QuestionAnswer
A Layer 2 switch is used to switch incoming frames from a 1000BASE-T port to a port connected to a 100BaseT network. Which method of memory buffering would work best for this task? shared memory buffering
A computer can access devices on the same network but cannot access devices on other networks. What is the probable cause of this problem? The computer has an invalid default gateway address.
How do hosts ensure that their packets are directed to the correct network destination? They have to keep their own local routing table that contains a route to the loopback interface, a local network route, and a remote default route
What action will occur if a switch receives a frame and does have the source MAC address in the MAC table? The switch refreshes the timer on that entry
What are two examples of the cut through switching method? (Choose two.) fast-forward switching fragment-free switching
What are two services provided by the OSI network layer? routing packets toward the destination encapsulating PDUs from the transport layer
What information does the loopback test provide? The TCP/IP stack on the device is working correctly.
What is a basic characteristic of the IP protocol? connectionless
A network technician issues the arp -d * command on a PC after the router that is connected to the LAN is reconfigured. What is the result after this command is issued? The ARP cache is cleared.
A new network administrator has been asked to enter a banner message on a Cisco device. What is the fastest way a network administrator could test whether the banner is properly configured? Exit privileged EXEC mode and press Enter.
A router boots and enters setup mode. What is the reason for this? The configuration file is missing from NVRAM
The global configuration command ip default-gateway 172.16.100.1 is applied to a switch. What is the effect of this command? The switch can be remotely managed from a host on another network.
Under which two circumstances will a switch flood a frame out of every port except the port that the frame was received on? The frame has the broadcast address as the destination address. The destination address is unknown to the switch.
What are two functions of NVRAM to retain contents when power is removed to store the startup configuration file
What happens when the transport input ssh command is entered on the switch vty lines? Communication between the switch and remote users is encrypted.
What important information is examined in the Ethernet frame header by a Layer 2 device in order to forward the data onward? destination MAC address
What is the aim of an ARP spoofing attack? to associate IP addresses to the wrong MAC address
What property of ARP causes cached IP-to-MAC mappings to remain in memory longer? Entries in an ARP table are timestamped and are purged after the timeout expires.
What property of ARP allows MAC addresses of frequently used servers to be fixed in the ARP table? A static IP-to-MAC address entry can be entered manually into an ARP table.
What property of ARP allows hosts on a LAN to send traffic to remote networks? Local hosts learn the MAC address of the default gateway
