Cisco 200-301 Practice Test 8

Question 70

A host uses 172.17.58.242/26 as its IP address and needs to ARP for its gateway. Which proposed gateway is in the same /26 and is an ordinary host?

  1. 172.17.58.193.
  2. 172.17.58.191.
  3. 172.17.58.192.
  4. 172.17.59.1.

Explanation

Correct Answer

A:

With /26, addresses .192 through .255 form one subnet, with .192 network and .255 broadcast. Both .242 and .193 are host values in that shared block, so the endpoint can resolve the gateway directly over the local VLAN. A gateway in the preceding /26 would need routing and is not directly on-link.

Incorrect Answers

B:

The .191 address ends the previous /26 block .128–.191 and is its broadcast. It is not an eligible gateway on the host’s .192/26 subnet.

C:

The .192 address begins the required subnet but is the network identifier, not a conventional usable interface address. The gateway must use an eligible host ID.

D:

That address is outside the 172.17.58.192/26 block and cannot be directly ARPed on the stated subnet. It would require a separate network path.

Question 71

A small point-to-point routed subnet is 172.24.35.48/30. Which address is the highest conventional usable host on this link?

  1. 172.24.35.51.
  2. 172.24.35.50.
  3. 172.24.35.52.
  4. 172.24.35.48.

Explanation

Correct Answer

B:

The /30 block holds four addresses: .48 network, .49 and .50 usable endpoints, and .51 directed broadcast. The highest conventional host is therefore .50, not the top address of the block. This is useful when configuring two router interfaces with predictable endpoints.

Incorrect Answers

A:

This is the all-host-bits-one directed broadcast address in the /30, not the second usable endpoint. The highest ordinary host is one less.

C:

The .52 address begins the next /30 subnet and cannot be used as an endpoint of .48/30. It crosses the configured link boundary.

D:

This is the network identifier with host bits zero. Ordinary /30 endpoints use the two interior values rather than the subnet ID.

Question 72

An engineer is choosing an address for an internal Retail Hub VLAN that must use RFC 1918 private IPv4 space. Which candidate is in one of the three private address ranges?

  1. 169.254.20.8
  2. 192.169.1.9
  3. 198.51.100.10
  4. 192.168.50.9

Explanation

Correct Answer

D:

192.168.50.9 is inside an RFC 1918 private range (10/8, 172.16/12, or 192.168/16). Such addresses are intended for internal addressing and are not globally routed on the public Internet by default. Their use does not itself configure NAT; if clients need ordinary public Internet connectivity, routing and translation policies must still be designed separately.

Incorrect Answers

A:

169.254.20.8 is not inside any of the three RFC 1918 private ranges. Other globally allocated or specially designated addresses must not be treated as interchangeable private LAN space just because the prefix looks familiar.

B:

192.169.1.9 is outside RFC 1918, even though it may look similar to internal-use addresses. The problem asks specifically for the defined private IPv4 blocks, not any address that could be configured in an isolated lab.

C:

198.51.100.10 belongs to a different address allocation or special-use block rather than RFC 1918. Only the exact 10.0.0.0/8, 172.16.0.0/12, and 192.168.0.0/16 ranges meet this requested classification.

Question 73

A company is migrating an internal RFC 1918 address plan. A proposed branch subnet is 172.32.10.0/24; another is 172.31.10.0/24. Which statement correctly identifies the valid private option?

  1. Any subnet starting with 172 is private because the first octet alone determines class B eligibility.
  2. 172.32.10.0/24 is private because the second octet is greater than 16.
  3. Neither option is private because only 10.0.0.0/8 may be used inside an organization.
  4. 172.31.10.0/24 belongs to the RFC 1918 172.16.0.0/12 private block; 172.32.10.0/24 does not.

Explanation

Correct Answer

D:

The private 172/12 allocation starts at 172.16.0.0 and ends at 172.31.255.255. An address beginning with 172 does not automatically qualify as privately reserved. The 172.31 subnet fits the organization’s private-only requirement; 172.32 is outside that block and must not be selected solely on a mistaken 172-prefix assumption.

Incorrect Answers

A:

Historical classful labels do not define the RFC 1918 reservation. The precise 172.16.0.0/12 range determines whether an address is private.

B:

The limit is not an open-ended lower bound. Only second octets 16 through 31 are included in the 172.16/12 allocation.

C:

RFC 1918 reserves 10/8, 172.16/12 and 192.168/16. Private internal networks may legitimately use subnet space from any of those blocks.

Question 74

A lab workstation that should receive DHCP has self-assigned IPv4 address 169.254.44.8/16 and cannot reach a different subnet. The team claims 169.254/16 is simply another RFC 1918 routed private network. What should the engineer conclude?

  1. The address is IPv4 link-local self-configuration, not one of the RFC 1918 private blocks; investigate DHCP and gateway configuration.
  2. Add a default route in the Internet core for every 169.254/16 workstation.
  3. Keep the address and enable STP PortFast to turn it into a globally routable private lease.
  4. Treat 169.254/16 as the same RFC 1918 reservation as 192.168.0.0/16.

Explanation

Correct Answer

A:

IPv4 169.254.0.0/16 is reserved for link-local autoconfiguration when normal address assignment is absent. It is different from the three private address blocks in RFC 1918 and is not meant to be forwarded by ordinary routers. The workstation’s symptom points to lease acquisition or approved static configuration, not a missing public route.

Incorrect Answers

B:

Link-local IPv4 traffic is restricted to the local link by design. Installing Internet routes for those addresses is not the correct cure for a host that missed DHCP service.

C:

PortFast addresses Layer 2 startup forwarding and cannot change the meaning of an IPv4 address range. Link-local address scope remains restricted.

D:

Both are non-publicly routable in common designs, but they have different standards-based purposes. RFC 1918 is for private organizational addressing, not DHCP fallback link-local assignment.

Question 75

An ISP provides a customer with a 100.70.4.0/24 address behind carrier-grade NAT. A junior administrator wants to document the allocation as RFC 1918 space because it is not ordinary public globally routable addressing. What classification is more precise?

  1. 100.70.4.0/24 is a normal RFC 1918 subnet because every 100.x.x.x address is private.
  2. 100.70.4.0/24 falls inside 100.64.0.0/10 shared address space, which is distinct from RFC 1918 private-use blocks.
  3. 100.70.4.0/24 is IPv4 link-local because it is assigned behind a NAT device.
  4. 100.70.4.0/24 is a multicast address range that cannot identify unicast endpoints.

Explanation

Correct Answer

B:

The 100.64.0.0/10 range is reserved as shared address space, commonly used between carriers and subscribers for carrier-grade NAT. RFC 1918 instead defines 10/8, 172.16/12 and 192.168/16. Both have special reachability considerations, but correct inventory classification matters when designing overlapping address boundaries and NAT.

Incorrect Answers

A:

RFC 1918 does not include a 100/8 reservation. The more specific shared address allocation 100.64/10 describes this provider-facing range.

C:

IPv4 link-local is 169.254/16, unrelated to this shared-carrier block. NAT placement alone does not convert an address into a link-local identifier.

D:

IPv4 multicast begins at 224.0.0.0/4. Addresses inside 100.64/10 can identify customer/provider interfaces within their intended shared-address scope.

Question 76

A security engineer proposes using 192.0.2.0/24 as a permanent internal addressing block because it appears in network configuration examples. The requirement is to use an address space reserved for private organizational networks. Which choice is standards-appropriate?

  1. Use an RFC 1918 allocation such as 192.168.80.0/24 rather than documentation-only 192.0.2.0/24.
  2. 192.0.2.0/24 is RFC 1918 because it starts with 192, just like 192.168.0.0/16.
  3. Any address from 224.0.0.0/4 is suitable for unicast private workstation interfaces.
  4. Use 127.0.0.0/8 for routed internal LAN clients because loopback traffic never reaches the public Internet.

Explanation

Correct Answer

A:

RFC 1918 reserves specific ranges for private use, including 192.168.0.0/16. The 192.0.2.0/24 TEST-NET-1 prefix is reserved for examples and documentation, not for ordinary production endpoint deployment. Selecting the correct reservation type helps prevent conflicts with special-use addressing and keeps the internal design aligned with its private-use requirement.

Incorrect Answers

B:

Private-use status depends on the full reserved prefix, not merely its first octet. TEST-NET-1 has a different registered purpose from 192.168/16.

C:

The 224/4 block is IPv4 multicast space and is not an ordinary host unicast private range. It cannot be treated as a replacement for RFC 1918 addressing.

D:

The 127/8 range is dedicated to local loopback, not ordinary assigned LAN interfaces across multiple hosts. It is not an RFC 1918 routed private subnet.

Question 77

An IPv6 router-to-router Ethernet connection needs a local next-hop address for a static route. The peer uses `fe80::2` on that link. Which detail is normally required because link-local addresses are not unique across interfaces?

  1. Assign the link-local next-hop address as the switch native VLAN.
  2. Configure only an IPv4 dotted-decimal subnet mask for `fe80::2`.
  3. Identify the outgoing interface together with the IPv6 link-local next-hop address.
  4. Treat `fe80::2` as an Internet-wide unique next hop and omit link context.

Explanation

Correct Answer

C:

An IPv6 link-local address is scoped to an individual link; routers may see the same textual address on unrelated interfaces. A static route using a link-local next hop therefore needs an egress interface to disambiguate the neighbor. A global address next hop can often be resolved by routing differently.

Incorrect Answers

A:

A native VLAN is an 802.1Q tagging convention, not an IPv6 next-hop or interface identifier. It cannot resolve link-local scope ambiguity.

B:

IPv4 netmasks cannot locate an IPv6 link-local neighbor or specify an IPv6 routing interface. The address-family syntax and link scope are different.

D:

Link-local addresses are not globally unique and may repeat on separate router ports. The exit interface identifies where the neighbor can be reached.

Question 78

An IPv6 host reports address `ff02::1` in a packet capture. A colleague claims it is a global unicast prefix that a router will deliver anywhere on the Internet. Which interpretation is accurate?

  1. `ff02::1` is the link-local-scope all-nodes IPv6 multicast group, not a routable global unicast address.
  2. It is a public IPv6 /128 assigned to the local router’s loopback interface.
  3. It is an RFC 4193 unique local address valid for private organizational unicast routing.
  4. It is the unspecified address and cannot appear as a multicast destination.

Explanation

Correct Answer

A:

IPv6 multicast destinations begin with `ff`, and the scope nibble in `ff02` indicates link-local scope. `ff02::1` addresses all IPv6 nodes on the local link for applicable multicast traffic. Routers do not forward this group as arbitrary global unicast traffic, so the colleague’s proposed routing interpretation is incorrect.

Incorrect Answers

B:

The IPv6 loopback address is `::1`, not `ff02::1`. The latter is a link-local multicast group and may be joined by multiple nodes.

C:

Unique local unicast addresses are normally from `fc00::/7`, not `ff00::/8`. The `ff` prefix identifies multicast semantics and scope.

D:

The unspecified address is `::`, consisting of all zero bits. `ff02::1` has a specific standardized multicast destination role.

Question 79

An IPv6-enabled router interface receives a new /64 prefix and must be configured with `2001:db8:100:7::1/64`. What address command belongs under the interface?

  1. `ipv6 route 2001:db8:100:7::/64 2001:db8:100:7::1`.
  2. `ip address 2001:db8:100:7::1 255.255.255.0`.
  3. `ipv6 address 2001:db8:100:7::1/64`.
  4. `switchport access vlan 64`.

Explanation

Correct Answer

C:

On an IOS XE interface, the `ipv6 address` command assigns the stated IPv6 unicast address and prefix length. The /64 defines the on-link network prefix for that interface. The router must also support IPv6 forwarding where routing is required, but changing an IPv4 address does not configure the given IPv6 interface.

Incorrect Answers

A:

An IPv6 static route supplies a next-hop forwarding decision. It is not an interface address assignment and can create an invalid self-referential route here.

B:

The `ip address` form with a dotted-decimal mask configures IPv4, not the IPv6 colon-delimited address requested. IOS uses IPv6-specific address syntax.

D:

An access VLAN changes Ethernet frame classification and has no relationship to the IPv6 /64 prefix length. It does not assign IPv6 unicast interface addresses.

Question 80

A router interface has IPv6 address 2001:db8:0102:0022::52/64. Which network prefix correctly represents the directly connected IPv6 /64, with host interface-ID bits excluded?

  1. 2001:db8:0102:0023::/64
  2. 2001:db8:0102:0022:1::/80
  3. 2001:db8:0103:0022::/64
  4. 2001:db8:0102:0022::/64

Explanation

Correct Answer

D:

With an IPv6 /64, the first four 16-bit hextets form the network prefix and the final 64 bits are the interface identifier. Clearing those interface-ID bits in 2001:db8:0102:0022::52 produces 2001:db8:0102:0022::/64. That address represents this connected subnet; it is not the individual host address or a prefix from a neighboring /64.

Incorrect Answers

A:

2001:db8:0102:0023::/64 changes the fourth hextet, which is inside the /64 network portion of 2001:db8:0102:0022::52. It describes a neighboring IPv6 subnet rather than the connected prefix of the indicated interface.

B:

2001:db8:0102:0022:1::/80 is an /80 representation, a different prefix length and network boundary from the given /64. The question requires the connected /64 exactly rather than an arbitrary narrower range within it.

C:

2001:db8:0103:0022::/64 changes the third hextet, also part of the fixed /64 network identifier. IPv6 network matching cannot discard that difference simply because both addresses start with the documentation prefix 2001:db8.
