Q

What is the default behavior of a Layer 2 switch when a frame with an unknown destination MAC address is received?
A. The Layer 2 switch drops the received frame
B. The Layer 2 switch floods packets to all ports except the receiving port in the given VLAN
C. The Layer 2 switch sends a copy of a packet to CPU for destination MAC address learning
D. The Layer 2 switch forwards the packet and adds the destination MAC address to Its MAC
address table

A

B. The Layer 2 switch floods packets to all ports except the receiving port in the given VLAN

Q

Which action is taken by a switch port enabled for PoE power classification override?

A. When a powered device begins drawing power from a PoE switch port a syslog message is generated
B. As power usage on a PoE switch port is checked data flow to the connected device is temporarily
paused
C. If a switch determines that a device is using less than the minimum configured power it assumes the device has failed and disconnects
D. If a monitored port exceeds the maximum administrative value for power, the port is shutdown
and err-disabled

A

D. If a monitored port exceeds the maximum administrative value for power, the port is shutdown
