CCNA Exploration V4 - Accessing The WAN - Exam Final Practice
- 1.
A company is looking for a WAN solution to connect its headquarters site with four remote sites. What advantage would dedicated leased lines provide to the customer compared to a shared Frame Relay solution?
- A.
Lower cost
- B.
Lower latency and jitter
- C.
Variable bandwidth capacity
- D.
Fewer physical router interfaces
Correct Answer
B. Lower latency and jitterExplanation
Dedicated leased lines provide a dedicated connection between the headquarters site and the remote sites, which means that the customer would have exclusive access to the bandwidth and resources of the connection. This results in lower latency and jitter, as there is no sharing of the connection with other users. In contrast, a shared Frame Relay solution would involve sharing the connection with other users, leading to potential congestion and higher latency and jitter.Rate this question:

The network administrator then attempts unsuccessfully to ping the TFTP server from the console session. What should be done next to isolate this problem?
- A.
From R2, validate that interface Fa0/0 is operational.
- B.
From the TFTP server, verify that the software on the TFTP server is operational.
- C.
From the TFTP server, confirm there is enough room on the TFTP server for the Cisco IOSsoftware.
- D.
From the console session, make sure that R1 has a route to the network where the TFTPserver resides.
Correct Answer
D. From the console session, make sure that R1 has a route to the network where the TFTPserver resides.Explanation
To isolate the problem, the network administrator should check if R1 has a route to the network where the TFTP server resides. This is because if there is no route, R1 will not be able to reach the TFTP server, resulting in the unsuccessful ping attempt. By ensuring that there is a proper route, the administrator can establish connectivity between R1 and the TFTP server, allowing for successful backup of the router's Cisco IOS software.Rate this question:

10.1.1.2:1234
- B.
172.30.20.1:1234
- C.
172.30.20.1:3333
- D.
192.168.1.2:80
Correct Answer
A. 10.1.1.2:1234Explanation
The destination IP address of the return packet from the Web Server, when received at the NIC on HostA, would be 10.1.1.2:1234. This is because R1 is performing NAT overload, which means it is translating the private IP address of HostA (10.1.1.2) to a public IP address and port number combination. The return packet from the Web Server would be sent back to the translated IP address and port number, which is 10.1.1.2:1234 in this case.Rate this question:

Which protocol is used to authenticate connections over serial links securely?
- A.
CHAP
- B.
HDLC
- C.
SLIP
- D.
PAP
Correct Answer
A. CHAPExplanation
CHAP (Challenge Handshake Authentication Protocol) is used to authenticate connections over serial links securely. It provides a more secure method of authentication compared to PAP (Password Authentication Protocol) by using a three-way handshake process. During the authentication process, the server challenges the client with a random value, and the client responds with a hash value generated using a shared secret and the challenge. The server then verifies the hash value received from the client. If the values match, the connection is authenticated. CHAP provides protection against replay attacks and does not send passwords in clear text, making it a more secure option for authentication.Rate this question:

While configuring a Frame Relay connection, when should a static Frame Relay map be used?
- A.
The remote router is a non-Cisco router
- B.
The local router is configured with subinterfaces
- C.
Broadcast traffic and multicast traffic over the PVC must be controlled
- D.
Globally significant rather than locally significant DLCIs are being used
Correct Answer
C. Broadcast traffic and multicast traffic over the PVC must be controlledExplanation
A static Frame Relay map should be used when there is a need to control broadcast traffic and multicast traffic over the PVC. This means that the network administrator wants to manage and limit the amount of broadcast and multicast traffic that is sent over the connection. By using a static Frame Relay map, the administrator can specify which traffic is allowed to pass through the PVC and which traffic should be dropped. This is especially useful in scenarios where the network has limited bandwidth or when certain types of traffic need to be prioritized over others.Rate this question:

Correct Answer
B. HQ(config-subif)#frame-relay interface-dlci 301 on Serial 0/0/0.1 HQ(config-subif)# frame-relay interface-dlci 302 on Serial 0/0/0.2Explanation
The point-to-point subinterfaces on HQ should be configured with DLCI 301 on Serial 0/0/0.1 and DLCI 302 on Serial 0/0/0.2. This is because the frame-relay map commands map the IP addresses 172.16.1.1 and 172.16.2.2 to DLCI 301 and DLCI 302 respectively, and these IP addresses are connected to the remote sites. By configuring the subinterfaces with the correct DLCIs, HQ will be able to establish a connection with the remote sites over the Frame Relay network.Rate this question:

- B.
The destination host IP address is embedded in the DLCI.
- C.
The router searches Inverse ARP tables for maps of DLCIs to IP addresses
- D.
A table of static mappings can be searched
- E.
The router broadcasts a request for the required IP address
Correct Answer(s)
C. The router searches Inverse ARP tables for maps of DLCIs to IP addresses
D. A table of static mappings can be searchedExplanation
The router in a Frame Relay network uses two methods to identify the correct VC to forward the message. First, it searches the Inverse ARP tables for maps of DLCIs to IP addresses. This allows the router to determine the correct VC based on the IP address of the destination host. Second, the router can search a table of static mappings. This table contains preconfigured mappings of DLCIs to IP addresses, allowing the router to determine the correct VC based on the destination IP address.Rate this question:

An administrator is configuring a dual stack router with IPv6 and IPv4 using RIPng. The administrator receives an error message when trying to enter the IPv4 routes into RIPng. What is the cause of the problem?
- A.
RIPng is incompatible with dual-stack technology.
- B.
All interfaces have been configured with the incorrect IPv4 addresses.
- C.
RIPv1 or RIPv2 needs to be configured in addition to RIPng to successfully use IPv4.
- D.
When IPv4 and IPv6 are configured on the same interface, all IPv4 addresses are shut down in favor of the newer technology.
Correct Answer
C. RIPv1 or RIPv2 needs to be configured in addition to RIPng to successfully use IPv4.Explanation
The cause of the problem is that RIPv1 or RIPv2 needs to be configured in addition to RIPng to successfully use IPv4. RIPng is specifically designed for IPv6 routing and does not support IPv4 routes. Therefore, to enable IPv4 routing, RIPv1 or RIPv2 must be configured alongside RIPng.Rate this question:

What are the symptoms when the s0/0/0 interface on a router is attached to an operational CSU/DSU that is generating a clock signal, but the far end router on the point-to-point link has not been activated?
- A.
Show controllers indicates cable type DCE V.35. show interfaces s0/0/0 indicates serial down, line protocol down.
- B.
Show controllers indicates cable type DCE V.35. show interfaces s0/0/0 indicates serial up, line protocol down.
- C.
Show controllers indicates cable type DTE V.35. show interfaces s0/0/0 indicates serial up, line protocol down.
- D.
Show controllers indicates cable type DTE V.35. show interfaces s0/0/0 indicates serial down, line protocol down.
Correct Answer
C. Show controllers indicates cable type DTE V.35. show interfaces s0/0/0 indicates serial up, line protocol down.Explanation
The correct answer is "show controllers indicates cable type DTE V.35. show interfaces s0/0/0 indicates serial up, line protocol down." This answer suggests that the cable type is DTE V.35, which means that the router is acting as a data terminal equipment. The fact that the serial interface is up but the line protocol is down indicates that there is a physical connection between the router and the CSU/DSU, but the far end router on the point-to-point link has not been activated.Rate this question:

Refer to the exhibit. Routers R1 and R2 are both configured for single area OSPF. Users who are connected to switch S1 are unable to access database applications that run on servers that are connected to S2. The network engineer is working remotely and only has the information that is shown in the exhibit to direct initial troubleshooting efforts. Based on the exhibit, which OSI layer is the most appropriate to start with for a divide-and-conquer approach?
- A.
Network layer
- B.
Application layer
- C.
Data-link layer
- D.
Physical layer
Correct Answer
C. Data-link layerExplanation
Based on the given exhibit, the most appropriate OSI layer to start with for a divide-and-conquer approach is the data-link layer. This layer is responsible for the reliable transmission of data between two directly connected devices. Since the issue is related to users being unable to access servers connected to S2, it indicates a problem in the local network. By starting with the data-link layer, the network engineer can check for any issues with the physical connections, network switches, or VLAN configurations that may be causing the problem.Rate this question:

Refer to the exhibit. Partial results of the show access-list and show ip interface fastethernet 0/1 commands for router R3 are shown. There are no other ACLs in effect. Host A is unable to telnet to host B. Which action will correct the problem but still restrict other traffic between the two networks?
- A.
Modify the second entry in the list to permit tcp host 192.168.10.10 any eq telnet
- B.
Reverse the order of the TCP protocol statements in the ACL.
- C.
Apply the ACL on the FastEthernet 0/0 interface.
- D.
Apply the ACL in the inbound direction.
Correct Answer
B. Reverse the order of the TCP protocol statements in the ACL.Explanation
Reversing the order of the TCP protocol statements in the ACL will correct the problem. By default, ACLs are evaluated in the order they are configured, and the first matching entry is applied. In this case, since the deny statement for any TCP traffic is listed before the permit statement for telnet traffic, all TCP traffic will be denied, including the telnet traffic between host A and host B. By reversing the order of the TCP protocol statements, the permit statement for telnet traffic will be evaluated first, allowing the telnet traffic between the two hosts.Rate this question:

When configuring remote access to a router, what is the significance of the no password command on a VTY line?
- A.
Logins are prevented on that line.
- B.
No password is required to log in to that line.
- C.
The remote user is not allowed to change the password for that line.
- D.
The remote user is prompted to change the line password after connecting to the router.
Correct Answer
A. Logins are prevented on that line.Explanation
The significance of the "no password" command on a VTY line is that it prevents logins on that line. This means that users will not be able to access the router remotely through that specific line. By removing the requirement for a password, the line becomes inaccessible for remote access.Rate this question:

Refer to the exhibit. The network administrator creates a standard access control list on Router1 to prohibit traffic from the 172.16.1.0/24 network from reaching the 172.16.2.0/24 network while still permitting Internet access for all networks. On which router interface and in which direction should it be applied?
- A.
Interface Fa0/0, inbound
- B.
Interface Fa0/0, outbound
- C.
Interface Fa0/1, inbound
- D.
Interface Fa0/1, outbound
Correct Answer
D. Interface Fa0/1, outboundExplanation
The standard access control list should be applied on interface Fa0/1 in the outbound direction. This means that the access control list will be applied to traffic leaving the Fa0/1 interface. By applying it in the outbound direction on the interface connected to the 172.16.2.0/24 network, the access control list will prohibit traffic from the 172.16.1.0/24 network from reaching the 172.16.2.0/24 network while still allowing Internet access for all networks.Rate this question:

Refer to the exhibit. Routers R1 and R2 have been configured with EIGRP in the same autonomous system. Computers PC1 and PC2 are not able to ping each other. Further investigation has revealed that the route to 192.168.10.0 is missing from the routing table on R2. What is the cause of the problem?
- A.
The networks are not correctly summarized.
- B.
The FastEthernet interfaces on R1 are configured as passive.
- C.
The network statements on R2 are incorrectly configured.
- D.
EIGRP on R1 does not recognize the 192.168.10.0 network.
Correct Answer
B. The FastEthernet interfaces on R1 are configured as passive.Explanation
The FastEthernet interfaces on R1 being configured as passive is the cause of the problem. When an interface is configured as passive in EIGRP, it means that the router will not send or receive EIGRP updates on that interface. As a result, the route to the 192.168.10.0 network is not being advertised from R1 to R2, causing it to be missing from the routing table on R2. This prevents PC1 and PC2 from being able to ping each other.Rate this question:

Correct Answer
D. Exploits vulnerabilities with the intent of propagating itself across a networkExplanation
A major characteristic of a worm is that it exploits vulnerabilities with the intent of propagating itself across a network. Unlike viruses, worms do not require a host program to attach themselves to. They can independently spread and infect multiple systems by taking advantage of security weaknesses. This characteristic allows worms to rapidly spread and cause widespread damage in a short amount of time.Rate this question:

Refer to the exhibit. Which two statements correctly describe how Router1 processes an FTP request that enters interface S0/0/0 and is destined for an FTP server at IP address 192.168.1.5? (Choose two.)
- A.
The packet does not match an access list condition.
- B.
The router matches the incoming packet to the statement that is created from the access-list 201 permit ip any any command.
- C.
The router matches the incoming packet to the statement that is created from the access-list 101 permit ip any 192.168.1.0 0.0.0.255 command.
- D.
The router matches the incoming packet to the statement that is created from the access-list 201 deny icmp 192.168.1.0 0.0.0.255 any command
- E.
The packet is allowed into Router1.
Correct Answer(s)
C. The router matches the incoming packet to the statement that is created from the access-list 101 permit ip any 192.168.1.0 0.0.0.255 command.
E. The packet is allowed into Router1.Explanation
The correct answer is that the router matches the incoming packet to the statement that is created from the access-list 101 permit ip any 192.168.1.0 0.0.0.255 command and the packet is allowed into Router1. This means that the router has an access list configured (access-list 101) that permits any IP traffic from any source to the IP address range 192.168.1.0/24. Therefore, any FTP request destined for the FTP server at IP address 192.168.1.5 will match this access list statement and be allowed into Router1.Rate this question:

Which statement is true about wildcard masks?
- A.
Inverting the subnet mask will always create the wildcard mask.
- B.
A wildcard mask identifies a network or subnet bit by using a "1
- C.
The same function is performed by both a wildcard mask and a subnet mask.
- D.
When a "0" is encountered in a wildcard mask, the IP address bit must be checked.
Correct Answer
D. When a "0" is encountered in a wildcard mask, the IP address bit must be checked.Explanation
A wildcard mask is used in network addressing to identify the bits that are to be checked or ignored in an IP address. When a "0" is encountered in a wildcard mask, it means that the corresponding bit in the IP address must be checked. This allows for more flexibility in defining network or subnet boundaries. The other statements are incorrect. Inverting the subnet mask does not always create the wildcard mask, as the wildcard mask can have different values for different bits. The wildcard mask and subnet mask have different functions, as the subnet mask defines the network or subnet boundaries while the wildcard mask identifies the bits to be checked.Rate this question:
