| Which algorithm is used to create a loop free switched topology?
| |
| Spanning Tree | |
| Shortest Path First | |
| Dykstra | |
| Rapid Tree | |
| Bellman-Ford | |
| What elements will exist in a converged network with one spanning
tree? (Choose two.) | |
| one root bridge per network | |
| all non-designated ports forwarding | |
| one root port per non-root bridge | |
| multiple designated ports per segment | |
| one designated port per network | |
| Which of the following are problems that can occur in redundantly
switched networks? (Choose three.) | |
| broadcast storms | |
| corrupted ARP tables | |
| duplicate MAC addresses | |
| inaccurate routing tables | |
| multiple copies of Ethernet frames | |
| MAC address table instability | |

| How is the information contained in BPDUs used by switches?
(Choose two.) | |
| to prevent loops by sharing bridging tables between connected switches | |
| to set the duplex mode of a redundant link | |
| to determine the shortest path to the root bridge | |
| to determine which ports will forward frames as part of the spanning tree | |
| to activate looped paths throughout the network | |
| |||||||||||||
| What happens when there is a topology change on a network that
utilizes STP ? (Choose two.) | |
| User traffic is disrupted until recalculation is complete. | |
| The switch recomputes the Spanning Tree topology after the network converges. | |
| All ports are placed in learning state until convergence has occurred. | |
| A delay of up to 50 seconds is incurred for convergence of the new Spanning Tree topology. | |
| User data is forwarded while BPDUs are exchanged to recompute the topology | |
| Which of the following describe the BIDs used in a spanning tree
topology? (Choose two.) | |
| They are sent out by the root bridge only after the inferior BPDUs are sent. | |
| They consist of a bridge priority and MAC address. | |
| Only the root bridge will send out a BID. | |
| They are used by the switches in a spanning tree topology to elect the root bridge. | |
| The switch with the fastest processor will have the lowest BID. | |
| How can a network administrator influence which STP switch becomes
the root bridge? | |
| Configure the switch as the static root bridge. | |
| Change the BPDU to a higher value than that of the other switches in the network. | |
| Change the BPDU to a lower value than that of the other switches in the network. | |
| Set the switch priority to a smaller value than that of the other switches in the network. | |
| Set the switch priority to a higher value than that of the other switches in the network | |
| What characteristic of Ethernet makes a redundantly switched
network prone to loops? | |
| Routers are only able to prevent loops at Layer 3, while Ethernet exists at Layer 2. | |
| The Ethernet protocol has no TTL mechanism. | |
| Switches lack the sophisticated software required to prevent loops. | |
| Looping of frames is a reliability mechanism built in to the Ethernet protocol | |
| |||||||||||||||
| Following a link failure, when does Rapid Spanning Tree Protocol
allow point-to-point and edge type links to go to the forwarding state?
| |
| in 15 seconds | |
| never | |
| immediately | |
| in 30 seconds | |
| after 90 seconds | |
| How much time does it take for a switch port to go from the
blocking state to the forwarding state? | |
| 2 seconds | |
| 15 seconds | |
| 20 seconds | |
| 50 seconds | |
| |||||||||||||
| How does a switch forward a multicast frame through the network?
| |
| It floods it to all ports as a broadcast. | |
| It is forwarded only to ports that contain the destination address. | |
| It is sent to the port that contains the first destination address. | |
| It floods it to all ports except the one it was received on. | |
| It is dropped and not sent to any address. | |
| What is meant by "five nines" network uptime? | |
| A network should be available until 9:00 pm five days of the week. | |
| A network should be functioning 99.999% of the time. | |
| There should be five nine-port uplinks for each backbone segment. | |
| Five percent of network expenditures should address 99% of user requirements. | |
| Nothing short of 100% network uptime is acceptable in modern networks | |
| What features of the Spanning-Tree Protocol contribute to the time
it takes for a switched network to converge after a topology change occurs?
(Choose three.) | |
| the max-age timer | |
| the listening forward delay | |
| the spanning-tree hold down timer | |
| the learning forward delay | |
| the spanning-tree path cost | |
| the blocking delay | |
