Cisco 200-301 Online Questions & Answers

• Question 1:

  What are two purposes of HSRP? (Choose two.)

  A. It provides a mechanism for diskless clients to autoconfigure their IP parameters during boot.
  B. It improves network availability by providing redundant gateways.
  C. It groups two or more routers to operate as one virtual router.
  D. It passes configuration information to hosts in a TCP/IP network.
  E. It helps hosts on the network to reach remote subnets without a default gateway.
  B. It improves network availability by providing redundant gateways.
  C. It groups two or more routers to operate as one virtual router.

  ---

  HSRP, which stands for Hot Standby Router Protocol, is a First Hop Redundancy Protocol (FHRP) used in computer networks. Its primary purpose is to provide redundancy and high availability for the default gateway or first hop router in a network where multiple routers operate as a single virtual router.

• Question 2:

  What is a characteristic of an SSID in wireless networks?

  A. identifies an access point on a WLAN
  B. uses the password to connect to an access point
  C. uses policies to prevent unauthorized users
  D. uses a case-sensitive text string
  D. uses a case-sensitive text string

• Question 3:

  Which unified access point mode continues to serve wireless clients after losing connectivity to the Cisco Wireless LAN Controller?

  A. local
  B. mesh
  C. flexconnect
  D. sniffer
  C. flexconnect

  ---

  In previous releases, whenever a FlexConnect access point disassociates from a controller, it moves to the standalone mode. The clients that are centrally switched are disassociated. However, the FlexConnect access point continues to serve locally switched clients. When the FlexConnect access point rejoins the controller (or a standby controller), all clients are disconnected and are authenticated again. This functionality has been enhanced and the connection between the clients and the FlexConnect access points are maintained intact and the clients experience seamless connectivity. When both the access point and the controller have the same configuration, the connection between the clients and APs is maintained.

• Question 4:

  What is an advantage of using auto mode versus static mode for power allocation when an access point is connected to a PoE switch port?

  A. All four pairs of the cable are used
  B. It detects the device is a powered device
  C. The default level is used for the access point
  D. Power policing is enabled at the same time
  C. The default level is used for the access point

• Question 5:

  Which IP address is used when an administrator must open a web-based management session with a lightweight AP?

  A. WLCIP
  B. gateway IP
  C. autonomous AP IP
  D. ACS IP
  A. WLCIP

• Question 6:

  Which step immediately follows receipt of the EAP success message when session resumption is disabled for an EAP-TLS connection?

  A. PMKID caching
  B. four-way handshake
  C. 802.1X authentication
  D. EAPOL-key frame
  C. 802.1X authentication

  ---

  When session resumption is disabled for an EAP-TLS connection, the step that immediately follows the receipt of the EAP success message is the 802.1X authentication. After the EAP success message is received, the authentication server sends an EAP success message to the supplicant indicating that the authentication was successful, and then the supplicant sends an EAPOL-logoff message to the authenticator to terminate the session. After the session is terminated, the supplicant must re-authenticate the next time it tries to connect to the network. Therefore, the next step in the process is to initiate a new 802.1X authentication exchange between the supplicant and the authenticator, starting with the EAPOL-start frame.

• Question 7:

  DRAG DROP

  Drag and drop the AAA lerms from the left onto the descriptions on the right.

  Select and Place:

  

  

• Question 8:

  Refer to the exhibit. What must be configured to enable 802.11w on the WLAN?

  

  A. Set Fast Transition to Enabled.
  B. Enable WPA Policy.
  C. Set PMF to Required.
  D. Enable MAC Filtering.
  C. Set PMF to Required.

  ---

  IEEE 802.11w is an amendment to the IEEE 802.11 standard that defines enhancements to the security of wireless local area networks (WLANs). It specifies the use of Protected Management Frames (PMFs), which provide an additional layer of security for management frames that are used to control the operation of a WLAN. This includes management frames such as Beacon frames, which are used to advertise the presence of a WLAN, and Association Request frames, which are used to initiate the connection process between a client device and an access point. 802.11w aims to prevent certain types of attacks, such as man-in-the-middle attacks, which can be used to intercept and modify management frames in order to disrupt the operation of a WLAN.

• Question 9:

  Which NAT type allows multiple inside hosts to share a single public IP address using different port numbers?

  A. Static NAT
  B. Dynamic NAT
  C. PAT
  D. Destination NAT
  C. PAT

  ---

  Port Address Translation (PAT), also known as NAT overload, allows many internal hosts to share one public IPv4 address. Each internal connection is uniquely identified by a different source port number, enabling simultaneous connections while conserving public IP addresses.

• Question 10:

  Refer to the exhibit.

  

  An administrator received a call from a branch office regarding poor application performance hosted at the headquarters. Ethernet 1 is connected between Router1 and the LAN switch. What identifies the issue?

  A. The QoS policy is dropping traffic.
  B. There is a duplex mismatch.
  C. The link is over utilized.
  D. The MTU is not set to the default value.
  B. There is a duplex mismatch.

  ---

  The output shows that there are 15000 collisions on the interface, indicating a duplex mismatch issue between Router1 and the switch.
