Cisco CCNA, CCENT, and CCNP Practice Questions – Static Default Routes, Wildcard Masks, And More
By [http://ezinearticles.com/?expert=Chris_Bryant]Chris Bryant

Let’s test your knowledge of important Cisco certification exam topics such as static default routes, access lists, and more!

CCENT Certification:

What command will create a default static route with a next-hop IP address of 30.1.1.1?

Answer: ip route 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 30.1.1.1

We could also specify the local exit interface at the end of that command.

CCNA Certification:

In a Cisco ACL, what can be replaced with the word “any”?

A. A subnet mask of 255.255.255.255.

B. A subnet mask of 0.0.0.0.

C. A wildcard mask of 255.255.255.255.

D. A wildcard mask of 0.0.0.0.

Answer: C.

CCNP Certification / BSCI Exam:

The command summary-address is designed for use on what OSPF router type(s)?

A. ASBRs

B. ABRs

C. Backbone routers

D. Total stub routers

E. Stub routers

Answer: A. The command “summary-address” is designed for use only on an ASBR. This command is used to summarize routes that are being redistributed into OSPF.

CCNP Certification / BCMSN Exam:

A Cisco switchport is configured with Root Guard. A superior BPDU is received on that port. What will happen?

A. Nothing.

B. The port goes into root-inconsistent state.

C. The port goes into err-disabled state.

D. The port goes into blocking state.

Answer: B. When a superior BPDU is received on a port protected with Root Guard, the port will be placed into root-inconsistent state. This will prevent a switch found off that port from becoming the root bridge.

CCNP Certification / ISCW Exam:

Short answer: What IP protocol number does ESP use?

Answer: ESP uses IP protocol number 50.

CCNP Certification / ONT Exam:

Which of the following phrases does NOT apply to WPA2?

A. dynamically generated keys

B. encryption

C. intrusion detection

D. one-way authentication

Answer: D. WPA2 uses mutual authentication, not one-way authentication.

Cisco CCNA, CCNP, and CCNET Practice Questions – Etherchannels, BGP, Queuing, And More!

Cisco CCNA, CCNP, and CCNET Practice Questions – Etherchannels, BGP, Queuing, And More!
By [http://ezinearticles.com/?expert=Chris_Bryant]Chris Bryant

From the basics of router hardware to configuring and troubleshooting BGP, let’s test your knowledge of Cisco certification exam topics!

CCENT Certification:

You’ve just run the show interface ethernet0 command and you see the interface is “administratively down”. What causes that?

Answer: The interface is shut down. Just run no shutdown on the interface to open it.  When the interface shows as simply “down”, that indicates an issue with the cable, or more likely the interface on the other end of the connection is not open.

The interface can be physically up and logically down, and that’s indicated by the output of show interface displaying the message “serialx is up, line protocol is down”.  If the line protocol is down, that indicates the lack of a keep alive or a timing issue, such as a missing clockrate command.

CCNA Certification:

What’s the broadcast address for a frame?

Answer: The all-Fs MAC address, ff-ff-ff-ff-ff-ff (or FF-FF-FF-FF-FF-FF, as there’s no difference between upper and lower case in hexadecimal numbering.)

CCNP Certification / BSCI Exam:

What port number does BGP use to create and maintain adjacencies?

Answer: TCP port 179. Don’t block that one with an ACL! :)

CCNP Certification / BCMSN Exam:

What’s the maximum number of physical channels that can be placed into an Etherchannel?

Answer: Eight.

CCNP Certification / ONT Exam:

What’s the full command for doubling the capacity of the default queue when Priority Queuing is in use?

Answer: Assuming we’re using list 1:

priority-list 1 queue-limit 20 40 120 80.

From left to right, we’re defining the limit for the high, medium, normal, and low-priority queues. The default queue is the normal-priority queue, and the default capacity for that queue is 60 packets. Even though we’re only changing one value, the IOS will make us list a value for all four queues.

CCNA And CCENT Exam:

Short answer: In the MAC address aa-bb-cc-11-22-33, what portion is the OUI?

Answer: aa-bb-cc. The first half of the MAC address is the Organizationally Unique Identifier.

A. origin

B. next-hop

C. LOCAL_PREF

D. AS_PATH

E. aggregator

F. atomic aggregate

G. community

H. MED

Answer: E, G. Community and aggregator are the two transitive optional BGP attributes, “transitive” meaning that their values will be carried from one AS to another. MED is the only optional non-transitive attribute.

CCNP Certification / BCMSN Exam:

Short answer: Briefly describe the purpose and operation of DHCP Snooping.

Answer: DHCP Snooping is a method of detecting rogue DHCP servers and minimizing or eliminating their impact on the network. DHCP Snooping determines whether a DHCP device is trusted or untrusted, and only DHCP messages from trusted devices are passed through the switch.

CCNP Certification / ISCW Exam:

Short answer: What term is used to describe a router with some interfaces in a “normal” IP network, and other interfaces in a Multiprotocol Label Switching network?
