A network administrator is provisioning interface GigabitEthernet0/1 on a Cisco Catalyst switch to connect a newly deployed workstation. The workstation must belong to VLAN 15. Which two configuration steps are required under the interface configuration mode to correctly establish this interface as a static access port in VLAN 15? (Select two.)

Geçerli olan tümünü seçin

Cevabı ve açıklamayı göster

Cevap: Execute the command switchport mode access to statically set the interface to access mode.; Execute the command switchport access vlan 15 to assign the interface to VLAN 15.

Cevap

Configuring a static access port in Cisco IOS requires explicitly defining the interface mode using switchport mode access and specifying the VLAN membership using switchport access vlan 15 under interface configuration mode.
Configuring an end-user host connection on a Cisco switch requires establishing static access mode using 'switchport mode access' and assigning the specific VLAN membership using 'switchport access vlan 15'. Together, these two commands ensure untagged traffic from the connected host is correctly mapped into VLAN 15.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Enter interface configuration mode for GigabitEthernet0/1.
Access the target interface CLI prompt: Switch(config-if)#
Configuration parameters for access port operation must be applied directly to the physical interface.
2
Set the administrative operational mode to access.
Run switchport mode access.
Ensures the switchport operates strictly as an access port and prevents DTP from negotiating a trunk link.
3
Assign the interface to the target VLAN.
Run switchport access vlan 15.
Places untagged host frames into broadcast domain VLAN 15.

Cevap: 10.88.160.110.88.160.1; 10.88.175.25010.88.175.250

Cevap

The IPv4 addresses 10.88.160.110.88.160.1 and 10.88.175.25010.88.175.250 are valid usable host addresses within the 10.88.160.0/2010.88.160.0/20 subnet.
For the subnet 10.88.160.0/2010.88.160.0/20, the usable host address range is 10.88.160.110.88.160.1 through 10.88.175.25410.88.175.254. The IPv4 addresses 10.88.160.110.88.160.1 and 10.88.175.25010.88.175.250 fall directly within this valid host range.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Determine the subnet mask and block size for the /20 prefix.
A /20 prefix translates to the dotted-decimal subnet mask 255.255.240.0255.255.240.0. In the third octet, the block size is calculated as 256240=16256 - 240 = 16.
Calculating the block size defines the boundary of consecutive subnets.
2
Calculate the network address, broadcast address, and host range for 10.88.160.0/2010.88.160.0/20.
The subnet starts at Network ID 10.88.160.010.88.160.0. The third octet ranges from 160 up to 160+161=175160 + 16 - 1 = 175. The Broadcast address is 10.88.175.25510.88.175.255. The usable host range spans from 10.88.160.110.88.160.1 through 10.88.175.25410.88.175.254.
Usable host addresses consist of all IP addresses strictly between the Network ID and Broadcast address.
3
Evaluate the given choices against the calculated host range.
The addresses 10.88.160.110.88.160.1 and 10.88.175.25010.88.175.250 lie within 10.88.160.110.88.175.25410.88.160.1 - 10.88.175.254. The address 10.88.175.25510.88.175.255 is the broadcast address, while 10.88.176.110.88.176.1 belongs to the next network segment (10.88.176.0/2010.88.176.0/20).
Only addresses within the usable range can be assigned to host devices.

An enterprise deploys a Cisco Lightweight Access Point (LAP) in FlexConnect mode at a remote branch location connected via WAN to a centralized Wireless LAN Controller (WLC). The branch WLAN is configured for local switching and local authentication. If the WAN link fails and the CAPWAP connection to the controller is disconnected, which behavior will the access point exhibit for clients on this WLAN?

Cevabı ve açıklamayı göster

Cevap: The access point operates in standalone mode, continuing to forward data traffic locally and processing new client authentication requests locally.

Cevap

The access point operates in standalone mode, continuing to forward data traffic locally and processing new client authentication requests locally.
In Cisco wireless architectures, a FlexConnect AP configured for local switching and local authentication transitions into standalone mode when it loses its CAPWAP control connection to the WLC. In standalone mode, the AP continues to switch client traffic locally at the branch switch and can process new authentication requests locally without WLC intervention.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Identify the AP operating mode and failure scenario.
The AP is in FlexConnect mode and loses its CAPWAP control tunnel to the centralized WLC due to a WAN outage.
FlexConnect mode is designed for branch deployments to handle WAN loss gracefully.
2
Evaluate the traffic switching configuration.
The WLAN is configured for local switching, meaning user data packets are bridged directly onto the local trunk/VLAN rather than encapsulated in CAPWAP to the WLC.
Local switching allows data plane forwarding to function independently of the CAPWAP data tunnel.
3
Evaluate the authentication configuration during standalone mode.
Because local authentication is configured, the FlexConnect AP acts as a local authenticator when disconnected from the controller.
Local authentication ensures both existing client sessions and new client join requests continue operating normally during a WAN link disruption.

Gateway of last resort is 192.168.1.1 to network 0.0.0.0

O 10.45.12.0/25 [110/20] via 192.168.12.2, GigabitEthernet0/0/1
D 10.45.12.64/26 [90/307200] via 192.168.14.2, GigabitEthernet0/0/2
S 10.45.12.80/28 [1/0] via 192.168.16.2, GigabitEthernet0/0/3
O 10.45.12.80/29 [110/50] via 192.168.18.2, GigabitEthernet0/0/4

Which next-hop IP address and exit interface will the router select to forward this packet?

Cevabı ve açıklamayı göster

Cevap: 192.168.18.2 via GigabitEthernet0/0/4 because 10.45.12.80/29 is the longest matching prefix for the destination IP address.

Cevap

The router forwards the packet to next-hop IP 192.168.18.2 via exit interface GigabitEthernet0/0/4 based on the Longest Prefix Match rule.
When a router receives a packet, it compares the destination IP address (10.45.12.85) against all entries in the routing table. It selects the route with the most specific match (the longest subnet mask prefix length). In this scenario, 10.45.12.80/29 matches 10.45.12.85 (range 10.45.12.80–10.45.12.87) with a 29-bit prefix length, which is longer than /28, /26, /25, or /0. Consequently, the router routes traffic out GigabitEthernet0/0/4 to 192.168.18.2. Administrative distance is ignored because the matching routes do not have identical prefix lengths.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Identify all candidate routes matching destination IP 10.45.12.85
Candidate routes: 10.45.12.0/25 (range .0-.127), 10.45.12.64/26 (range .64-.127), 10.45.12.80/28 (range .80-.95), 10.45.12.80/29 (range .80-.87), and default route 0.0.0.0/0.
The router compares the destination IP address against all routing table prefix entries.
2
Apply the Longest Prefix Match rule to determine the winning route
The route 10.45.12.80/29 has the longest prefix mask (/29 = 29 matching bits).
Prefix length (/29 > /28 > /26 > /25 > /0) takes precedence over administrative distance and metric during forwarding lookup.
3
Extract the next-hop IP and exit interface associated with the longest matching route
Next-hop: 192.168.18.2, Exit Interface: GigabitEthernet0/0/4.
The router uses the interface and gateway specified by the selected longest matching routing table entry.

Cevap

ipv6 route 2001:db8:acad:1::/64 GigabitEthernet0/1 fe80::1
When specifying an IPv6 link-local address as the next-hop, Cisco IOS requires a fully specified static route where both the local outbound interface and the neighbor's link-local IPv6 address are declared.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Identify the target network prefix and length.
Destination network prefix is 2001:db8:acad:1::/64.
Static routing in IPv6 requires specifying the target prefix alongside its prefix length.
2
Determine the interface and next-hop address requirement for link-local routing.
Exit interface is GigabitEthernet0/1 and link-local next-hop address is fe80::1.
Because link-local addresses (fe80::/10) are only unique to a local link, Cisco IOS requires specifying the exit interface along with the link-local next-hop address to form a fully specified static route.
3
Assemble the complete global configuration mode command syntax.
ipv6 route 2001:db8:acad:1::/64 GigabitEthernet0/1 fe80::1

Soru 1406Soru

An interface on a Cisco IOS router is dynamically generating its IPv6 address using the EUI-64 standard. Output from the command `show ipv6 interface GigabitEthernet0/0` reveals that the link-local address assigned to the interface is `fe80::1a2b:3cff:fe4d:5e6f`. Based on this address, what is the burned-in MAC address of the Ethernet interface?

Cevabı ve açıklamayı göster

Cevap: 182b.3c4d.5e6f

Cevap

The MAC address of the interface is 182b.3c4d.5e6f.
To reverse the EUI-64 generation process and recover the original 48-bit MAC address from the interface ID `1a2b:3cff:fe4d:5e6f`: first, remove the inserted `FFFE` bytes from the midpoint to get `1a2b:3c4d:5e6f`. Next, convert the first byte (`1A` hex) to binary (`0001 1010`) and flip the 7th bit (the Universal/Local bit), resulting in `0001 1000` (`18` hex). Assembling the modified octets gives the hardware MAC address `182b.3c4d.5e6f`.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Extract the 64-bit Interface Identifier from the IPv6 address.
The Interface ID portion of `fe80::1a2b:3cff:fe4d:5e6f` is `1a2b:3cff:fe4d:5e6f`.
In IPv6 link-local addresses, the last 64 bits represent the Interface Identifier.
2
Remove the inserted 16-bit hex sequence `ff:fe` (`FFFE`) from the middle of the Interface ID.
Removing `ff:fe` from `1a:2b:3c:ff:fe:4d:5e:6f` yields 6 bytes: `1a:2b:3c:4d:5e:6f`.
The IEEE EUI-64 process inserts `FFFE` into the middle of a 48-bit MAC address to expand it to 64 bits.
3
Invert the 7th bit (Universal/Local bit) of the first byte.
The first byte `1A` in binary is `0001 1010`. Inverting the 7th bit (2nd bit from the left) changes it to `0001 1000`, which is `18` in hexadecimal.
EUI-64 inverts the Universal/Local bit (7th bit of the first byte) when creating an interface identifier from a MAC address.
4
Format the resulting 48 bits into standard Cisco MAC address notation.
Combining `18`, `2b`, `3c`, `4d`, `5e`, and `6f` produces `182b.3c4d.5e6f`.
Cisco CLI format uses three sets of four hexadecimal digits separated by dots.

Cevap: 10GBASE-SR transceivers utilize multimode fiber (MMF) with LC connectors for short-distance transmission up to several hundred meters.; 1000BASE-T operation requires all four wire pairs of Category 5e or higher unshielded twisted-pair (UTP) cabling.

Cevap

The correct statements are that 10GBASE-SR transceivers utilize multimode fiber (MMF) with LC connectors for short distances, and 1000BASE-T requires all four pairs of UTP cabling.
10GBASE-SR is designed for short-reach multimode fiber up to 300 meters using LC connectors. Additionally, 1000BASE-T standard mandates the use of all four pairs (8 wires) in Cat5e or higher twisted-pair cabling to transmit 1 Gbps data rates.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Analyze optical transceiver standards and media compatibility
10GBASE-SR specifies Short Range operation over 850 nm multimode fiber using LC connectors, making the 10GBASE-SR MMF statement correct. 1000BASE-SX also uses MMF (not SMF), making the 1000BASE-SX SMF statement incorrect.
Optical optics are differentiated by wavelength, distance capability (SR vs LR/LX), and fiber modal type (MMF vs SMF).
2
Analyze copper twisted-pair cabling specifications and pinouts
1000BASE-T requires all four pairs of Category 5e/6 UTP for full Gigabit transmission. Category 6a supports 10GBASE-T up to 100 meters (not restricted to 37 meters).
Gigabit Ethernet utilizes five-level pulse amplitude modulation (PAM-5) across all four pairs simultaneously.
3
Verify MDI/MDI-X cable requirements
Connecting identical layer devices (switch to switch) when Auto-MDIX is turned off requires crossover wiring so transmit pins connect to receive pins.
Straight-through cables connect MDI to MDI-X devices (e.g., switch to host); like-to-like connections require crossover pinouts.

A network engineer inspects a router configuration designed to provide a redundant secondary path to a branch subnet 10.240.12.0/2410.240.12.0/24. The primary path to this destination is dynamically learned via OSPF (default Administrative Distance of 110110). The engineer finds the following static route entry in the running configuration:

`ip route 10.240.12.0 255.255.255.0 192.168.1.2 95`

During normal operation with the OSPF link operational, traffic continues to traverse the backup link. Which TWO statements accurately explain this behavior and the required configuration fix?

Cevap: The configured static route takes precedence over the OSPF route because its configured administrative distance of 9595 is lower than the OSPF default administrative distance of 110110.; Reconfiguring the static route with an administrative distance greater than 110110 allows OSPF to act as the primary route while maintaining the static route as a floating backup.

Cevap

The static route currently pre-empts OSPF because its administrative distance (9595) is lower than OSPF's default (110110). To function correctly as a floating backup, the static route's administrative distance must be set to a value greater than 110110.
Cisco IOS routing table selection relies strictly on Administrative Distance (AD) when comparing routes learned from different sources for the exact same network prefix. OSPF has a default AD of 110110. The configured static route has an AD explicitly set to 9595. Because 9595 is lower than 110110, the router prefers the static route, placing it into the routing table and routing all traffic across the backup link. To convert this into a functional floating static route, the AD of the static route must be increased to a value higher than 110110 (for example, 120120), allowing OSPF to be preferred while the primary link is healthy.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Analyze the Administrative Distance (AD) of the primary path protocol.
OSPF has a standard Cisco IOS default AD of 110110.
Routing decisions prioritize paths with the lowest administrative distance when identical prefix lengths are compared.
2
Evaluate the configured static route's AD.
The command `ip route 10.240.12.0 255.255.255.0 192.168.1.2 95` assigns an explicit AD of 9595.
Since 95<11095 < 110, the router installs the static route into the routing table as the active route, suppressing the OSPF route.
3
Determine the required administrative distance for a floating static route.
The static route's AD must be set higher than the primary path (>110> 110), such as 120120 or 130130.
A floating static route remains out of the routing table until the primary lower-AD route is removed due to network topology changes or link failure.

The backup route must remain inactive in the routing table until the primary OSPF route becomes unavailable. Which command must be configured on the router to fulfill this requirement?

Cevabı ve açıklamayı göster

Cevap: ip route 10.45.0.0 255.255.0.0 192.168.2.1 120

Cevap

The command 'ip route 10.45.0.0 255.255.0.0 192.168.2.1 120' correctly configures the floating static route.
The active route to network 10.45.0.0/1610.45.0.0/16 is learned via OSPF, which has an Administrative Distance of 110. To create a floating static route that serves strictly as a backup, the static route must be configured with an Administrative Distance strictly greater than 110. Specifying a distance of 120 keeps the route out of the routing table while OSPF is functional, and allows Cisco IOS to automatically insert the static route if OSPF fails.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Identify the Administrative Distance (AD) of the active primary route.
The routing table shows OSPF route [110/20], indicating a default Administrative Distance of 110110 for OSPF.
Floating static routes rely on Administrative Distance comparison to determine installation eligibility in the routing table.
2
Determine the required Administrative Distance for a floating static backup route.
The backup static route must have an AD strictly greater than 110110 (such as 120120).
Cisco IOS installs the route with the lowest Administrative Distance. Setting a higher AD keeps the static route floating in configuration without entering the active routing table until the primary route fails.
3
Formulate the correct Cisco IOS static route command syntax.
ip route 10.45.0.0 255.255.0.0 192.168.2.1 120
The trailing argument in the 'ip route' command defines the custom Administrative Distance.

Which mechanism enables the switch to detect this misconfiguration?

Cevabı ve açıklamayı göster

Cevap: CDP carries a Native VLAN Type-Length-Value (TLV) field in its Layer 2 advertisements, allowing the switch to compare its locally configured native VLAN against the neighbor's advertised native VLAN.

Cevap

CDP carries a Native VLAN Type-Length-Value (TLV) field in its advertisements, allowing switches to compare their configured native VLAN with that of directly connected Cisco neighbors.
Cisco Discovery Protocol (CDP) periodically sends Layer 2 multicast messages containing Type-Length-Value (TLV) metadata structures. One of these structures is the Native VLAN TLV. When a switch receives a CDP frame on an 802.1Q trunk interface, it compares the native VLAN ID advertised in the Native VLAN TLV with the local native VLAN configured on that port. If the two values differ (e.g., VLAN 10 vs. VLAN 20), the switch logs a %CDP-4-NATIVE_VLAN_MISMATCH message.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Identify the protocol generating the syslog message.
The prefix %CDP indicates the message was generated by Cisco Discovery Protocol.
Syslog events starting with %CDP originate from the active CDP process.
2
Analyze how CDP exchanges configuration details across Layer 2 links.
CDP packs information elements into Type-Length-Value (TLV) fields within Layer 2 frames.
TLVs allow CDP to transmit specific device attributes, such as platform, capabilities, management addresses, and native VLAN IDs.
3
Determine how the native VLAN mismatch condition is detected.
The local switch compares its configured native VLAN (10) against the Native VLAN TLV value (20) in the neighbor's CDP frame.
When a discrepancy is detected between local interface configuration and incoming TLV payload, a Native VLAN Mismatch syslog event is triggered.

Cevap: switchport mode access
switchport access vlan 30
switchport nonegotiate

Cevap

The command sequence consisting of `switchport mode access`, `switchport access vlan 30`, and `switchport nonegotiate` correctly assigns the port statically to VLAN 30 and disables DTP negotiation.
The correct command sequence explicitly configures the interface as a static access port (`switchport mode access`), assigns it to the designated access VLAN (`switchport access vlan 30`), and prevents the port from sending Dynamic Trunking Protocol frames (`switchport nonegotiate`).

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Analyze current interface state
The administrative mode is `dynamic auto`, meaning it will dynamically negotiate a trunk if the opposing side initiates negotiation.
To secure and statically assign an access port, dynamic trunking must be overridden.
2
Statically set access mode and assign target VLAN
`switchport mode access` forces static access behavior, and `switchport access vlan 30` binds untagged traffic to VLAN 30.
Access ports belong to a single broadcast domain (VLAN) for end-host traffic.
3
Disable DTP frame generation
`switchport nonegotiate` stops DTP frames from being sent out the port.
Disabling DTP prevents unauthorized trunk establishment attempts on access ports.

The correct command follows the exact Cisco IOS syntax for a fully specified IPv6 static route: 'ipv6 route <destination-prefix/mask> <exit-interface> <next-hop-link-local-address> [administrative-distance]'.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Identify the proper global configuration command prefix for IPv6 static routing.
Use 'ipv6 route' rather than IPv4's 'ip route'.
Cisco IOS separates IPv4 and IPv6 routing table management commands.
2
Evaluate link-local next-hop address rules in Cisco IOS IPv6 static routes.
When a link-local address (fe80::/10) is used as the next hop, the local exit interface (GigabitEthernet0/1) MUST also be specified (fully specified static route).
Link-local addresses are valid only on the local link and are shared across multiple interfaces, creating ambiguity if an exit interface is not designated.
3
Append the optional Administrative Distance (AD) value to the end of the command.
Place '110' at the end of the command string.
Setting an explicit AD overrides the default static route administrative distance of 1.

During network troubleshooting, an administrator discovers that Router A is receiving OSPFv2 Hello packets from directly connected Router B. However, Router B is dropping all incoming Hello packets from Router A because of an inbound interface access list. In which OSPF neighbor state will Router A remain with respect to Router B?

Cevabı ve açıklamayı göster

Cevap: Init

Cevap

Router A will remain in the Init neighbor state.
When a router receives an OSPF Hello packet from a neighbor, it places that neighbor into the Init state. To transition to the 2-Way state, bidirectional communication must be verified—meaning the receiving router must see its own Router ID listed inside the neighbor's Hello packet. Because the access list blocks Router A's Hellos from reaching Router B, Router B never learns of Router A and never includes Router A's Router ID in its Hellos. Consequently, Router A remains stuck in the Init state.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Analyze the flow of OSPF Hello packets between Router A and Router B.
Router A receives Hello packets sent by Router B, but Router B does not receive Hello packets from Router A due to the inbound access list.
Unidirectional communication is occurring.
2
Evaluate the requirement for transitioning out of the Init state.
To move from Init to 2-Way state, Router A must see its own Router ID listed in the Neighbor field of Router B's Hello packet.
This verifies bidirectional communication between the two neighbors.
3
Determine Router A's resulting neighbor state.
Because Router B never receives Router A's Hellos, Router B never includes Router A's Router ID in its Hello packets. Router A remains stuck in the Init state.
Receiving a Hello packet without seeing one's own Router ID keeps the neighbor in the Init state.

Cevabı ve açıklamayı göster

Cevap

The correct sequence for router forwarding decision logic is: 1) Inspect the destination IPv4 address and search the routing table for matching prefixes, 2) Select the route with the longest prefix match, 3) Extract the next-hop IPv4 address and exit interface, 4) Query the ARP cache for the next-hop Layer 2 MAC address, and 5) Decrement packet TTL, encapsulate into a new Layer 2 frame, and transmit out the exit interface.
When a router receives an IPv4 packet, the forwarding process follows a strict sequence: First, the destination IPv4 address is compared against candidate routes in the routing table. Next, the router selects the route entry with the longest prefix match (most specific subnet mask). Once the best route is selected, the router identifies the next-hop IPv4 address and exit interface. It then queries the local ARP cache to find the corresponding destination MAC address for the next hop. Finally, it modifies the packet by decrementing the Time to Live (TTL) by 1, recalculating the IPv4 checksum, encapsulating the packet into a new Layer 2 frame with updated source/destination MAC addresses, and forwarding it out the exit interface.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Receive packet and parse IPv4 header.
Destination IPv4 address extracted for routing table comparison.
The router must compare the destination address against candidate prefix entries in the routing table.
2
Apply Longest Prefix Match (LPM) evaluation.
The route entry with the highest mask length (e.g., /28 over /24) is selected.
LPM is the primary rule for forwarding lookup in Cisco routers.
3
Identify forwarding path details.
Next-hop IPv4 address and egress interface determined.
The matching route entry specifies the destination gateway and physical/logical outbound interface.
4
Perform Layer 2 resolution.
Target MAC address obtained from the ARP table.
Layer 2 framing requires the destination MAC address of the next-hop router or end-host.
5
Process packet header modifications and frame encapsulation.
Frame transmitted out the egress interface.
The router updates TTL/checksum fields and constructs new source/destination MAC addresses for outbound transmission.

Arrange the evaluation steps in the correct order of precedence used by OSPFv2 routers to determine Designated Router (DR) selection on a multiaccess network segment, from the initial eligibility filter to the final tie-breaker.

Öğeleri doğru sıraya koymak için sürükleyin

Cevabı ve açıklamayı göster

Cevap

The correct order of precedence for OSPFv2 DR selection is: 1) Disqualify priority 0 interfaces, 2) Select the candidate with the highest OSPF interface priority, 3) Break priority ties using the highest explicit Router ID or loopback IPv4 address, and 4) Break remaining ties using the highest active physical interface IPv4 address.
During an OSPFv2 DR election on a multiaccess network segment, candidate routers first exclude any interfaces configured with an OSPF priority of 0. Next, routers compare interface priorities to select the highest value. If interface priorities tie, OSPF compares Router IDs by selecting the candidate with the highest explicitly configured Router ID or highest loopback IPv4 address. Finally, if no loopback interface is present, the highest active physical interface IPv4 address is used as the tie-breaker.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Filter out non-eligible candidate interfaces.
Interfaces configured with `ip ospf priority 0` are excluded from DR/BDR candidacy.
A priority of 0 explicitly revokes a router's ability to serve as DR or BDR.
2
Compare candidate interface priority values.
The router with the highest numeric priority value (1 to 255) is preferred.
Interface priority is the primary metric for OSPF DR election.
3
Evaluate Router ID using explicit setting or loopback addresses.
If interface priorities tie, the router with the highest explicit Router ID or highest active loopback IP address is selected.
Router ID serves as the secondary selection criteria when priorities are tied.
4
Evaluate physical interface IP addresses.
If no explicit Router ID or loopback interfaces exist, the highest active physical interface IPv4 address breaks the tie.
Physical interface IPv4 addresses are the final tie-breaker for Router ID assignment and election decisions.

In a network running Rapid PVST+ for VLAN 30, Switch-4 has two direct Gigabit Ethernet connections to Switch-2, which is the Root Bridge. Link 1 connects Switch-4 port GigabitEthernet0/1 to Switch-2 port GigabitEthernet0/1. Link 2 connects Switch-4 port GigabitEthernet0/2 to Switch-2 port GigabitEthernet0/2. All interface costs use default values. Which port role and state will port GigabitEthernet0/2 on Switch-4 assume after STP convergence completes?

Cevap: Alternate port in the Discarding state

Cevap

Port GigabitEthernet0/2 on Switch-4 will become an Alternate port in the Discarding state.
When a non-root switch has multiple parallel links connected to the same upstream Root Bridge, the tie-breakers for selecting a Root Port are: lowest cumulative Root Path Cost, lowest Designated Bridge ID, lowest upstream Designated (Sender) Port ID, and lowest local Port ID. Here, cumulative cost and Bridge ID are equal for both links. The tie is broken by Switch-2's sender Port ID: Gi0/1 has a lower numerical Port ID than Gi0/2. Thus, Switch-4's GigabitEthernet0/1 becomes the Root Port in the Forwarding state, while GigabitEthernet0/2 assumes the Alternate port role in the Discarding state to block switching loops.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Determine Root Port selection on Switch-4 across redundant paths to the Root Bridge.
Both local ports (Gi0/1 and Gi0/2) connect directly to Root Bridge Switch-2, resulting in identical Root Path Cost (44) and identical Root/Designated Bridge ID.
When Root Path Cost and Designated Bridge ID are tied, Rapid PVST+ evaluates the upstream Designated (Sender) Port ID to break the tie.
2
Compare upstream sender Port IDs from Switch-2.
Switch-2 sends BPDUs out its Gi0/1 port (Port ID 128.1128.1) to Switch-4's Gi0/1, and out its Gi0/2 port (Port ID 128.2128.2) to Switch-4's Gi0/2. Lower port priority/number wins.
Since 128.1<128.2128.1 < 128.2, Switch-4 selects port GigabitEthernet0/1 as its single Root Port.
3
Determine the role and state for the remaining unselected port GigabitEthernet0/2 on Switch-4.
GigabitEthernet0/2 receives superior BPDUs from Switch-2 compared to any BPDUs Switch-4 could send, so Switch-4 places GigabitEthernet0/2 into the Alternate port role, which operates in the Discarding state.
Alternate ports offer an alternate path to the Root Bridge and remain blocked (Discarding) to prevent Layer 2 loops.

A Cisco router initializes OSPFv2 Process 1 with the following operational interfaces:
- Loopback0: 10.1.1.1/32 (status up, line protocol up)
- GigabitEthernet0/0: 172.16.10.1/24 (status up, line protocol up)

After OSPF Process 1 is fully active, a network engineer performs the following configuration actions in exact chronological sequence:
1. Configures Loopback1 with IP address 10.254.254.254/32 (status up, line protocol up).
2. Enters OSPF router configuration mode and executes the command `router-id 192.168.99.1`.
3. Configures GigabitEthernet0/1 with IP address 192.168.200.1/24 (status up, line protocol up).

Assuming no router reboot or `clear ip ospf process` command has been executed, what IP address is currently used as the operational OSPFv2 Router ID for Process 1?

Cevabı ve açıklamayı göster

Cevap: 10.1.1.1

Cevap

10.1.1.1
When OSPF Process 1 initially started, 10.1.1.1 was elected as the Router ID because Loopback0 was the sole operational loopback interface. OSPF Router ID selection is non-preemptive once an active process has selected its ID. Adding a loopback with a higher IP address (10.254.254.254), configuring an explicit `router-id 192.168.99.1` command, or activating new physical interfaces will not modify the operational Router ID until `clear ip ospf process` is executed or the router reboots. Thus, the active Router ID remains 10.1.1.1.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Determine the initial OSPFv2 Router ID selected when Process 1 started.
Loopback0 (10.1.1.1) was selected because operational loopback interface IP addresses take priority over physical interface IP addresses during initial Router ID election.
In Cisco IOS OSPFv2, if no manual router ID is configured at startup, the router chooses the highest IP address among operational loopback interfaces.
2
Evaluate the impact of configuring Loopback1 (10.254.254.254/32).
The active Router ID remains 10.1.1.1.
OSPF Router ID election is non-preemptive. Dynamically elected Router IDs do not change automatically when new interfaces with higher IP addresses come online.
3
Evaluate the impact of executing `router-id 192.168.99.1`.
The active Router ID remains 10.1.1.1.
Configuring a manual OSPF router ID on an already running OSPF process does not take effect until the process is reset or the router is rebooted.
4
Evaluate the impact of adding GigabitEthernet0/1 and determine the final operational Router ID.
The active Router ID stays 10.1.1.1.
Without a process reset via `clear ip ospf process` or a device reload, none of the subsequent configuration changes displace the active Router ID.

A network administrator is deploying Cisco Lightweight Access Points (LAPs) at a remote branch office connected to a main campus Wireless LAN Controller (WLC) over a WAN link. The branch APs are configured in FlexConnect mode with local switching configured for the primary employee WLAN. Which two statements accurately describe the operational behavior of these access points under normal operations and during a WAN outage? (Select two.)

Geçerli olan tümünü seçin

Cevabı ve açıklamayı göster

Cevap: During normal operations with an active WAN connection, control traffic is encapsulated in a CAPWAP tunnel to the central WLC while user data traffic on locally switched WLANs is bridged directly onto the local branch switch.; If the WAN link fails and the AP enters Standalone mode, existing client sessions on locally switched WLANs using local authentication methods continue to transmit traffic without disruption.

Cevap

In FlexConnect mode with local switching, CAPWAP control traffic goes to the central WLC while client data traffic is bridged directly to the local branch network. If the WAN connection to the WLC fails, the AP transitions to Standalone mode and continues forwarding data for locally switched WLANs.
FlexConnect mode is designed for branch office deployments connected over WAN links. Under normal conditions, CAPWAP control traffic is tunneled to the central Wireless LAN Controller, while client data traffic on locally switched WLANs is bridged directly to the local Ethernet switch. When WAN connectivity to the controller is lost, the AP transitions into Standalone mode and maintains data forwarding and local authentication for locally switched WLANs without dropping client traffic.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Analyze FlexConnect mode functionality during normal operations (Connected state).
Control traffic (CAPWAP control) is sent over the WAN to the central WLC, whereas data traffic for locally switched WLANs stays local and is switched onto the branch network.
FlexConnect implements split-MAC architecture flexible enough to separate control plane encapsulation from local data plane forwarding.
2
Evaluate FlexConnect mode behavior during a WAN connectivity loss (Standalone state).
The AP continues operating locally switched WLANs in Standalone mode, allowing active clients and locally authenticated clients to remain connected.
Standalone mode provides high availability at remote sites by avoiding complete wireless downtime when WLC reachability drops.

A network router currently receives its primary path to network 10.0.0.0/24 via RIP, which has a default administrative distance of 120. A network engineer needs to configure a static route to network 10.0.0.0/24 via the next-hop address 192.168.1.2 to act as a floating backup, activating only if the primary RIP route fails. Which command correctly configures this floating static route?

Cevap: ip route 10.0.0.0 255.255.255.0 192.168.1.2 130

Cevap

ip route 10.0.0.0 255.255.255.0 192.168.1.2 130
The command 'ip route 10.0.0.0 255.255.255.0 192.168.1.2 130' assigns an administrative distance of 130 to the static route. Because 130 is greater than RIP's administrative distance of 120, Cisco IOS keeps the static route out of the routing table as long as the RIP route remains active. If the RIP route fails, the floating static route is inserted into the routing table as the backup path.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Identify the primary routing protocol and its administrative distance.
The primary route is learned via RIP, which has a default administrative distance of 120.
Floating static routes rely on administrative distance values to determine route priority.
2
Determine the required administrative distance for a floating static route.
The administrative distance of the floating static route must be configured strictly greater than 120 (e.g., 130).
Cisco IOS prefers routes with lower administrative distances. To remain inactive in the routing table as a backup until the primary path disappears, the backup static route's administrative distance must be higher than that of the primary route.
3
Select the Cisco IOS command line syntax matching the required administrative distance.
The command 'ip route 10.0.0.0 255.255.255.0 192.168.1.2 130' correctly specifies a distance of 130.
Specifying 130 trailing the next-hop address correctly sets the administrative distance higher than RIP (120).

A floating static route requires an administrative distance configured higher than that of the active primary dynamic routing protocol.
