Which statement about Cisco Discovery Protocol is true?
Cisco Discovery Protocol (CDP) is a Cisco-proprietary protocol. It is a protocol developed by Cisco Systems to discover information about directly connected Cisco devices. This means it is specific to Cisco equipment and not used by other vendors.
This is pure product placement
Agreed, although 'proprietary' is a swear word these days LOL
If a protocol contains the word "Cisco" in it, then it is most definitely Cisco-proprietary. gg good day Go Dodgers
No one better get this wrong ! LOL
Why not C and D? It can collect information from switch and routers and also it is a layer 2 protocol.
Not C Because the option doesn't specifically say from Cisco router, switches, etc. Not D because it does operate on the data-link layer but Not on the physical layer.
It's definitely a good trick question to trip most people up. However, option A is the first thing we learn about CDP, that it's Cisco proprietary.
Remember to choose the most correct answer. C could be correct if they were all Cisco products or capable of running CDP, although that's often not the case. D isn't correct because CDP does not operate on the physical layer.
A is correct
Option "D" is a good answer as well .
They put this one on there so no one could be totally wrong.
Cisco trying to redeem themselves after trying to trick you with the wordings on other questions
No need to look for other options. A is 100% correct, and the question did not ask to choose more than 1 answer. So you can save time.
NOOOO WAYYYY! I would never have guessed
all is correct less B
A is correct!
It can be it's not C(which looks also correct for first view) because as far as i know there is no CDP option on Cisco firewalls. I have Cisco ASA 5505 and there is no CDP and i found information there is no CDP on Cisco firewalls for security reasons. That's why it could exclude option nr C in my opinion.
Other answers are very tricky, but this is most obvious
