37. What is a disadvantage to using bridges in your network?

A. Filters by MAC address

B. Stops broadcast storms
C. Doesn't stop broadcast storms
D. Can only use up to 4 bridges in any LAN

Answer : C

Explanation :
Even though the 5-4-3 rule specifies you can only have 4 bridges in a network, that is not really a
disadvantage. The disadvantage to bridging is that it filters by MAC address and cannot create separate
networks like a router can. This means that if a broadcast storm was to take place a bridge will forward the
frames.

41. You work as network administrator at Brain dump. Your trainee is configuring a router with both physical and
logical interfaces. He asks you what factor determines the OSPF router ID. What should you tell him?
A. The lowest IP address of any interface.
B. The highest IP address of any interface.
C. The highest IP address of any logical interface.
D. The middle IP address of any logical interface.
E. The lowest IP address of any physical interface.
F. The highest IP address of any physical interface.
G. The lowest IP address of any logical interface.

Answer :F

Explanation: The OSPF topology database includes information about routers and the subnets, or links, to
which they are attached. To identify the routers in the neighbor table’s topology database, OSPF uses a
router ID (RID) for each router. A router’s OSPF RID is that router’s highest IP address on a
physical interface when OSPF starts running.

Note: The OSPF router ID is a 32-bit IP address selected at the beginning of the OSPF process. Thehighest
IP address configured on the router is the router ID. If a loopback address is configured, then it is the router
 ID. In case of multiple loopback addresses, the highest loopback address is the router ID. Once the router ID
is elected it doesn't change unless the IP address is removed or OSPF restarts.

42. Which of the following routes will be used to forward data in a situation where a routing table contains static,
RIP, and IGRP routes destined to the same network with each set to its default administrative distance?
A. The IGRP route
B. The static route
C. The RIP route
D. All three will load balance.

Answer :B

Explanation:To decide which route to use, IOS uses a concept called Administrative Distance.
Administrative distance is a number that denotes how believable an entire routing protocol is on a single
router. The lower the number, the better, or more believable the routing protocol.
Route Type Administrative Distance

A. Static 1
B. IGRP 100
C. RIP 120
o What is the basic characteristic of switches and hubs?

A. Hubs cannot filter frames.

B. Using hubs is costly with regard to bandwidth availability.
C. Switches do and can not forward broadcasts.
D. Switches are more efficient than hubs in processing frames.
E. Switches increase the number of collision domains in the network.

Answer :E

Explanation:Switches increases the number of collisions domains in the network. Switches that are
configured with VLANs will reduce the size of the collision domains by increasing the number of collision
domains in a network, but making them smaller than that of one big, flat network.

PP. When you consider half-duplex and full-duplex Ethernet, what are unique for half-duplex Ethernet?
(Select two options.)
A. Half-duplex Ethernet operates in a shared collision domain.
B. Half-duplex Ethernet operates in an exclusive broadcast domain.
C. Half-duplex Ethernet has efficient throughput.
D. Half-duplex Ethernet has lower effective throughput.
E. Half-duplex Ethernet operates in an exclusive collision domain.

Answer :A, D

Explanation:A single device could not be sending a frame and receiving a frame at the same time because
it would mean that a collision was occurring. So, devices simply chose not to send a frame while receiving a
frame. That logic is called half-duplex logic. Ethernet switches allow multiple frames to be sent over different
ports at the same time. Additionally, if only one device is connected to a switch port, there is never a
possibility that a collision could occur. So, LAN switches with only one device cabled to each port of the
switch allow the use of full-duplex operation. Full duplex means that an Ethernet card can send and receive
concurrently.

45. The MCP technician configured the routers with the specification that follows:
o The routers are named Brain dump1, Brain dump2, and Brain dump3.
o RIP is the routing protocol
o Clocking is provided on the serial 0 interfaces
o The password on each router is "Brain dump"
o The subnet mask on all interfaces is the default mask.
 o The IP addresses are listed in chart below.
46. The following exhibit shows the Braindumps.biz WAN. Study it carefully:

What are the broadcast addresses of the subnets in the Braindumps network? (Select three options).
A. 172.16.82.255
B. 172.16.95.255
C. 172.16.64.255
D. 172.16.32.255
E. 172.16.47.255
F. 172.16.79.255

Answer :B, E, F

Explanation:The subnets in the network are subnetted Class B addresses. A /20 subnet mask means that
the subnet addresses increment by 16.

For example: 172.16.16.0, 172.16.32.0, 172.16.48.0, 172.16.64.0 etc. The broadcast address is the last IP
address before the next subnet address.
B: The switch IP address (172.16.82.90) is in the 172.16.80.0 subnet. 172.16.95.255 is the broadcast
address for the 172.16.80.0 subnet.
E: 172.16.47.255 is the broadcast address for the 172.16.32.0 subnet.
F: 172.16.79.255 is the broadcast address for the 172.16.64.0 subnet.

47. You are a network administrator at Braindumps. The Braindumps network is illustrated in the following
exhibit. Study it carefully:
 Routers Braindumps1 and Braindumps2 are connected through their social interfaces, however, they cannot
communicate. You ascertain that Braindumps1 has the correct configuration.

Can you identify the fault on router Braindumps2?

o Link reliability is insufficient

o IPCP is not open
o Incorrect subnet mask
o Incompatible encapsulation
o Bandwidth allocation is too low
o Incomplete IP address

Answer :D

48. You are a network administrator at Braindumps. The Braindumps network is illustrated in the following exhibit.
Study it carefully:

You want to prevent users on the Research Network and the Internet from accessing the Braindumps
Support server, but you want to allow all other Braindumps users access to the server. You create an access
control list (ACL) called research block. The ACL contains the following statements:
deny 172.16.102.0 0.0.0.255 172.16.104.255 0.0.0.0
permit 172.16.0.0 0.0.255.255 172.16.104.252 0.0.0.0

Which of the following commands sequences will place this list to meet these requirements?

A. Brain dump1 (config)# interface e0

Brain dump1 (config-if)# ip access-group research block in
B. Brain dump1 (config)# interface s0
Brain dump1 (config-if)# ip access-group research block out
C. Brain dump2 (config)# interface s0
Brain dump2 (config-if)# ip access-group research block out
D. Brain dump2 (config)# interface s1
Brain dump2 (config-if)# ip access-group research block in
E. Brain dump3 (config)# interface s1
Brain dump3 (config-if)# ip access-group research block in
F. Brain dump3 (config)# interface e0
Brain dump3 (config-if)# ip access-group research block out

Answer :F

Explanation:To enable the ACL on an interface and define the direction of packets to which the ACL is
applied, the ip access-group command is used.
When referring to a router, these terms have the following meanings.

A. Out - Traffic that has already been through the router and is leaving the interface; the source Would
be where it's been (on the other side of the router) and the destination is where it's Going.
B. In - Traffic that is arriving on the interface and which will go through the router; the source would Be
where it's been and the destination is where it's going (on the other side of the router).
o You are a network administrator at Braindumps. You are troubleshooting a router problem. You
issue the show ip route command on one of the routers. The output from the command is shown in
the following exhibit:
Router Brain dump# Show in ip route.

What does [120/3] represent?

A. 120 is the bandwidth allocation and 3 is the routing process number.

B. 120 is the administrative distance and 3 is the metric for that route.
C. 120 is the value of the update timer and 3 is the number of updates received.
D. 120 is the UDP port for forwarding traffic and 3 is the number of bridges.

Answer :B

Explanation:To decide which route to use, IOS uses a concept called Administrative Distance.
Administrativedistance is a number that denotes how believable an entire routing protocol is on a single
router. The lower the number, the better, or more believable the routing protocol.
Route Type Administrative Distance
Route Type Administrative Distance
 A. Connected 0
B. EIGRP 90
C. IGRP 100
D. OSPF 110
E. RIP 120

For RIP, the metric is the hop count, so in this case the route is 3 hops away.

50. Which PPP authentication methods will you use when configuring PPP on an interface of a Cisco router?
(Select two options.)
A. SSL
B. SLIP
C. PAP
D. LAPB
E. CHAP
F. VNP

Answer :C, E

Explanation :Password Authentication Protocol (PAP) and Challenge Handshake Authentication Protocol
(CHAP) authenticate the endpoints on either end of a point-to-point serial link. Chap is the preferred method
today because the identifying codes flowing over the link are created using a MD5 one-way hash, which is
more secure that the clear-text passwords sent by PAP.

51. If NVRAM lacks boot system commands, where does the router look for the Cisco IOS by default?
A. ROM
B. RAM
C. Flash
D. Bootstrap
E. Startup-.config

Answer :C

Explanation :Flash memory - Either an EEPROM or a PCMCIA card, Flash memory stores fully functional
IOS images and is the default location where the router gets its IOS at boot time. Flash memory also can be
used to store any other files, including configuration files.

52. What could be the rationale behind using passive-interface command when configuring a router?
A. Allows interfaces to share common IP addresses.
B. Allows an interface to remain up without the aid of keepalives.
C. Allows a router to send routing and not receive updates via that interface.
D. Allows a routing protocol to forward updates that is missing its IP address.
E. Allows a router to receive routing updates on an interface but not send updates via that interface.

Answer :E

53. You are a systems administrator at Braindumps and you've just acquired a new Class C IP network. Which of
one of the subnet masks below is capable of providing one useful subnet for each of the above departments
(support, financial, sales & development) while still allowing enough usable host addresses for each
departments needs?
 A. 255.255.255.128
B. 255.255.255.192
C. 255.255.255.224
D. 255.255.255.240
E. 255.255.255.248
F. 255.255.255.252

Answer :C

Explanation:The network currently consists of 5 networks and another network will be acquired. That gives
us atotal of 6 networks. This requires that we use 3 bits for the network address. Using the formula 2n-2 we
get 6. This also leaves us with 5 bits for hosts, which gives us 30 hosts.

54. You are a network administrator at Braindumps. You need to troubleshoot the Braindumps network shown in
the exhibit. Study the Exhibit carefully:

The host, EX1, is connected to the Braindumps1 LAN, but it cannot get access to resources on any ofthe
other networks. The host's configuration is as follows:
 Host address: 192.168.5.45
Subnet mask: 255.255.255.240
Default gateway: 192.168.5.32
Which of the following is the cause of this problem?

A. The default gateway is a subnetwork address.

B. The default gateway is on a different subnet address as the host.
C. The IP address of the host is on a different subnet.
D. The host subnet mask is incompatible to the subnet mask of the attached router interface.

Answer :A

Explanation:The range of the subnet used in this question is 192.168.166.32 to

192.168.166.47.192.168.166.32 is the network address and 192.168.166.47 is the broadcast. This leaving a
usable host address range of 192.168.166.33 to 192.168.166.46.
The default gateway for the host should be 192.168.166.33.

55. Which of the following are benefits of segmenting a network with a router? (Select all that apply)
A. Broadcasts are not forwarded across the router.
B. All broadcasts are completely eliminated.
C. Adding a router to the network decreases latency.
D. Filtering can occur based on Layer 3 information.
E. Routers are more efficient than switches and will process the data more quickly.
F. None of the above.

Answer :A, D
