Enter the no vlan 2 and the vlan 3 commands in global configuration mode. Enter the switchport access vlan 3 command in interface configuration mode. Enter the switchport trunk native vlan 3 command in interface configuration mode. Enter the no shutdown command in interface configuration mode to return it to the default configuration and then configure the port for VLAN 3.

A Cisco switch currently allows traffic tagged with VLANs 10 and 20 across trunk port Fa0/5. What is the effect of issuing a switchport trunk allowed vlan 30 command on Fa0/5?
It allows VLANs 1 to 30 on Fa0/5. It allows VLANs 10, 20, and 30 on Fa0/5. It allows only VLAN 30 on Fa0/5. It allows a native VLAN of 30 to be implemented on Fa0/5.
It allows only VLAN 30 on Fa0/5.
Refer to the exhibit. PC-A and PC-B are both in VLAN 60. PC-A is unable to communicate with PC-B. What is the problem?
The native VLAN should be VLAN 60. The native VLAN is being pruned from the link. The trunk has been configured with the switchport nonegotiate command. The VLAN that is used by PC-A is not in the list of allowed VLANs on the trunk.
The VLAN that is used by PC-A is not in the list of allowed VLANs on the trunk.
Refer to the exhibit. DLS1 is connected to another switch, DLS2, via a trunk link. A host that is connected to DLS1 is not able to communicate to a host that is connected to DLS2, even though they are both in VLAN 99. Which command should be added to Fa0/1 on DLS1 to correct the problem?

What is a characteristic of legacy inter-VLAN routing?
Only one VLAN can be used in the topology. The router requires one Ethernet link for each VLAN. The user VLAN must be the same ID number as the management VLAN. Inter-VLAN routing must be performed on a switch instead of a router.
The router requires one Ethernet link for each VLAN.
What is a disadvantage of using router-on-a-stick inter-VLAN routing?
does not support VLAN-tagged packets requires the use of more physical interfaces than legacy inter-VLAN routing does not scale well beyond 50 VLANs requires the use of multiple router interfaces configured to operate as access links

VIRTUAL LOCAL AREA NETWORK (VLAN)
A GROUP OF HOST WITH COMMON SET OF REQUIREMENTS THAT COMMUNICATE AS IF THEY WERE ATTACHED TO THE SAME WIRE, REGARDLESS OF THEIR PHYSICAL LOCATION. HAS SAME ATTRIBUTES AS A PHYSICAL LAN, BUT IT ALLOWS FOR END STATIONS TO BE GROUPED TOGETHER EVEN IF THEY ARE NOT LOCATED ON THE SAME LAN.
DATA VLAN
is a VLAN that is configured to carry user-generated traffic. A VLAN
carrying voice or management traffic would not be part of a data VLAN.
DEFAULT VLAN
All switch ports become a part of the default VLAN after the initial boot up of a switch loading the default configuration. VLAN 1 IS DEFAULT VLAN
NATIVE VLAN
is assigned to an 802.1Q trunk port. An 802.1Q trunk port supports traffic coming from many VLANs
(tagged traffic), as well as traffic that does not come from a VLAN (untagged traffic). The 802.1Q trunk port places untagged traffic on the native VLAN, which by default is VLAN 1
TRUNK
SWITCHPORT MODE CONFIGURED SO THAT THE SWITCH CAN TRANSMIT TRAFFIC FROM MULTIPLE VLANS OVER A SINGLE LINK
MANAGEMENT VLAN
is any VLAN configured to access the management capabilities of a switch. VLAN 1 is the management VLAN by default. To create the management VLAN, the switch virtual interface (SVI) of that VLAN is assigned an IP address and subnet mask, allowing the switch to be managed via HTTP, Telnet, SSH,
or SNMP.
TAGGING
The 802.1Q header includes a 4-byte tag inserted within the original
Ethernet frame header, specifying the VLAN to which the frame belongs
DYNAMIC TRUNKING PROTOCOL (DTP)
is used to negotiate forming a trunk
between two Cisco devices.
