Instructions:
Answer 50 questions in 15 minutes.
If you are not ready to take this test, you can
study here
.
Match each statement with the correct term.
Don't refresh. All questions and answers are randomly picked and ordered every time you load a test.
This is a study tool. The 3 wrong answers for each question are randomly chosen from answers to other questions. So, you might find at times the answers obvious, but you will see it re-enforces your understanding as you take the test each time.
1. RSTP edge port
If a unidirectional link is detected - the port continues normally - but the port is marked as undetermined and a syslog is generated
The frame tag includes a 3 bit COS value from 0 (low) to 7 (high). Native vlans are untagged so no COS
Only a single host connects . If one BDPU is received - it is no longer an edge port
All L2 connectivity should be contained within the access layer.
2. What happens when switches receive a configuration BDPU?
Single instance of STP for all VLANs. BDPUs are sent over trunks using the native VLAN with untagged frames. Dot1q based
They shorten their bridge table aging times from default (300sec) to the fowarding delay (15 sec)
Matching SSID - compatible data rate - authentication credentials
MAC of the end device
3. How often are CAM table entries aged?
