Question 1170

At East Student Center, a distribution policy blocks return traffic after a stateless ACL is attached to the wrong SVI direction. What should be examined to confirm the actual failure mechanism?

  1. Examine interface VLAN mode learned MAC address and DHCP lease subnet.
  2. Cross-check allowed VLAN list tagging and egress counters at both ends.
  3. Examine untagged packet capture and both peers native VLAN configuration.
  4. Examine hit counters rule ordering and packet direction for a controlled flow.

Explanation

Correct Answer

D:

For East Student Center, the decisive mechanism is ACL direction and interface. Stateless ACL effectiveness depends on interface attachment direction and rule order. Inspect hit counters rule ordering and packet direction for a controlled flow is the most direct way to isolate this particular failure before making a change.

Incorrect Answers

A:

This is relevant to Access VLAN classification, where an access port carries untagged frames in one configured access VLAN In the East Student Center case, Those observations could be normal while the stated fault persists. The specific mechanism is stateless ACL effectiveness depends on interface attachment direction and rule order

B:

This is relevant to Tagged trunk allowlist, where a VLAN trunk forwards only permitted tagged VLANs and its native VLAN according to configuration In the East Student Center case, Those observations could be normal while the stated fault persists. The specific mechanism is stateless ACL effectiveness depends on interface attachment direction and rule order

C:

This is relevant to Native VLAN mismatch, where a native VLAN defines forwarding for untagged frames on a VLAN-aware trunk In the East Student Center case, Those observations could be normal while the stated fault persists. The specific mechanism is stateless ACL effectiveness depends on interface attachment direction and rule order

Question 1171

At Engineering Tower, a guest SSID associates successfully but never presents the required captive portal. Which diagnostic comparison would distinguish this fault from nearby mechanisms?

  1. Capture spectrum occupancy and distinguish overlapping-channel interference from co-channel reuse.
  2. Inspect co-channel AP visibility airtime utilization and contention counters.
  3. Inspect surveyed RSSI SNR channel use and roaming measurements at user positions.
  4. Inspect portal redirect RADIUS or guest authorization events and the effective client role.

Explanation

Correct Answer

D:

For Engineering Tower, the decisive mechanism is Guest portal and role. Captive portal authentication and post-login role enforcement are separate controls. Inspect portal redirect RADIUS or guest authorization events and the effective client role is the most direct way to isolate this particular failure before making a change.

Incorrect Answers

A:

This is relevant to Adjacent-channel overlap, where adjacent-channel overlap can corrupt transmissions without the coordination of co-channel sharing In the Engineering Tower case, Those observations could be normal while the stated fault persists. The specific mechanism is captive portal authentication and post-login role enforcement are separate controls

B:

This is relevant to Co-channel contention, where co-channel APs share contention airtime even if their signals are individually strong In the Engineering Tower case, Those observations could be normal while the stated fault persists. The specific mechanism is captive portal authentication and post-login role enforcement are separate controls

C:

This is relevant to RF predictive versus active survey, where predictive RF planning does not replace measured real-world attenuation and utilization In the Engineering Tower case, Those observations could be normal while the stated fault persists. The specific mechanism is captive portal authentication and post-login role enforcement are separate controls

Question 1172

At West Auditorium, an employee connects a small unmanaged switch that sends BPDUs into an edge access port. Which observation most directly isolates the likely cause before any change?

  1. Inspect neighbor LLDP-MED TLVs and phone versus PC VLAN tags.
  2. Inspect frame-size drop counters PMTU behavior and VLAN/tunnel overhead.
  3. Inspect port error-disable event and BPDU reception count.
  4. Inspect hit counters rule ordering and packet direction for a controlled flow.

Explanation

Correct Answer

C:

For West Auditorium, the decisive mechanism is BPDU guard edge ports. BPDU guard protects edge ports from becoming transit paths for unauthorized switches. Inspect port error-disable event and BPDU reception count is the most direct way to isolate this particular failure before making a change.

Incorrect Answers

A:

This is relevant to Voice VLAN LLDP-MED, where lLDP-MED can advertise voice-network attributes while the switch enforces separate VLAN policies In the West Auditorium case, Those observations could be normal while the stated fault persists. The specific mechanism is bPDU guard protects edge ports from becoming transit paths for unauthorized switches

B:

This is relevant to End-to-end MTU and frames, where a path's effective MTU is limited by the smallest supported segment and encapsulation overhead In the West Auditorium case, Those observations could be normal while the stated fault persists. The specific mechanism is bPDU guard protects edge ports from becoming transit paths for unauthorized switches

D:

This is relevant to ACL direction and interface, where stateless ACL effectiveness depends on interface attachment direction and rule order In the West Auditorium case, Those observations could be normal while the stated fault persists.

Question 1173

At West Clinic, a legacy scanner wing uses overlapping 2.4-GHz channels and fluctuating latency. Which observation most directly isolates the likely cause before any change?

  1. Inspect cluster health tunnel termination count CPU and per-member forwarding.
  2. Compare spatial signal maps channel overlap and client roaming behavior.
  3. Inspect configured channels and survey overlap at neighboring access points.
  4. Inspect portal redirect RADIUS or guest authorization events and the effective client role.

Explanation

Correct Answer

C:

For West Clinic, the decisive mechanism is 2.4 GHz channel plan. Only a small number of 2.4-GHz 20-MHz channels can avoid substantial overlap. Inspect configured channels and survey overlap at neighboring access points is the most direct way to isolate this particular failure before making a change.

Incorrect Answers

A:

This is relevant to Gateway cluster resiliency, where tunneled service resilience requires usable gateway capacity and working AP tunnels In the West Clinic case, Those observations could be normal while the stated fault persists. The specific mechanism is only a small number of 2.4-GHz 20-MHz channels can avoid substantial overlap

B:

This is relevant to AP power and cell geometry, where aP placement and transmit power affect cell coverage and roaming boundaries In the West Clinic case, Those observations could be normal while the stated fault persists. The specific mechanism is only a small number of 2.4-GHz 20-MHz channels can avoid substantial overlap

D:

This is relevant to Guest portal and role, where captive portal authentication and post-login role enforcement are separate controls In the West Clinic case, Those observations could be normal while the stated fault persists. The specific mechanism is only a small number of 2.4-GHz 20-MHz channels can avoid substantial overlap

Question 1174

  1. Examine portal redirect RADIUS or guest authorization events and the effective client role.
  2. Examine configured channels and survey overlap at neighboring access points.
  3. Examine cluster health tunnel termination count CPU and per-member forwarding.
  4. Cross-check spatial signal maps channel overlap and client roaming behavior.

Explanation

Correct Answer

B:

For Administration Block, the decisive mechanism is 2.4 GHz channel plan. Only a small number of 2.4-GHz 20-MHz channels can avoid substantial overlap. Inspect configured channels and survey overlap at neighboring access points is the most direct way to isolate this particular failure before making a change.

Incorrect Answers

A:

This is relevant to Guest portal and role, where captive portal authentication and post-login role enforcement are separate controls In the Administration Block case, Those observations could be normal while the stated fault persists. The specific mechanism is only a small number of 2.4-GHz 20-MHz channels can avoid substantial overlap

C:

This is relevant to Gateway cluster resiliency, where tunneled service resilience requires usable gateway capacity and working AP tunnels In the Administration Block case, Those observations could be normal while the stated fault persists. The specific mechanism is only a small number of 2.4-GHz 20-MHz channels can avoid substantial overlap

D:

This is relevant to AP power and cell geometry, where aP placement and transmit power affect cell coverage and roaming boundaries In the Administration Block case, Those observations could be normal while the stated fault persists.

Question 1175

At Research Hub, a device with a static address fails ARP validation after a DHCP-snooping policy upgrade. Which TWO responses together provide a direct implementation and a continuing safeguard for the stated risk? Select TWO answers.

  1. Synchronize ARP validation with trustworthy bindings or approved static exceptions for static hosts.
  2. Never expand a trunk to all VLANs merely to resolve one missing segment.
  3. Establish the switchport as an access member of the correct VLAN with matching policy.
  4. Avoid disabling all ARP protections to admit one untracked static device.

Explanation

Correct Answers

A:

This is the implementation element for the Research Hub case: Dynamic ARP inspection relies on credible address-to-MAC bindings to reject spoofing. The specific action Align ARP validation with trustworthy bindings or approved static exceptions for static hosts addresses the stated fault; the question also requires a persistent risk control.

D:

This is the continuing risk-control element for Research Hub. Avoid disabling all ARP protections to admit one untracked static device prevents a future regression or unauthorized relaxation of the repair; it complements, rather than replaces, the implementation.

Incorrect Answers

B:

This may be an ongoing precaution for Tagged trunk allowlist: A VLAN trunk forwards only permitted tagged VLANs and its native VLAN according to configuration. It does not resolve the ARP inspection dependency requirement in Research Hub and is not one of the two controls requested. The direct mechanism here is dynamic ARP inspection relies on credible address-to-MAC bindings to reject spoofing

C:

This may be a configuration step for Access VLAN classification: An access port carries untagged frames in one configured access VLAN. It does not resolve the ARP inspection dependency requirement in Research Hub and is not one of the two controls requested. The direct mechanism here is dynamic ARP inspection relies on credible address-to-MAC bindings to reject spoofing

Question 1176

At Engineering Tower, a new switchport has electrical link but the 802.1X state is unauthorized and no user VLAN is assigned. Which TWO responses together provide a direct implementation and a continuing safeguard for the stated risk? Select TWO answers.

  1. Validate compatible PoE class switch power budget and negotiated per-port allocation.
  2. Preserve approved transceiver and link-setting baselines for any future port migration.
  3. Resolve the link-layer EAPOL authentication exchange and authorization state before DHCP debugging.
  4. Retain RADIUS failover and a defined restricted fallback for the expected device class.

Explanation

Correct Answers

C:

This is the implementation element for the Engineering Tower case: 802.1X is port-based access control; IP configuration occurs after network admission. The specific action Resolve the link-layer EAPOL authentication exchange and authorization state before DHCP debugging addresses the stated fault; the question also requires a persistent risk control.

D:

This is the continuing risk-control element for Engineering Tower. Retain RADIUS failover and a defined restricted fallback for the expected device class prevents a future regression or unauthorized relaxation of the repair; it complements, rather than replaces, the implementation.

Incorrect Answers

A:

This may be a configuration step for PoE power negotiation: 802.3af at and bt power classes and the switch budget constrain device operation. It does not resolve the 802.1X EAPOL versus IP service requirement in Engineering Tower and is not one of the two controls requested. The direct mechanism here is 802.1X is port-based access control; IP configuration occurs after network admission

B:

This may be an ongoing precaution for Ethernet negotiation and duplex: 802.3 physical link negotiation precedes Layer 2 and Layer 3 service validation. It does not resolve the 802.1X EAPOL versus IP service requirement in Engineering Tower and is not one of the two controls requested. The direct mechanism here is 802.1X is port-based access control; IP configuration occurs after network admission

Question 1177

At Transit Operations Center, a hybrid office needs per-client wired authentication on user desk ports. Which test best differentiates real success from a merely healthy status light?

  1. Preserve authenticated sessions through the expected timer cycle in a controlled test.
  2. Demonstrate permitted NOC commands work and prohibited configuration commands fail.
  3. Connect a managed laptop and verify authorized access only after authentication.
  4. Correlate test connect disconnect events to server accounting logs.

Explanation

Correct Answer

C:

For Transit Operations Center, the decisive mechanism is Wired 802.1X port access. 802.1X authorizes port traffic through EAPOL and the authentication server decision. Connect a managed laptop and verify authorized access only after authentication supplies measurable, case-relevant evidence that the intended behavior actually occurs.

Incorrect Answers

A:

This is relevant to Supplicant reauthentication intervals, where wired reauthentication intervals can affect session continuity if handshake timing is inadequate In the Transit Operations Center case, That test could pass while the actual user-facing requirement still fails. The specific mechanism is 802.1X authorizes port traffic through EAPOL and the authentication server decision

B:

This is relevant to TACACS+ admin AAA distinction, where administrative command authorization and client-port 802.1X solve different AAA problems In the Transit Operations Center case, That test could pass while the actual user-facing requirement still fails. The specific mechanism is 802.1X authorizes port traffic through EAPOL and the authentication server decision

D:

This is relevant to RADIUS accounting for audit, where aAA accounting tracks session use separately from authentication and authorization In the Transit Operations Center case, That test could pass while the actual user-facing requirement still fails. The specific mechanism is 802.1X authorizes port traffic through EAPOL and the authentication server decision

Question 1178

At North Library, a visitor role reaches restricted servers despite being assigned a guest policy. What operational rule should remain in place for later changes?

  1. Monitor expiration windows and keep controlled rollback trust transitions.
  2. Audit implicit permits and policy defaults after group membership changes.
  3. Retain least-privilege default roles and audit policy ordering.
  4. Secure log integrity retention and access according to data policy.

Explanation

Correct Answer

C:

For North Library, the decisive mechanism is ClearPass role-based enforcement. ClearPass decides authorization outcomes while network devices enforce assigned policy. Keep least-privilege default roles and audit policy ordering is an enduring limitation on the operational risk, not simply a one-time passing test.

Incorrect Answers

A:

This is relevant to Certificate renewal workflow, where authentication availability depends on valid certificate lifecycle at both ends In the North Library case, A precaution for another failure mode is not the enduring boundary needed here. The specific mechanism is clearPass decides authorization outcomes while network devices enforce assigned policy

B:

This is relevant to Campus microsegmentation, where role-based segmentation can limit lateral flows beyond simple VLAN separation In the North Library case, A precaution for another failure mode is not the enduring boundary needed here. The specific mechanism is clearPass decides authorization outcomes while network devices enforce assigned policy

D:

This is relevant to RADIUS accounting traceability, where authentication and accounting provide different information and require separate configuration In the North Library case, A precaution for another failure mode is not the enduring boundary needed here. The specific mechanism is clearPass decides authorization outcomes while network devices enforce assigned policy

Question 1179

At Engineering Tower, a corridor shows acceptable signal strength but voice calls break amid elevated background noise. Which TWO responses together provide a direct implementation and a continuing safeguard for the stated risk? Select TWO answers.

  1. Plan gateway redundancy and capacity for tunneled WLAN clients.
  2. Apply supported clustered gateway configuration with capacity and software-version compatibility.
  3. Track both RF signal and noise as part of acceptance tests.
  4. Investigate noise/interference and target adequate SNR rather than raising AP power blindly.

Explanation

Correct Answers

C:

This is the continuing risk-control element for Engineering Tower. Track both RF signal and noise as part of acceptance tests prevents a future regression or unauthorized relaxation of the repair; it complements, rather than replaces, the implementation.

D:

This is the implementation element for the Engineering Tower case: SNR accounts for interference floor; RSSI alone does not predict useful wireless throughput. The specific action Investigate noise/interference and target adequate SNR rather than raising AP power blindly addresses the stated fault; the question also requires a persistent risk control.

Incorrect Answers

A:

This may be an ongoing precaution for AOS 10 tunnel forwarding: Tunnel forwarding places client data on the gateway datapath rather than a local bridged VLAN. It does not resolve the RSSI and SNR differentiation requirement in Engineering Tower and is not one of the two controls requested. The direct mechanism here is sNR accounts for interference floor; RSSI alone does not predict useful wireless throughput

B:

This may be a configuration step for Gateway cluster resiliency: Tunneled service resilience requires usable gateway capacity and working AP tunnels. It does not resolve the RSSI and SNR differentiation requirement in Engineering Tower and is not one of the two controls requested. The direct mechanism here is sNR accounts for interference floor; RSSI alone does not predict useful wireless throughput

Question 1180

At Convention Center, an access network changes authentication timeout settings but client EAP exchanges exceed them. Which check provides the most useful information for fixing this deployment?

  1. Examine server status transport timeouts and alternate server selection.
  2. Examine EAPOL handshake switch authentication state and RADIUS responses.
  3. Examine EAP exchanges identity retries and reauthentication failure timestamps.
  4. Examine Access-Accept AV pairs and effective port role or VLAN assignment.

Explanation

Correct Answer

C:

For Convention Center, the decisive mechanism is Supplicant reauthentication intervals. Wired reauthentication intervals can affect session continuity if handshake timing is inadequate. Inspect EAP exchanges identity retries and reauthentication failure timestamps is the most direct way to isolate this particular failure before making a change.

Incorrect Answers

A:

This is relevant to RADIUS authorization timeout, where authentication server reachability and retry order influence network-admission decisions In the Convention Center case, Those observations could be normal while the stated fault persists. The specific mechanism is wired reauthentication intervals can affect session continuity if handshake timing is inadequate

B:

This is relevant to Wired 802.1X port access, where 802.1X authorizes port traffic through EAPOL and the authentication server decision In the Convention Center case, Those observations could be normal while the stated fault persists. The specific mechanism is wired reauthentication intervals can affect session continuity if handshake timing is inadequate

D:

This is relevant to ClearPass enforcement attributes, where an Access-Accept alone does not guarantee the intended authorization role was applied In the Convention Center case, Those observations could be normal while the stated fault persists. The specific mechanism is wired reauthentication intervals can affect session continuity if handshake timing is inadequate
