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?
 Port Fa0/11 is in the wrong VLAN.

RTB does not have an active routing protocol.

The IP address of computer B is in the wrong logical network.

Router interface Fa0/1 has the wrong trunk encapsulation type configured.

12 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.

13

Refer to the exhibit. The network administrator enters the configuration shown to allow both SSH and Telnet connections to the switch.
The Telnet connections fail. What is the most likely cause of this problem?
The SSH version number is wrong.

Telnet and SSH cannot be configured simultaneously.

The transport input command is configured incorrectly.

14
 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.

19 Using the command copy tftp:backup.cfg startup-config, an administrator downloaded a saved configuration from a TFTP server to a
switch. Why does the administrator not detect any changes in the switch configuration after the download completes?
The command should have been copy startup-config tftp:backup.cfg.

A backup configuration from a TFTP server cannot be copied directly into the startup-config.

The command copy running-config startup-config should be used to save the changes on the switch.

Downloading to the startup-config requires the switch to be reloaded in order for the configuration to take effect.

It is participating in the election process by forwarding the BPDUs it receives.

It is receiving BPDUs and populating the MAC address table, but not sending data.

29 Which statement is accurate about fast-forward switching?

The switch stores the first 64 bytes of the frame before forwarding.

After reading the destination address, the switch immediately forwards a frame.

The switch receives the complete frame and stores it in buffers before forwarding it.
 The switch analyzes the frame for information about its destination. After confirming the integrity of the frame, the switch forwards it
out the correct port.

30

Refer to the exhibit. The switch VTY lines have been properly configured, but PC1 is unable to remotely manage the switch. How can
this problem be resolved?
Configure the Fa0/1 interface of the switch in trunk mode.

Configure a default gateway on the switch.

Configure the Fa0/1 interface of the switch to allow all VLANs.

31

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.
