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. What are the 3 unlicensed frequencies?
900 MHz - 2.4Ghz - and 5-6GHz
No shut
When a client roams between Aps in different subnets
If three are missed in a row - the neighbor is considered down and the data for that neighbor is aged
2. What are the two private vlan association modes?
Promiscuous and host
If a unidirectional link is detected - the switch doesn't try to reestablish the link. ULD msgs are sent once/sec for 8 seconds - then the port is err-disabled
1 second. Backup routers can learn the interval from the master
Hold time is 3xhello. A skew time of 256ms-routerpriority)/256ms is added
3. What are the RSTP port states?
Any ports associated with an isolated vlan can reach the primary - but not any other secondary. Hosts withn an isolated vlan can't reach each other

When a wireless station transmits a frame - the receiving one must send an ack
1-65535 (def 32768) lower priority - higher probability
5. How is UDLD configured?
Usually QoS from VOIP but not PC dataa
Yes
The station must wait until the frame in progress has completed - then wait a random amount of time before transmitting
Per-port or globally for all fiber-optic ports. Can be enabled globally - but will only affect fiber ports
6. What do you need to determine to use MSTP?
Group (0-1023) priority (1-255 higher better def 100)

Low cost - high density ports - multiple scalable uplinks - vlans - traffic and protocol filtering and QoS
10. What is a null adjacency?
1 per segment
Switchpotrt nonegotiate
Enables portfast - sets the port to access and disables PAgP
Used to switch packets destined for the null interface
11. What is BDPU Guard?
Roughly 50%
If any BDUP is received on a port - it puts the port into the errdisable state

Trusted ports
RADIUS
Sets the switchport mode to access - enables portfast - and turns off channel grouping for the port
Forces the router to wait for a period of time before attempting overthrow
26. How should UDLD be configured?
Hosts associated with a secondary VLAN can communicate with ports on the primary but not with another secondary VLAN

If the switch or the powered device doesn't suport power class discovery
1-LAP gets a DHCP address - 2-LAP learns IP of available WLC - 3-LAP sends a join request to WLC and receives join reply - 4-WLC sends code image - if necessary - 5-Tunnels are created
Trunk
Yes to both
31. How does uplinkfast handle changes in topology?
Turn on port security
Notifies upstream neighbors by sending multicasts on behalf of hosts at the interval of the max update rate parameter.
Configure and enable DHCP snooping

Port
Distributed coordinion function - the use of timers to prevent wireless collisions
If any BDUP is received on a port - it puts the port into the errdisable state
