation
Explanation/Reference:
Access: Provides a connection point (access) for end-user devices. Does not forward frames between two
other access switches under normal circumstances.
Since this is where the hosts are connected, this is where you would have port security
Inline Power- POE for IP Telephony and WAP- This is generally unique to Access level.
Port Security- Preventing unauthorized access. Since this is the first level where users can connect, you need
security here
Distribution: Provides an aggregation point for access switches, forwarding frames between switches, but not
connecting directly to end-user devices.
Core: Aggregates distribution switches in very large campus LANs, providing very high forwarding rates.
VLANS may exist in the distribution as well, and in fact often do, since that is where we would see layer 3
switching
redundnacies will also be in distribution and access

C. a hub
D. a Layer 3 switch
E. an access point
Correct Answer: BD
Section: 2.0 LAN Switching Fundamental
Explanation
Explanation/Reference:
Layer 3 devices don't forward broadcasts, so if you put a router or a Layer 3 switch onto a network, it creates
additional broadcast domains, which will limit broadcast storms from spreading.
QUESTION 19
A switch receives a frame on one of its ports. There is no entry in the MAC address table for the destination
MAC address. What will the switch do with the frame?
Correct Answer: B
Section: 2.0 LAN Switching Fundamental
Explanation
Explanation/Reference:
Step 1. Switches forward frames based on the destination address:
A. If the destination address is a broadcast, multicast, or unknown destination unicast (a unicast not listed in the
MAC table), the switch floods the frame.
B. If the destination address is a known unicast address (a unicast address found in the MAC table):
i. If the outgoing interface listed in the MAC address table is different from the interface in which the frame was
received, the switch forwards the frame out the outgoing interface.
ii. If the outgoing interface is the same as the interface in which the frame was received, the switch filters the
frame, meaning that the switch simply ignores the frame and does not forward it.
Step 2. Switches use the following logic to learn MAC address table entries:
A. For each received frame, examine the source MAC address and note the interface from which the frame
was received.
B. If it is not already in the table, add the MAC address and interface it was learned on, setting the inactivity
timer to 0.
C. If it is already in the table, reset the inactivity timer for the entry to 0.
Step 3. Switches use STP to prevent loops by causing some interfaces to block, meaning that they do not send
or receive frames.
QUESTION 20
Which address type does a switch use to make selective forwarding decisions?
A. source IP address
B. destination IP address
C. source and destination IP address
D. source MAC address
E. destination MAC address
Correct Answer: E
Section: 2.0 LAN Switching Fundamental
Explanation
Explanation/Reference:
Step 1. Switches forward frames based on the destination address:
A. If the destination address is a broadcast, multicast, or unknown destination unicast (a unicast not listed in the
MAC table), the switch floods the frame.
B. If the destination address is a known unicast address (a unicast address found in the MAC table):
i. If the outgoing interface listed in the MAC address table is different from the interface in which the frame was
received, the switch forwards the frame out the outgoing interface.
ii. If the outgoing interface is the same as the interface in which the frame was received, the switch filters the
frame, meaning that the switch simply ignores the frame and does not forward it.
Step 2. Switches use the following logic to learn MAC address table entries:
A. For each received frame, examine the source MAC address and note the interface from which the frame
was received.
B. If it is not already in the table, add the MAC address and interface it was learned on, setting the inactivity
timer to 0.
C. If it is already in the table, reset the inactivity timer for the entry to 0.
Step 3. Switches use STP to prevent loops by causing some interfaces to block, meaning that they do not send
or receive frames.
QUESTION 21
Refer to the exhibit. The MAC address table is shown in its entirety. The Ethernet frame that is shown arrives at
the switch. What two operations will the switch perform when it receives this frame? (Choose two.)
A. The switch will not forward a frame with this destination MAC address.
B. The MAC address of 0000.00aa.aaaa will be added to the MAC Address Table.
C. The MAC address of ffff.ffff.ffff will be added to the MAC address table.
D. The frame will be forwarded out all active switch ports except for port fa0/0.
E. The frame will be forwarded out fa0/0 and fa0/1 only.
F. The frame will be forwarded out all the ports on the switch.
Correct Answer: BD
Section: 2.0 LAN Switching Fundamental
Explanation
Explanation/Reference:
Since 0000.00aa.aaaa is not in the table, it will be added to the table
Since ffff.ffff.ffff is a broadcast, the frame should be sent out all ports in the same VLAN except the one it came
in on.
The frame will be forwarded out all active switch ports except for port fa0/0 is the best answer here.
QUESTION 22

If a host experiences intermittent issues that relate to congestion within a network while remaining connected,
what could cause congestion on this LAN?
A. half-duplex operation
B. broadcast storms
C. network segmentation
D. multicasting
Correct Answer: B
Section: 2.0 LAN Switching Fundamental
Explanation
Explanation/Reference:
A broadcast storm can cause congestion within a network.
To provide for fault tolerance, many networks implement redundant paths between devices using multiple
switches. However, providing redundant paths between segments causes packets to be passed between the
redundant paths endlessly. This condition is known as a bridging loop.
(Note: the terms bridge, switch are used interchangeably when discussing STP)
To prevent bridging loops, the IEEE 802.1d committee defined a standard called the spanning tree algorithm
(STA), or spanning tree protocol (STP). Spanning-Tree Protocol is a link management protocol that provides
path redundancy while preventing undesirable loops in the network. For an Ethernet network to function
properly, only one active path can exist between two stations.
Let’s see a situation when there is no loop-avoidance process in operation. Suppose you have two switches
connected with redundant links. One switch connected to PC A and the other switch connected to PC B.
Now PC A wants to talk to PC B. It then sends a broadcast, say an Address Resolution Protocol (ARP) to find
out where the location of PC B, the green arrow shows a broadcast frame sent by PC A.
When the switch A receives a broadcast frame, it forwards that frame to all ports except the port where it
receives the request -> SwA forwards that ARP frame out of fa0/0 and fa0/1 ports.

B. A switch tracks MAC addresses of directly-connected devices.
C. A switch operates at a lower, more efficient layer of the OSI model.
D. A switch decreases the number of broadcast domains.
E. A switch decreases the number of collision domains.
Correct Answer: B
Section: 1.0 Network Fundamentals
Explanation
Explanation/Reference:
Some of the features and functions of a switch include:
A switch is essentially a fast, multi-port bridge, which can contain dozens of ports. Rather than creating two
collision domains, each port creates its own collision domain. In a network of twenty nodes, twenty collision
domains exist if each node is plugged into its own switch port.
If an uplink port is included, one switch creates twenty-one single-node collision domains. A switch dynamically
builds and maintains a Content-Addressable Memory (CAM) table, holding all of the necessary MAC
information for each port.
For a detailed description of how switches operate, and their key differences to hubs, see the reference link
below.

D. The frame will be forwarded out fa0/1, fa0/2, and fa0/3.
E. The frame will be forwarded out all the active ports.
Correct Answer: AD
Section: 2.0 LAN Switching Fundamental
Explanation
Explanation/Reference:
Since 0000.00aa.aaaa is not in the table, it will be added to the table
Since 000.00dd.dddd is not in the table, the frame should be sent out all ports in the same VLAN except the
one it came in on.
The frame will be forwarded out fa0/1, fa0/2, and fa0/3. is the best answer here.

Usage Guidelines
Do not expect case to be preserved. Uppercase and lowercase characters look the same to many internet
software applications. It may seem appropriate to capitalize a name the same way you might do in English, but
conventions dictate that computer names appear all lowercase. For more information, refer to RFC 1178,
Choosing a Name for Your Computer .
The name must also follow the rules for ARPANET hostnames. They must start with a letter, end with a letter or
digit, and have as interior characters only letters, digits, and hyphens. Names must be 63 characters or fewer.
Creating an all numeric hostname is not recommended but the name will be accepted after an error is returned.
Router(config)#hostname 123
% Hostname contains one or more illegal characters.
123(config)#
A hostname of less than 10 characters is recommended. For more information, refer to RFC 1035, Domain
Names--Implementation and Specification .

What does a router do with a packet received from one network and destined for another network? The router
performs the following three major steps:
Step 1. De-encapsulates the Layer 3 packet by removing the Layer 2 frame header and trailer.
Step 2. Examines the destination IP address of the IP packet to find the best path in the routing table.
Step 3. If the router finds a path to the destination, it encapsulates the Layer 3 packet into a new Layer 2 frame
and forwards the frame out the exit interface.

Explanation
Explanation/Reference:
r1(config)#int f0/0
r1(config-if)# ip nat inside
r1(config-if)# int s0/0

All three NAT types require the inside interface and outside interface to be deifned.
Not defined globally, it is done on the interface
It does NOT identify the public address. That is done by the ip nat inside source ??? rule
It identifies the location of source addresses for outgoing packets to be translated using access lists or route
maps. is ALMOST right. But not quite.
QUESTION 45
How does a switch differ from a hub?
A. A switch does not induce any latency into the frame transfer time.
B. A switch tracks MAC addresses of directly -connected devices.
C. A switch operates at a lower, more efficient layer of the OSI model.
D. A switch decreases the number of broadcast domains.
E. A switch decreases the number of collision domains.
Correct Answer: B
Section: 1.0 Network Fundamentals
Explanation
Explanation/Reference:
Explanation:
Some of the features and functions of a switch include:
A switch is essentially a fast, multi -port bridge, which can contain dozens of ports. Rather than creating two
collision domains, each port creates its own collision domain. In a network of twenty nodes, twenty collision
domains exist if each node is plugged into its own switch port. If an uplink port is included, one switch creates
twenty-one single -node collision domains. A switch dynamically builds and maintains a Content -Addressable
Memory (CAM) table, holding all of the necessary MAC information for each port.

QUESTION 47
How does TCP differ from UDP? (Choose two.)
Correct Answer: BD
Section: 1.0 Network Fundamentals
Explanation
Explanation/Reference:
Explanation:
Because TCP is a connection -oriented protocol responsible for ensuring the transfer of a datagram from the
source to destination machine (end -to -end communications), TCP must receive communications messages
from the destination machine to acknowledge receipt of the datagram. The term virtual circuit is usually used to
refer to the handshaking that goes on between the two end machines, most of which are simple
acknowledgment messages (either confirmation of receipt or a failure code) and datagram sequence numbers.
Rather than impose a state within the network to support the connection, TCP uses synchronized state between
the two endpoints. This synchronized state is set up as part of an initial connection process, so TCP can be
regarded as a connection -oriented protocol. Much of the protocol design is intended to ensure that each local
state transition is communicatedto, and acknowledged by, the remote party.

Explanation
Explanation/Reference:
Explanation:
Here we see that the host is able to ping its own loopback IP address of 127.0.0.1 and it's own IP address of
10.0.0.35, so we know that the NIC is functioning and that the host's TCP/IP stack is OK.
However, it is not able to ping the IP address of its local default gateway, so we know that there is a local
cabling problem between the switch and the router.

QUESTION 7
Which of the following statements are TRUE regarding Cisco access lists? (Choose two.)
Correct Answer: AC
Section: 4.0 Infrastructure Services
Explanation
Explanation/Reference:
Explanation:
In an inbound access list, packets are filtered as they enter an interface. Extended access lists are used to filter
protocol specific packets. Access lists can be used in a variety of situations when the router needs to be given
guidelines for decision-making. These situations include:
There are two types of access lists, standard and extended. Standard access lists are applied as close to the
destination as possible (outbound), and can only base their filtering criteria on the source IP address. The
number used while creating an access list specifies the type of access list created. The range used for standard
access lists is 1 to 99 and 1300 to 1999. Extended access lists are applied as close to the source as possible
(inbound), and can base their filtering criteria on the source or destination IP address, or on the specific
protocol being used. The range used for extended access lists is 100 to 199 and 2000 to 2699.
The option stating that in an inbound access list, packets are filtered before they exit an interface is incorrect.
Packets are filtered as they exit an interface when using an outbound access list.
The option stating that a deny statement must be specified at the end of each access list in order to filter
unwanted traffic is incorrect. There is an implicit deny at the bottom of every access list.
When a line is added to an existing access list, it is not inserted at the beginning of the access list. It is inserted
at the end. This should be taken into consideration. For example, given the following access list, executing the
command access-list 110 deny tcp 192.168.5.0 0.0.0.255 any eq www would have NO effect on the packets
being filtered because it would be inserted at the end of the list, AFTER the line that allows all traffic.

What is the purpose of flow control?
Correct Answer: C
Section: 2.0 LAN Switching Fundamental
Explanation
Explanation/Reference:
Flow Control
Reference:
http://whatis.techtarget.com/definition/flow-control
Explanation:
Flow control is the management of data flow between computers or devices or between nodes in a network so
that the data can be handled at an efficient pace. Too much data arriving before a device can handle it causes
data overflow, meaning the data is either lost or must be retransmitted. For serial data transmission locally or in
a network, the Xon/Xoff protocol can be used. For modem connections, either Xon/Xoff or CTS/RTS (Clear to
Send/Ready to Send) commands can be used to control data flow.
In a network, flow control can also be applied by refusing additional device connections until the flow of traffic
has subsided.
QUESTION 15
Which statement about IPv6 is true?
Correct Answer: D
Section: IP Addressing
Explanation
Explanation/Reference:
IPv6 Address Types
Reference:
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc757359(v=ws.10).aspx
Explanation:
IPv6 has three types of addresses, which can be categorized by type and scope:
Unicast addresses. A packet is delivered to one interface.- Lots of examples
Link-local. The scope is the local link (nodes on the same subnet). FE80
Global. The scope is global (IPv6 Internet addresses). 2000 or 3000
In addition, IPv6 has special addresses such as the loopback address. The scope of a special address
depends on the type of special address.
Much of the IPv6 address space is unassigned.
QUESTION 16
Some routers have been configured with default routes. What are some of the advantages of using default
routes? (Choose two)
Correct Answer: BD
Section: 3.0 Routing Fundamentals
Explanation
Explanation/Reference:
Default Routes are usually used on stub networks where there is only a single link to the rest of the WAN. In
this case, the routing table only has to have a single entry.
In addition, since they provide a "match" to any packet destination address, they allow connectivity to remote
networks that haven't been entered or learned in the routing table (assuming the rest of the network is properly
configured).

A receiving host has failed to receive all of the segments that it should acknowledge. What can the host do to
improve the reliability of this communication session?
Correct Answer: A
Section: 1.0 Network Fundamentals
Explanation
Explanation/Reference:
This question is about how TCP operates.
For TCP communications, if not all segments are received, a receiving host would acknowledge the next
segment/byte that they expect to receive.
By decreasing the window size, less bytes/segments would be sent between acknowledgements. This should
help to reduce the amount of "missed" segments/
QUESTION 20
A network administrator is connecting PC hosts A and B directly through their Ethernet interfaces as shown in
the graphic. Ping attempts between the hosts are unsuccessful. What can be done to provide connectivity
between the hosts? (choose two.)
Correct Answer: AF
Section: 1.0 Network Fundamentals
Explanation
Explanation/Reference:
Since the PCs are directly conncted, a crossover cable should be used (most modern equipment will
electronically detect the mismatch and "autocross", but this is still the correct answer).
In addition, the subnet mask must be set so that each of these PCs thinks it is on the same network. using
255.255.255.0 will achieve this result.

QUESTION 23
Why was this message received?
Correct Answer: A
Section: 5.0 Infrastructure Maintenance
Explanation
Explanation/Reference:
The output tells us that this is telnet, so it is related to the VTY password.
The default setting for VTY line on routers is for the login command to be entered, but no password being set.
This effectively stops VTY access.
QUESTION 24
After configuring two interfaces on the HQ router, the network administrator notices an error message. What
must be done to fix this error?
Correct Answer: D
Section: IP Addressing
Explanation
Explanation/Reference:
The default behavior of a router expects different interfaces to be on different networks. If the IP address/
subnet mask combinations on two network interfaces overlap, the router will give you an error.
In this example, changing the subnet mask on interface fastethernet will fix the overlap problem.
QUESTION 25
What does the "Inside Global" address represent in the configuration of NAT?
Correct Answer: D
Section: 4.0 Infrastructure Services
Explanation
Explanation/Reference:
When configuring NAT, the address we discuss are:
Inside Local - Usually the reserved/Private IP address (RFC1918) used on the LAN interface
Inside Global- The public IP that is used on the WAN interface.
Outside Local-Usually the same as Outside Global. represents the address of the outside host as it is referred
to inside out network.
Outside Global- The IP address of the publicly available server-represents an outside host to the outside
network
Outside local address—The IP address of an outside host as it appears to the inside network. Not necessarily
a legitimate address, it is allocated from an address space routable on the inside.
Outside global address—The IP address assigned to a host on the outside network by the host owner. The
address is allocated from a globally routable address or network space.
QUESTION 26
Two routers named Atlanta and Brevard are connected by their serial interfaces as shown in the exhibit, but
there is no data connectivity between them. The Atlanta router is known to have a correct configuration. Given
the partial configurations shown in the exhibit, what is the problem on the Brevard router that is causing the lack
of connectivity?
Correct Answer: B
Section: IP Addressing
Explanation
Explanation/Reference:
Routers connected to each other need to be on the same IP network in order to communicate via ping. In this
example:
Atlanta is on the 192.168.10.0 network.
Brevard is on the 192.168.11.0 network.
Changing the IP addresses so they are the same network would fix this problem. Interestingly, CDP would work
fine in this example, since it operates at layer 2.
QUESTION 27
From which of the following attacks can Message Authentication Code (MAC) shield your network?
A. DoS
B. DDoS
C. spoofing
D. SYN floods
Correct Answer: C
Section: 5.0 Infrastructure Maintenance
Explanation
Explanation/Reference:
Explanation:
Message Authentication Code (MAC) can shield your network from spoofing attacks. Spoofing, also known as
masquerading, is a popular trick in which an attacker intercepts a network packet, replaces the source address
of the packets header with the address of the authorized host, and reinserts fake information which is sent to
the receiver. This type of attack involves modifying packet contents. MAC can prevent this type of attack and
ensure data integrity by ensuring that no data has changed. MAC also protects against frequency analysis,
sequence manipulation, and ciphertex - t-only attacks.
MAC is a secure message digest that requires a secret key shared by the sender and receiver, making it
impossible for sniffers to change both the data and the MAC as the receiver can detect the changes. A denial -
of -service (DoS) attack floods the target system with unwanted requests, causing the loss of service to users.
One form of this attack generates a flood of packets requesting a TCP connection with the target, tying up all
resources and making the target unable to service other requests. MAC does not prevent DoS attacks. Stateful
packet filtering is the most common defense against a DoS attack.
A Distributed Denial of Service attack (DDoS) occurs when multiple systems are used to flood the network and
tax the resources of the target system. Various intrusion detection systems, utilizing stateful packet filtering, can
protect against DDoS attacks.
In a SYN flood attack, the attacker floods the target with spoofed IP packets and causes it to either freeze or
crash. A SYN flood attack is a type of denial of service attack that explogts the buffers of a device that accept
incoming connections and therefore cannot be prevented by MAC. Common defenses against a SYN flood
attack include filtering, reducing the SYN-RECEIVED timer, and implementing SYN cache or SYN cookies.

QUESTION 32
What disables CEF?
A. Fast Switching
B. Access lists
C. Routing Protocols
D. Monkeys
Correct Answer: A
Section: 3.0 Routing Fundamentals
Explanation
Explanation/Reference:
A cisco router has 3 main methods for making routing decisions:
Process Switching- Each packet is checked against the routing table
Fast Switching-Since packets tend to go in "bursts" to the same place, the first packet in a flow is process
switched. Since the destination and exit interface are unlikely to change, the forwarding details are "cached"
and the rest of the packets use this cached information for forwarding. This is also called route one, switch the
rest.
Cisco Express Forwarding- The details in the routing table, and adjacency table (details about neighbors/next
hops) are used to build a route matching table that is stored in TCAM (ternary computer adressable memory).
This allows for routing at near wire speed. You can find the command ip cef in most configurations.

Which information is used to install the best route to a destination in IP routing table ?
Correct Answer: B
Section: 3.0 Routing Fundamentals
Explanation
Explanation/Reference:
If the same destination network is learned via two different routing protocols, the protocol with the lowest AD
goes in the routing table.
Within the same protocol (same AD), and two different routes are learnd, the route with the lowest metric goes
in the table.
If there are multiple routes that would match a packet, the packet will be routed out the path based on the
match with the longest prefix.

http://www.cisco.com/en/US/tech/tk389/tk689/technologies_tech_note09186a0080094c52.shtml
Explanation:
Introduction
VLAN Trunk Protocol (VTP) reduces administration in a switched network. When you configure a new VLAN on
one VTP server, the VLAN is distributed through all switches in the domain. This reduces the need to configure
the same VLAN everywhere. VTP is a Cisco-proprietary protocol that is available on most of the Cisco Catalyst
series products.
