21
 Refer to the exhibit. The switches have been configured as shown. The hosts that are
connected to switch 101-2FL are not able to communicate with the hosts in their
corresponding VLANs that are connected to switch 101-3FL. What should be done to
fix the problem?
Configure port Fa0/2 on switch 101-3FL as a static trunk link.

Introduce a Layer 3 device or a switch with Layer 3 capability into the topology.
Utilize the switchport trunk allowed vlan all command on switch 101-3FL to
permit the VLAN traffic.
Apply IP addresses that are in the same subnet to the interfaces that are used to
connect switches 101-2FL and 101-3FL.

22 Which statement correctly describes the spanning-tree path cost?

It is calculated based on the total number of switches connected in a loop.

It is calculated based on the utilization of all the switches along a given path.

It is calculated based on the bridge priority of the switches along a given path.
It is calculated based on the sum of the port cost value, determined by link speed, for
each switch port along a given path.

23 Which statement is correct about STP architecture?

Spanning Tree Protocol will guarantee a loop free Layer 2 topology.

Spanning Tree Protocol guarantees the shortest path to destination networks.

The switch with the highest priority will be assigned the lowest BID in the root election.

The first step in the spanning-tree election process is to determine the root port.
To select designated ports, the spanning-tree algorithm must determine the longest
contiguous path from the root bridge.

Refer to the exhibit. RTB is configured for traditional inter-VLAN routing. RTB can ping
computer A but cannot ping computer B. What is a possible cause of this failure?

 Interfaces Gi0/1 and Fa0/1 are allowed to carry data from multiple VLANs.

Refer to the exhibit. Router R1 is connected to a switch through a trunk. What two ways
are indicative of how the router handles incoming VLAN traffic? (Choose two.)
Data from VLAN 20 is not being routed.

Incoming traffic with VLAN ID 1 is processed by interface Fa0/0.

Incoming traffic that has a VLAN ID of 10 is processed by subinterface Fa0/0.1.

VLAN traffic is processed on the subinterfaces even if Fa0/0 line protocol goes down.
The router uses a unique MAC address on VLAN 10 and 20 by adding the 802.1Q VLAN
ID to the hardware address.
Traffic inbound on this router is processed by different subinterfaces depending on the
VLAN from which the traffic originated.

28 What is the correct order in which the STP components are chosen?
designated ports, nondesignated ports, root bridge, root ports

nondesignated ports, designated ports, root ports, root bridge

root bridge, root ports, designated ports, nondesignated ports

root ports, root bridge, nondesignated ports, designated ports

Change the trunk encapsulation on Switch2 Fa0/1 to dot1q.

Change the native VLAN on Switch2 interface Fa0/1 to VLAN 100.

Change the access mode VLAN on Switch2 to the default VLAN 1.

3 Why is it important that the network administrator consider the spanning-tree network
1 diameter when choosing the root bridge?
The network diameter limitation is 9.

BPDUs may be discarded because of expiring timers.

The cabling distance between the switches is 100 meters.

The network diameter must be set to the number of meters of the cable between the
root bridge and its farthest connected switch.

 Refer to the exhibit. Router R-West and switch S-West1 are connected via a single
ethernet cable between the router interface fa0/0 and the switch interface fa0/1. The
router and switch have been configured with the commands that are displayed in the
exhibit. The network administrator enters the show interfaces trunk command and
receives the output as shown. What is the cause of the "not-trunking" status for switch
port Fa0/1?
The trunk is established, but no VLANs have been configured to use it.
The router is missing the dynamic trunking protocol statements necessary to form a
trunk.
Because the router does not support Dynamic Trunking Protocol, the trunk has not
been established.
The router, the switch, or both must be configured with the dynamic desirable
option for Dynamic Trunking Protocol to establish a trunk.

33 After unpacking a new Linksys WRT300N wireless multifunction device, a user needs to
change the default administrator password and make other configuration changes.
What must the user do to access the device in order to make these changes?

HyperTerminal session with the device.
Establish a wired connection with the device and then reboot the attached
computer to launch the configuration software.
Establish a wired connection from a computer in the same IP subnet as the
WRT300N and enter the default IP address of the device into a web browser on the
computer.
Modify the TCP/IP properties of the computer that is connected to the WRT300N so
that the computer and the WRT300N exist on the same network. Then reboot the
computer to establish a connection.

After listening for the presence of a signal on the network media, hosts A and C
transmit data at the same time. In what two ways do the hosts respond to this
situation? (Choose two.)
The hosts transmit a jam signal to ensure that all hosts on the network are aware
that a collision has occured.
Because they are operating in full-duplex mode, the hosts resume listening for
traffic in preparation for sending future messages.
Because the hub will temporarily block traffic from one of the hosts, that host will
be allowed to transmit once the wire is clear.
Hosts A and C are assigned shorter backoff values to provide them priority to
access the media for retransmission.
After the backoff period of a host, the host checks to determine if the line is idle
before retransmitting.

 Refer to the exhibit. The network administrator is planning five additional VLANs to
