When PVST is running over a switched network, which port state can participate in BPDU frame forwarding based on BPDUs received, but does not forward data frames?
listening
Which STP port role is adopted by a switch port if there is no other port with a lower cost to the root bridge?
root port
What value determines the root bridge when all switches connected by trunk links have default STP configurations?
MAC address
A network administrator configured an EtherChannel link with three interfaces between two switches. What is the result if one of the three interfaces is down?
The remaining two interfaces continue to load balance traffic.
Which command will start the process to bundle two physical interfaces to create an EtherChannel group via LACP?
interface range GigabitEthernet 0/4 - 5
What is one way to correct a spanning tree failure?
Manually remove redundant links in the switched network.
An administrator is troubleshooting a switch and wants to verify if it is a root bridge. What command can be used to do this?
show spanning-tree
A network administrator is analyzing the features that are supported by different first-hop router redundancy protocols. Which statement describes a feature that is associated with HSRP?
HSRP uses active and standby routers.
After the election of the root bridge has been completed, how will switches find the best paths to the root bridge?
Each switch will analyze the sum of all port costs to reach the root and use the path with the lowest cost.
What is an accurate description of redundancy?
designing a network to use multiple paths between switches to ensure there is no single point of failure
A network administrator is analyzing the features that are supported by different first-hop router redundancy protocols. Which statement is a feature that is associated with GLBP?
GLBP allows load balancing between routers
As the network administrator you have been asked to implement EtherChannel on the corporate network. What does this configuration consist of?
grouping multiple physical ports to increase bandwidth between two switches
Which mode configuration setting would allow formation of an EtherChannel link between switches SW1 and SW2 without sending negotiation traffic?
SW1: on
SW2: on
Which PAgP mode mode places an interface in a passive negotiating state in which the interface responds to the PAgP packets that it receives, but does not initiate PAgP negotiation?
PAgP desirable
When a range of ports is being configured for EtherChannel, which mode will configure LACP on a port only if the port receives LACP packets from another device?
passive
