- Question

- C. 2 and 4
- D. 2, 3 and 4 Discuss
- 3. Which command will display all the EIGRP feasible successor routes known to a router?
Options- A. show ip routes *
- B. show ip eigrp summary
- C. show ip eigrp topology
- D. show ip eigrp adjacencies Discuss
- 4. You get a call from a network administrator who tells you that he typed the following into his router:
He tells you he still can't see any routes in the routing table. What configuration error did the administrator make?Router(config)#router ospf 1 Router(config-router)#network 10.0.0.0 255.0.0.0 area 0
Options- A. The wildcard mask is incorrect.
- B. The OSPF area is wrong.
- C. The OSPF Process ID is incorrect.
- D. The AS configuration is wrong. Discuss
- 5. You need the IP address of the devices with which the router has established an adjacency. Also, the retransmit interval and the queue counts for the adjacent routers need to be checked. What command will display the required information?
Options- A. show ip eigrp adjacency
- B. show ip eigrp topology
- C. show ip eigrp interfaces
- D. show ip eigrp neighbors Discuss
- 6. Which of the following is true regarding VLANs?
Options- A. You must have at least two VLANs defined in every Cisco switched network.
- B. All VLANs are configured at the fastest switch and, by default, propagate this information to all other switches.
- C. You should not have more than 10 switches in the same VTP domain.
- D. VTP is used to send VLAN information to switches in a configured VTP domain. Discuss
- 7. Which of the following is true regarding VTP?
Options- A. All switches are VTP servers by default.
- B. All switches are VTP transparent by default.
- C. VTP is on by default with a domain name of Cisco on all Cisco switches.
- D. All switches are VTP clients by default. Discuss
- 8. Which of the following are benefits of VLANs?
- They increase the size of collision domains.
- They allow logical grouping of users by function.
- They can enhance network security.
- They increase the size of broadcast domains while decreasing the number of collision domains.

- They increase the number of broadcast domains while decreasing the size of the broadcast domains.
Options- A. 1 and 5
- B. 2 and 4
- C. 1, 3 and 5
- D. 2, 3 and 6 Discuss
- 9. To configure the VLAN trunking protocol to communicate VLAN information between two switches, what two requirements must be met?
- Each end of the trunk link must be set to the IEEE 802.1e encapsulation.
- The VTP management domain name of both switches must be set the same.
- All ports on both the switches must be set as access ports.
- One of the two switches must be configured as a VTP server.
- A rollover cable is required to connect the two switches together.
- A router must be used to forward VTP traffic between VLANs.
Options- A. 1, 2 and 4
- B. 3, 5 and 6
- C. 2 and 4
- D. 1 and 6 Discuss
- 10. Which of the following commands sets a trunk port on a 2960 switch?
Options- A. trunk on
- B. trunk all
- C. switchport trunk on
- D. switchport mode trunk Discuss

Correct Answer: Switch(config-if)# switchport trunk encapsulation dot1q
Explanation:
If you are on a 2950 switch, then the interface command is just
switchport mode trunk, since the 2950 can only run the IEEE 802.1Q version. However, a 3550 can run both ISL and 802.1Q, so you must use the encapsulation command. The argument to choose 802.1Q for a trunking protocol is
dot1q.
Correct Answer: 1 and 3
Explanation:
ISL is a Cisco-proprietary frame-tagging method. IEEE 802.1Q is the nonproprietary version of frame tagging.
Correct Answer: show ip eigrp topology
Explanation:
Any secondary route to a remote network is considered a feasible successor, and those routes are only found in the topology table and used as backup routes in case of primary route failure. You can see the topology table with the
show ip eigrp topology command.
Correct Answer: The wildcard mask is incorrect.
Explanation:
The administrator typed in the wrong wildcard mask configuration. The wildcard should have been 0.0.0.255.
Correct Answer: show ip eigrp neighbors
Explanation:
The
show ip eigrp neighbors command allows you to check the IP addresses as well as the retransmit interval and queue counts for the neighbors that have established an adjacency.
Correct Answer: VTP is used to send VLAN information to switches in a configured VTP domain.
Explanation:
Switches do not propagate VLAN information by default; you must configure the VTP domain. VLAN Trunk Protocol (VTP) is used to propagate VLAN information across a trunked link.
Correct Answer: All switches are VTP servers by default.
Explanation:
All Cisco switches are VTP servers by default. No other VTP information is configured on a Cisco switch by default. You must set the VTP domain name on all switches to be the same domain name or they will not share the VTP database.
Correct Answer: 2, 3 and 6
Explanation:
VLANs break up broadcast domains in a switched layer 2 network, which means smaller broadcast domains. They allow configuration by logical function instead of physical location and can create some security if configured correctly.
Correct Answer: 2 and 4
Explanation:
You must have the same VTP domain name on all switches in order to share VLAN information between the switches. At least one of the switches must be a VTP server; the other switches should be set to VTP client.
Correct Answer: switchport mode trunk
Explanation:
To set a switch port to trunk mode, which allows all VLAN information to pass down the link, use the
switchport mode trunk command.
