If you use either Telnet or FTP, which is the highest layer you are using to transmit data?
Options
A. Application
B. Presentation
C. Session
D. Transport
Correct Answer
Application
Explanation
Both FTP and Telnet use TCP at the Transport layer; however, they both are Application layer protocols, so the Application layer is the best answer.

1. What is the problem with an interface if you type show interface serial 0 and receive the following message? "Serial0 is administratively down, line protocol is down."
Options
A. The keepalives are different times.
B. The administrator has the interface shut down.
C. The administrator is pinging from the interface.
Correct Answer: The administrator has the interface shut down.
Explanation:
If an interface is shut down, the
show interface command will show the interface as administratively shut down. (It is possible that no cable is attached, but you can't tell that from this message.)
2. If you wanted administrators to see a message when logging into the router, which command would you use?
The
show controllers serial 0 command will show you whether either a DTE or DCE cable is connected to the interface. If it is a DCE connection, you need to add clocking with the clock rate command.
5. You type the following command into the router and receive the following output:
Router#show serial 0/0
^
% Invalid input detected at '^' marker.
Why was this error message displayed?
Options
A. You need to be in privileged mode.
B. You cannot have a space between serial and 0/0.
C. The router does not have a serial0/0 interface.
To copy the running-config to NVRAM so that it will be used if the router is restarted, use the
copy running-config startup-config command (
copy run start for short).
7. Which of the following commands displays the configurable parameters and statistics of all interfaces on a router?
With the
show interfaces command, you can view the configurable parameters, get statistics for the interfaces on the router, verify if the interfaces are shut down, and see the IP address of each interface.
8. If your routing table has a static, a RIP, and an IGRP route to the same network, which route will be used to route packets by default?
Static routes have an administrative distance of 1 by default. Unless you change this, a static route will always be used over any other found route. IGRP has an administrative distance of 100, and RIP has an administrative distance of 120, by default.
9. What is route poisoning?
Options
A. It sends back the protocol received from a router as a poison pill, which stops the regular updates.
B. It is information received from a router that can't be sent back to the originating router.
C. It prevents regular update messages from reinstating a route that has just come up.
D. It describes when a router sets the metric for a downed link to infinity.
Correct Answer: It describes when a router sets the metric for a downed link to infinity.
Explanation:
Another way to avoid problems caused by inconsistent updates and to stop network loops is route poisoning. When a network goes down, the distance-vector routing protocol initiates route poisoning by advertising the network with a metric of 16, or unreachable (sometimes referred to as infinite).
10. What is split horizon?
Options
A. Information about a route should not be sent back in the direction from which the original update came.
B. It splits the traffic when you have a large bus (horizon) physical network.
C. It holds the regular updates from broadcasting to a downed link.
D. It prevents regular update messages from reinstating a route that has gone down.
