Q

Which function is performed by the collapsed core layer in a two-tier architecture?

A

enforcing routing policies.

24
Q

What is the primary function of a Layer 3 device?

A

to pass traffic between different networks.

25
Which two functions are performed by the core layer in a three-tier architecture?
Provide uninterrupted forwarding service. Ensure timely data transfer between layers.
26
What is a recommended approach to avoid co-channel congestion while installing access points that use the 2.4 GHz frequency?
different nonoverlapping channels
27
What are two functions of a Layer 2 switch?
moves packets within a VLAN. makes forwarding decisions based on the MAC address of a packet.
28
Which networking function occurs on the data plane?
forwarding remote client/server traffic
29
What is a role of access points in an enterprise network?
connect wireless devices to a wired network.
30
How does a Cisco Unified Wireless Network respond to Wi-Fi channel overlap?
It analyzes client load and background noise and dynamically assigns a channel.
31
In which situation is private IPv4 addressing appropriate for a new subnet on the network of an organization?
There is limited unique address space, and traffic on the new subnet will stay local within the organization.
32
Which network action occurs within the data plane?
compare the destination IP address to the IP routing table.
33
Which two network actions occur within the data plane?
Add or remove an 802.1Q trunking header. Match the destination MAC address to the MAC address table.
34
Why was the RFC 1918 address space defined?
To conserve public IPv4 addressing
35
What is an appropriate use for private IPv4 addressing?
on hosts that communicate only with other internal hosts
36
What is a requirement for nonoverlapping Wi-Fi channels?
discontinuous frequency ranges
37
A network engineer is installing an IPv6-only capable device. The client has requested that the device IP address be reachable only from the internal network. Which type of IPv6 address must the engineer assign?
link-local address
38
What are two characteristics of an SSID?
It uniquely identifies an access point in a WLAN. It provides secured access to a WLAN.
39
What is the collapsed layer in collapsed core architectures?
Core and distribution
40
What are the two functions of SSIDs?
uses the maximum of 32 alphanumeric characters. supports a single access point.
41
Which two characteristics describe the access layer in a three-tier network architecture?
physical connection point for a LAN printer. layer at which a wireless access point connects to the wired network.
42
Which PoE mode enables powered-devices detection and guarantees power when the device detected?
Auto
43
What are two reasons to deploy private addressing on a network?
to subnet addresses in an organized hierarchy. to segment local IP addresses from the global routing table.
44
Which property is shared by 10GBase-SR and 10GBase-LR interfaces?
Both require fiber cable media for transmission.
45
Which action is taken by the data plane within a network device?
Forwards traffic to the next hop.
46
What is the function of the control plane?
It exchanges routing table information.
47
Which two cable types must be used to connect an access point to the WLC when 2.5-Gbps and 5-Gbps upload speeds are required?
10GBASE-T Cat 5e
48
Which key function is provided by the data plane?
Forwarding traffic to the next hop.
49
A client experiences slow throughput from a server that is directly connected to the core switch in a data center. A network engineer finds minimal latency on connections to the server, but data transfers are unreliable, and the output of the show interfaces counters errors command shows a high FCS-Err count on the interface that is connected to the server. What is the cause of the throughput issue?
a physical cable fault.
50
What is the difference between 1000BASE-LX/LH and 1000BASE-ZX interfaces?
1000BASE- LX/LH is supported on links up to 10km, and 1000Base-ZX operates over links up to 70 km.
51
What are two reasons to implement IPv4 private addressing on a network?
To provide protection from external denial-of-service attacks. To conserve global unique IPv4 addresses.
52
Which concern is addressed with the use of private IPv4 addressing?
Lack of available publicly routable unique IPv4 address.
53
What is the path for traffic sent from one user workstation to another workstation on a separate switch in a three-tier architecture model?
access; distribution; core; distribution; access
54
Which WAN topology provides a combination of simplicity quality, and availability?
point-to-point.
55
How are the switches in a spine-and-leaf topology interconnected?
Each leaf switch is connected to each spine switch.
