• Question 1204:

  A network engineer is designing a network for a new branch office. Computers in multiple VLANs will be required to connect to a local SAN. The interconnection between the VLANs and the SAN requires the best possible performance and the lowest possible latency. Additionally, there will be multiple wireless devices in the branch offices. Management has requested that wireless access be optimized for range and availability. Which of the following equipment options should the engineer provision to satisfy these requirements?

  A. Use a Layer 3 switch to connect the multiple VLANs and the SAN. Use multiple 2.4GHz access points, operating on different channels, to provide a connection for wireless devices.
  B. Use a managed Layer 2 switch to connect the multiple VLANs and the SAN. Use multiple 5GHz access points, operating on a single channel, to provide a connection for wireless devices.
  C. Use a bridge to connect the multiple VLANs and the SAN. Use multiple 5GHz access points, operating on different channels, to provide a connection for wireless devices.
  D. Use a router to connect the multiple VLANs and the SUN. Use a single 2.4GHz access point, operating on multiple channels, to provide a connection for wireless devices.
  A. Use a Layer 3 switch to connect the multiple VLANs and the SAN. Use multiple 2.4GHz access points, operating on different channels, to provide a connection for wireless devices.

• Question 1205:

  Exploiting a weakness in a user's wireless headset to compromise the mobile device is known as which of the following?

  A. Multiplexing
  B. Zero-day attack
  C. Smurfing
  D. Bluejacking
  D. Bluejacking

• Question 1206:

  Several users at an adjacent office building report connectivity issues after a new building was built in between the two offices. The network technician has determined the adjacent office building is connected to the main office building via an 802.11ac bridge.

  A. Device saturation
  B. Antenna type
  C. Bandwidth saturation
  D. Interference
  D. Interference

• Question 1207:

  D. Two-factor authentication
  D. Two-factor authentication

• Question 1208:

  The BEST way to secure the most vulnerable attack vector for a network is to:

  A. Update all antivirus definitions on workstations and servers.
  B. Use biometrics and SSO for authentication.
  C. Remove unneeded services running on the servers.
  D. Provide end-user awareness training to office staff.
  A. Update all antivirus definitions on workstations and servers.

• Question 1209:

  An attacker has connected to an unused VoIP phone port to gain unauthorized access to a network. This is an example of which of the following attacks?

  A. Smurf attack
  B. VLAN hopping
  C. Bluesnarfing
  D. Spear phishing
  B. VLAN hopping

  ---

  The VoIP phone port can be used to attack a VLAN on the local network. VLAN hopping is a computer security exploit, a method of attacking networked resources on a Virtual LAN (VLAN). The basic concept behind all VLAN hopping attacks is for an attacking host on a VLAN to gain access to traffic on other VLANs that would normally not be accessible.

• Question 1210:
