Accepted Answer

A)   root
B)   domain
C)   management

Accepted Answer

A)   filtering
B)   routing
C)   switching
D)   tagging D

Question 7

What are some of the benefits provided by VLANs?

Accepted Answer

The benefits of using VLANs center on the idea that the administrator can divide a LAN logically without changing the actual physical configuration. This ability provides the administrator with several benefits:
• Ease of adding and moving stations on the LAN
• Ease of reconfiguring the LAN
• Better traffic control
• Increased security,

Question 8

The BPDU messages are sent between the root bridge and the best ports on the other devices, which are called ____.

Accepted Answer

A)   bridge ports
B)   root ports
C)   BDU ports
D)   CBDPU ports

Question 9

VTP ____ mode means that a device is not participating in VTP communications, other than to forward that information through its configured trunk links.

Accepted Answer

A)   forwarding
B)   server
C)   transparent
D)   client

Question 10

Physical path loops help improve a network's fault tolerance; if one path fails, another is available.

Accepted Answer

A) True 
 B)False

Question 11

VLANs can be configured by network administrators to allow membership only for certain devices.

Accepted Answer

A) True 
 B)False

Question 12

____ links are links to non-VLAN-aware devices such as hubs and individual workstations.

Accepted Answer

A)   Access
B)   Trunk
C)   Dynamic
D)   Static

Accepted Answer

A)   Trunking
B)   Access list
C)   Forwarding
D)   Pruning

Question 15

____ means the process of pushing all the inter-VLAN traffic out a single switch port to the router and then having the traffic routed back to the same switch port to the destination VLAN.

Accepted Answer

A)   Pruning
B)   Trunking
C)   Framing
D)   Router-on-a-stick

Question 16

What are the STP ports stable states?

Accepted Answer

The stable states are as follows: Blocking-The port is sending and receiving the STP messages (BPDUs), but it is not receiving or forwarding data frames, in order to prevent logical loops in the network.
• Forwarding-The port is receiving and forwarding data frames, learning new MAC addresses, and sending and receiving BPDUs. All of the ports on a root bridge are configured for forwarding. Disabled-The port is disabled and is neither sending or receiving BPDUs nor forwarding or receiving frames.

Question 17

____ VLANs are configured port-by-port, with each port being associated with a particular VLAN.

Accepted Answer

A)   Dynamic
B)   physical
C)   virtual
