Question 1 of 103

Core# configure terminal -

Core(config)# vrf Green -

Core(config-vrf)# exit -
Core(config)#

Core(config)# interface vlan 50 -
Core(config-if-vlan)# ?
Given the configuration on the CORE switch shown above, what command would follow to assign the switched virtual interface (SVI) vlan 50 to the VRF created?
Answer

Suggested Answer

The suggested answer is C.

Given the typical syntax for assigning an interface or VLAN to a VRF in many network device operating systems, the correct command would be 'ip vrf forwarding Green'. This command assigns the interface to the VRF named Green and is the standard way for many systems, including Cisco and related CLI environments.

The suggested answer is B.

The static IP address configured for the local interface is 10.177.213.75. To determine the binary value of the third octet, we need to convert 177 to binary. The binary conversion of 177 is 10110001, which corresponds to answer B.

Question 4 of 103

What is the correct description of a Multi-Layer Switch?
Answer

Suggested Answer

The suggested answer is C.

A Multi-Layer Switch possesses all the functionality of a Layer 2 switch and most of the functionality of a Layer 3 router. This means it can perform typical Layer 2 switching tasks, such as MAC address learning and switching, as well as Layer 3 tasks, such as IP address routing. This gives Multi-Layer Switches a versatile role in network management, allowing them to efficiently handle both switching and routing tasks.
