E. Shut down any unused ports and interfaces.Explanation
The two actions that should be included as part of the security checklist are setting timeouts and ACLs on VTY lines and shutting down any unused ports and interfaces. Setting timeouts and ACLs on VTY lines helps to control access to the device and prevent unauthorized access. Shutting down unused ports and interfaces reduces the attack surface and prevents potential security vulnerabilities. Disabling all logging, enabling Telnet on TCP port 23, and using HTTP for web administration would not enhance security and could potentially create security risks.Rate this question:

The network designer recommends using RSTP in the design of a new data center. Thereare multipl redundant Layer 2 switches and links contained in the new design. What is thebenefit of using RSTP rather than STP in this situation?
- A.
Redundant links are not blocked.
- B.
Routing tables converge more quickly.
- C.
Spanning Tree convergence times are reduced.
- D.
Fewer redundant links are required to maintain connectivity.
Correct Answer
C. Spanning Tree convergence times are reduced.Explanation
Using RSTP (Rapid Spanning Tree Protocol) instead of STP (Spanning Tree Protocol) in a design with redundant Layer 2 switches and links reduces the convergence times of the Spanning Tree. Convergence time refers to the time it takes for the network to reconfigure itself after a change or failure. RSTP is an improvement over STP as it provides faster convergence by quickly detecting and adapting to changes in the network topology. This ensures that any disruptions or failures in the network are resolved more quickly, resulting in improved overall network performance and availability.Rate this question:

- E.
192.168.1.47 /28
- F.
192.168.1.55 /28
Correct Answer
D. 192.168.1.44 /28Explanation
Based on the given information, the new host needs to be assigned to VLAN 2. Since the subnet mask is /28, it means that the first 28 bits are used for the network address and the remaining 4 bits are used for host addresses. Therefore, the network address would be 192.168.1.32. The host addresses within this network range from 192.168.1.33 to 192.168.1.46. The IP address 192.168.1.44 falls within this range, so it should be assigned to the new host.Rate this question:

A network administrator of a middle-sized company is asked to upgrade the routingprotocol of the network to support VLSM and route summarization. The current companynetwork contains both Cisc and non-Cisco routers. Which routing protocol should be usedfor the upgrade?
- A.
BGP
- B.
RIP1
- C.
RIP2
- D.
EIGRP
Correct Answer
C. RIP2Explanation
RIP2 should be used for the upgrade because it supports Variable Length Subnet Masking (VLSM) and route summarization. RIP2 is an enhanced version of RIP (Routing Information Protocol) and is compatible with both Cisco and non-Cisco routers. BGP (Border Gateway Protocol) is typically used for large-scale networks and is not necessary for a middle-sized company. EIGRP (Enhanced Interior Gateway Routing Protocol) is a Cisco proprietary protocol and may not be compatible with non-Cisco routers. RIP1 does not support VLSM and route summarization.Rate this question:

- A.
The company will not be able to send data faster than 4 Mb/s.
- B.
If the company sends data faster than 4 Mb/s, some of the data frames will be flagged with a DE bit
- C.
If the company sends data faster than 4 Mb/s, the TSP will change the CIR to zero
- D.
When the company sends data faster than 4 Mb/s, the Frame Relay switch will set the BECN bit t 1on the frames that are headed to the company
Correct Answer
B. If the company sends data faster than 4 Mb/s, some of the data frames will be flagged with a DE bitExplanation
If the company sends data faster than the CIR (committed information rate) of 4 Mb/s, some of the data frames will be flagged with a DE (discard eligible) bit. This means that the excess data will be marked as eligible for discard by the network if congestion occurs. This allows the network to prioritize important data and discard less important data during periods of high traffic.Rate this question:
