1. Question 491 · 871 in bank

   A technician is troubleshooting network connectivity from a wall jack. Readings from a multimeter indicate extremely low ohmic values instead of the rated impedance from the switchport. Which of the following is the MOST likely cause of this issue?

   • AIncorrect transceivers
   • BFaulty LED
   • CShort circuit
   • DUpgraded OS version on switch

   Show answer

   Answer: C

   Explanation

   The most likely cause of extremely low ohmic values (indicating a short circuit) instead of the rated impedance from the switchport is a short circuit within the cabling or the network equipment. Explanation: Short circuit: A short circuit occurs when there is an unintended connection between two conductors or components that are not supposed to be electrically connected. This can result in extremely low resistance (ohmic value), causing a significant current flow. In the context of network cabling, a short circuit could occur due to damaged or frayed cables, improper termination, or physical damage to the cabling infrastructure.

   A retail store recently acquired the store next door. The owners would like this store to support Gigabit Ethernet for up to 328ft (100m). Which of the following is the MOST cost-effective solution?

   • ACat5
   • BCat 5e
   • CCat 6
   • DCat 7

   Show answer

   Answer: B

   Explanation

   B. Cat 5e For a cost-effective solution that supports Gigabit Ethernet for up to 328 feet (100 meters), Cat 5e (Category 5e) is the most suitable option. Cat 5e cables are an improved version of Cat 5 cables and are capable of supporting Gigabit Ethernet up to the specified distance. While Cat 6 and Cat 7 cables offer higher performance and better shielding, they may be overkill for a typical retail store environment. Cat 5e provides a good balance between performance and cost for Gigabit Ethernet connectivity within the given distance.

   Which of the following attacks becomes more effective because of global leakages of users’ passwords?

   • ADictionary
   • BBrute-force
   • CPhishing
   • DDeauthentication

   Show answer

   Answer: A

   Explanation

   A dictionary attack uses a list of likely passwords for guessing, which often come from leaks and breaches. If a user’s password is leaked and included in this list, the attacker can potentially gain access to their account more quickly compared to a brute-force attack.

5. Question 495 · 871 in bank

   A network administration team for a medium-sized business has decided to segment the network, logically separating the finance and marketing teams in order to improve performance for both teams. The finance and marketing teams still need to access resources across the subnets, and the router has a single interface. Which of the following should the administrator configure in order to allow the traffic?

   • APort address translation
   • BClassless masking
   • CIPv6 tunneling
   • DSubinterfaces

   Show answer

   Answer: D

   Explanation

   To logically separate and segment the network for the finance and marketing teams while allowing them to access resources across subnets using a single router interface, the network administrator should configure subinterfaces on the router. Explanation: Subinterfaces: Subinterfaces are virtual interfaces created on a physical router interface, each associated with a specific VLAN or subnet. By configuring subinterfaces, the router can effectively handle traffic from multiple subnets, allowing traffic separation while still enabling communication between the finance and marketing teams. Each subinterface is associated with a different VLAN or subnet and can have its own IP address, allowing traffic to be routed between subnets while keeping them logically separated.

   A technician needs to configure a Linux computer for network monitoring. The technician has the following information: Linux computer details:

   

   Switch mirror port details:

   

   After connecting the Linux computer to the mirror port on the switch, which of the following commands should the technician run on the Linux computer?

   • Aifconfig ecth0 promisc
   • Bifconfig eth1 up
   • Cifconfig eth0 10.1.2.3
   • Difconfig eth1 hw ether A1:B2:C3:D4:E5:F6

   Show answer

   Answer: A

   Explanation

   ifconfig ecth0 promisc enables promiscuous mode which allows a network device to intercept and read each network packet that arrives in its entirety. Since the question states "Network Monitoring" this would be the best & only answer

   A network requirement calls for the network traffic of a specific department within a campus network to be monitored. The network has users from each department located in multiple buildings. Which of the following should be configured to meet this requirement? (Choose two.)

   • AMDIX
   • B802.1Q
   • CJumbo frames
   • DPort mirroring
   • EFlow control
   • FLACP

   Show answer

   Answer: BD

   Explanation

   802.1Q is a standard for VLAN tagging, which allows the network administrator to segment the network traffic of different departments into separate VLANs. This makes it easier to monitor and manage the traffic of each department. Port mirroring is a feature that allows the network administrator to copy the traffic from one or more ports to another port for analysis. By configuring port mirroring on the ports connected to the specific department, the network administrator can monitor the traffic of that department in real-time.

9. Question 499 · 871 in bank

   An employee walked into a secure facility and allowed a newly hired employee to walk in as well. Which of the following is the BEST solution to prevent this from happening again?

   • A"No tailgating" sign
   • BAwareness training
   • CEntry log
   • DCamera

   Show answer

   Answer: B

   Explanation

   A sign won't help. Entry log on itself won't help either, in this case it wouldn't prevent any second person walking in behind and it would only have the entry of the employee who walked in first. Camera records but does not prevent. Awareness training is the correct answer.

    A network administrator is assisting a user who is unable to access network services by using hostname on Host 1. Another user in the same office is able to access the network services with no issue on Host 2. The network administrator runs a command on the affected machine and the working machine and compares the following output:

    

    Which of the follow should the network administrator change to restore connectivity?

    • AChange the default gateway on Host 1 to 192.168.1.1.
    • BChange the IPv4 address on Host 2 to 192.168.0.112.
    • CReconfigure the subnet masks on both hosts.
    • DUpdate the DNS server on Host 1 to 192.168.0.53.

    Show answer

    Answer: D

    Explanation

    It's because it is unable to reach by the hostname, and DNS is what converts IP to hostnames. D is correct here, I hope this helps.
