Which command would you use on a switch to enable management from a remote network?
ip default-gateway 192.168.10.185
What does the "ip address dhcp" command allow you to do?
Configure the switch to obtain an IP address from a DHCP server.
You are configuring a switch so that you can manage it using PuTTY from the same network segment as the switch. On the switch, you enter the following commands:

switch#config terminal
switch(config)#interface vlan 1
switch(config-if)#ip address 192.168.1.10 255.255.255.0

Will this configuration work?
No, the "no shutdown" command needs to be entered.
A switch receives a frame addressed to the MAC address FF:FF:FF:FF:FF:FF.
What will the switch do with the frame?
Send it out all ports except for the port it was received on.
You need to keep users in all other departments from accessing the servers used by the finance department.

Which of the following technologies should you use to logically isolate the network?
VLANs
Which of the following are reasons to configure VLANs on a switch as opposed to using switches without VLANs? (Select two.)
Increased security
Increased number of broadcast domains
Which of the following statements describe how VLANs affect broadcast traffic within an internetwork? (Select two.)
Devices on the same VLAN have the same subnet address.
Broadcast traffic is transmitted only within a VLAN.
Which of the following are true regarding using multiple VLANs on a single switch? (Select two.)
The number of collision domains remains the same.
The number of broadcast domains increases.
You can create a virtual LAN using which of the following?
Switch
You manage a network that uses a single switch. All ports within your building connect through the single switch.
In the lobby of your building are three RJ45 ports connected to the switch. You want to allow visitors to plug into these ports to gain internet access, but they should not have access to any other devices on your private network. Employees connected throughout the rest of your building should have both private and internet access.
Which feature should you implement?
VLANs
You want to reduce collisions by creating separate collision domains and virtual LANs. Which of the following devices should you choose?SwitchYour company is a small start-up that has leased office space in a building shared by other businesses. All businesses share a common network infrastructure. A single switch connects all devices in the building to the router that provides internet access. You would like to make sure that your computers are isolated from computers used by other companies. Which feature should you request to have implemented?VLANWhich of the following best describes the concept of a VLAN?Devices on the same network logically grouped as if they were on separate networks.Which of the following connectivity hardware is used to create a VLAN?SwitchWhen you configure VLANs on a switch, which of the following is used to identify a device's VLAN membership?Switch portYou manage a network with two switches. The switches are connected together through their Gigabit Ethernet uplink ports. You define VLAN 1 and VLAN 2 on each switch. A device on the first switch in VLAN 1 needs to communicate with a device on the same switch which is in VLAN 2. What should you configure so that the two devices can communicate?RoutingYou run a small network for your business that has a single router connected to the internet and a single switch. You keep sensitive documents on a computer that you would like to keep isolated from other computers on the network. Other hosts on the network should not be able to communicate with this computer through the switch, but you still need to access the network through the computer. Which of the following should you use in this situation?VLANWhich of the following benefits apply only to creating VLANs with switches and not to segmenting the network with regular switches?You can create multiple broadcast domains.Which of the following statements accurately describes a VLAN ID?Switches append a VLAN ID to the header of each frame to identify the virtual network it belongs to.You manage a single subnet with three switches. The switches are connected to provide redundant paths between the switches. Which feature allows the switches to pass VLAN traffic between the switches?TrunkingYou manage a network with two switches. The switches are connected together through their Gigabit Ethernet uplink ports. You define VLAN 1 and VLAN 2 on each switch. A device on the first switch in VLAN 1 needs to communicate with a device on the second switch in VLAN 1. What should you configure to allow communication between these two devices through the switches?TrunkingWhen configuring VLANs on a switch, what type of switch ports are members of all VLANs defined on the switch?Trunk portsYou manage a single subnet with three switches. The switches are connected to provide redundant paths between the switches. Which feature prevents switching loops and ensures there is only a single active path between any two switches?Spanning treeWhich of the following solutions would you implement to eliminate switching loops?Spanning treeWhich problem does the spanning tree protocol prevent?Switching loops from developing when redundant paths are implemented between switches.Which statements accurately describe the port states of both bridges and switches? (Select two.)In the learning state, the MAC address table can be populated, but frames are not forwarded. Ports in a blocked state still receive BPDUs.A switch running STP is classified as a backup bridge. What state is it in?BlockingSwitches running STP are in the process of exchanging BPDUs and redefining their roles. Which port state are the switches currently in?ListeningA switch is running STP is in the learning state. A message destined for a different network segment arrives at the switch. Which of the following best describes what the switch will do?It uses the source MAC address and network segment information to build its bridge database, but does not forward the message.A switch running STP is in the listening state. A message destined for a different network segment arrives at the switch. Which of the following best describes what the switch will do?It does not record address or segment information. It does not forward the message.You need to configure spanning tree on a Cisco switch. You'd like to use a protocol that conforms to the 802.1w standards. Which protocol should you use?Rapid PVST+Which of the following features dynamically places switch ports in blocking or forwarding states?Spanning treeYou manage a network that uses multiple switches. You want to provide multiple paths between switches so that if one link goes down, an alternate path is available. Which feature should your switch support?Spanning treeSelect the statement that best describes a broadcast storm.A broadcast storm occurs when there are so many broadcast messages on the network that they approach or exceed the network bandwidth.You run a small network for your business that has a single router connected to the internet and a single switch. You keep sensitive documents on a computer that you would like to keep isolated from other computers on the network. Other hosts on the network should not be able to communicate with this computer through the switch, but you still need to access the network through the computer. What should you use for this situation?VLANYou manage a network with multiple switches. You find that your switches are experiencing heavy broadcast storms. Which of the following will help reduce the effects of a broadcast storm?Enable spanning tree on the switchesWhile viewing the status of the interfaces on a Cisco switch, you see an abnormally large number of oversized Ethernet frames being received on one interface.
