What is required to perform this device configuration? - Answer✔terminal emulation client
What network design would contain the scope of disruptions on a network should a failure
occur? - Answer✔the deployment of distribution layer switches in pairs and the division of
access layer switch connections between them

What are two functions of a router? (Choose two.) - Answer✔It connects multiple IP networks.
It determines the best path to send packets.
What capability is provided by the use of application-specific integrated circuits in Cisco
multilayer switches? - Answer✔forwarding of IP packets independent of the CPU
Which statement describes a characteristic of Cisco Meraki switches? - Answer✔They are
cloud-managed access switches that enable virtual stacking of switches.
A network engineer is reviewing a network design that uses a fixed configuration enterprise
router that supports both LAN and WAN connections. However, the engineer realizes that the
router does not have enough interfaces to support growth and network expansion. Which type
of device should be used as a replacement? - Answer✔a modular router

Refer to the exhibit. Which command was issued on a Cisco switch that resulted in the
exhibited output? - Answer✔show port-security address

make configuration changes to a network device over a network connection.
Which two requirements must always be met to use in-band management to configure a
network device? (Choose two.) - Answer✔at least one network interface that is connected and
operational
Telnet, SSH, or HTTP access to the device
When a Cisco IOS device is being selected or upgraded, which option indicates the capabilities

check the routers configuration. From privileged EXEC mode, which of the following commands
can the administrator use for this purpose? (Choose two.) - Answer✔show startup-config
show running-config
What is the function of PoE pass-through? - Answer✔allows switches, phones, and wireless
access points to receive power over existing Ethernet cables from an upstream switch
A switch is participating in a VTP domain and configured as a VTP server. The switch needs to
propagate VLAN 10 (used by the Manufacturing department) throughout the VTP domain, but
does not have any directly connected hosts using that particular VLAN. Which configuration
would satisfy this requirement? - Answer✔vlan 10
name Manufacturing
exit
Which command should the network administrator implement to prevent the transfer of DTP
frames between a Cisco switch and a non-Cisco switch? - Answer✔S1(config-if)# switchport
nonegotiate
While configuring inter-VLAN routing on a multilayer switch, a network administrator issues the
no switchport command on an interface that is connected to another switch. What is the
purpose of this command? - Answer✔to create a routed port for a single network
What happens to switch ports after the VLAN to which they are assigned is deleted? -
