Question 17:
Refer to the exhibit. All switch ports are assigned to the correct VLANs, but none of the hosts connected to SwitchA can communicate with hosts in the same VLAN connected to SwitchB. Based on the output shown, what is the most likely problem?
A. The access link needs to be configured in multiple VLANs.
B. The link between the switches is configured in the wrong VLAN.
C. The link between the switches needs to be configured as a trunk.
D. VTP is not configured to carry VLAN information between the switches.
E. Switch IP addresses must be configured in order for traffic to be forwarded between the switches.
Answer: C
Explanation:For VLAN information to travel from one switch to another within the same VLAN we need to configure the link port between switches as trunk ports.
Switchport mode trunk
Question 18:
Refer to the exhibit. The network administrator normally establishes a Telnet session with the switch from host A. However, host A is unavailable. The administrator's attempt to telnet to the switch from host B fails, but pings to the other two hosts are successful. What is the issue?
A. Host B and the switch need to be in the same subnet.
B. The switch interface connected to the router is down.
C. Host B needs to be assigned an IP address in VLAN 1.
D. The switch needs an appropriate default gateway assigned.
E. The switch interfaces need the appropriate IP addresses assigned.
Answer: D
Explanation:Ping was successful form host B to other hosts because of intervlan routing configured on router. But to manage switch via telnet the VLAN32 on the switch needs to be configured interface vlan32 along with ip address and its appropriate default-gateway address.
Since VLAN1 interface is already configure on switch Host A was able to telnet switch.
Question 19:
Refer to the exhibit. Configuration of both switches has been completed. During testing, the network administrator notices that users on SwitchA can not connect with users in the same VLAN on SwitchB. What should be done to solve this problem?
A. Ensure that the IP address of SwitchA is on the same network as the IP address of SwitchB.
B. Ensure that the same interface number is used to connect both switches.
C. Ensure that the ports connecting the two switches are configured to trunk.
D. Ensure that SwitchA and SwitchB are connected with a straight-through cable.
Answer: C
Explanation:
For VLAN information to communicate from one switch to another within the same VLAN we need to configure the link port (Fa0/3 switchA and fa0/4 switchB) between switches as trunk ports.
Switchport mode trunk
Question 20:Refer to the exhibit. The switches have been configured with static VLANs as shown. During testing, the network administrator notices that VLAN 20 on SwitchA has no connectivity with VLAN 30 on SwitchB. What should the network administrator do?
A. Configure the interconnected ports on SwitchA and SwitchB into access mode.
B. Connect the two switches with a straight-through cable.
C. Add a Layer 3 device to connect VLAN 20 and VLAN 30.
D. Configure the management VLAN with IP addresses.
E. Ensure that the VTP passwords match on both switches.
Answer: C
Explanation:To enable connectivity between two different VLAN we need to add a layer 3 device and configure interVLAN routing on it.
Question 21:Refer to the exhibit. The two connected ports on the switch are not turning orange or green. What would be the most effective steps to troubleshoot this physical layer problem? (Choose three.)
A. Ensure that the Ethernet encapsulations match on the interconnected router and switch ports.

A. Purchase a new FastEthernet module and install it on R1.
B. Replace R1 with a new router that has at least three FastEthernet interfaces.
C. Configure a second switch to support VLAN3 with a VLAN trunk between SW1 and the new switch.
D. Configure a single VLAN trunk between R1 and SW1 and configure a subinterface on the R1 interface for
each VLAN.
E. Connect another router to a serial interface of R1. Use a FastEthernet interface on the new router for VLAN3..
Answer: D
Explanation:Create sub interfaces on R1 for each VLAN this way we can save physical ports and be more cost effective , make the port connecting the R1 from switch has trunk port to carry all VLAN information.
Question 23:Refer to the exhibit. S0/0 on R1 is configured as a multipoint interface to communicate with R2 and R3 in this hub-and-spoke Frame Relay topology. While testing this configuration, a technician notes that pings are successful from hosts on the 172.16.1.0/24 network to hosts on both the 172.16.2.0/25 and 172.16.2.128/25 networks. However, pings between hosts on the 172.16.2.0/25 and 172.16.2.128/25 networks are not successful. What could explain this connectivity problem?
A. The ip subnet-zero command has been issued on the R1 router.
B. The RIP v2 dynamic routing protocol cannot be used across a Frame Relay network.
C. Split horizon is preventing R2 from learning about the R3 networks and R3 from learning about the R2 networks.
D. The 172.16.2.0/25 and 172.16.2.128/25 networks are overlapping networks that can be seen by R1, but not between R2 and R3.
E. The 172.16.3.0/29 network used on the Frame Relay links is creating a discontiguous network between the R2 and R3 router subnetworks.
Answer: C
Explanation:Split horizon by default does not allow routing updates to go in and out of the same interface.
Question 24:While troubleshooting a connectivity problem, a network administrator notices that a port status LED on a Cisco Catalyst series switch is alternating green and amber. Which condition could this indicate?
A. The port is experiencing errors.
B. The port is administratively disabled.
C. The port is blocked by spanning tree.
D. The port has an active link with normal traffic activity.
Answer: A
Explanation:Color Port StatusOff No link.
Solid green Link operational (with no link activity).
Flashing green Link operational (with activity). .
Alternating green and amber Link fault. Error frames can affect connectivity, and errors such as excessive collisions, CRC errors, and alignment and jabber errors are monitored for a link-fault indication.
Solid amber Port is not forwarding. For example, this could be because the port was disabled by management, suspended due to an address violation, or suspended by Spanning-Tree Protocol due to the presence of network loops.
Question 25:Refer to the exhibit. Users on WS1 and WS2 are unable to reach the SR1 and SR2 servers to gain the files needed.
