An EtherChannel bundle has been established between a Cisco switch and a corporate web server. The network administrator noticed that only one of the EtherChannel links is being utilized to reach the web server. What should be done on the Cisco switch to allow for better EtherChannel utilization to the corporate web server? Enable Cisco Express Forwarding to allow for more effective traffic sharing over the EtherChannel bundle. Adjust the EtherChannel load-balancing method based on destination IP addresses. Disable spanning tree on all interfaces that are participating in the EtherChannel bundle. Use link-state tracking to allow for improved load balancing of traffic upon link failure to the server. Adjust the EtherChannel load-balancing method based on source IP addresses.
Interface FastEthernet0/1 is configured as a trunk interface that allows all VLANs.
This command is configured globally:
monitor session 2 filter vlan 1 - 8, 39, 52
What is the result of the implemented command? All VLAN traffic is sent to the SPAN destination interface. Traffic from VLAN 4 is not sent to the SPAN destination interface. Filtering a trunked SPAN port effectively disables SPAN operations for all VLANs. The trunk's native VLAN must be changed to something other than VLAN 1. Traffic from VLANs 1 to 8, 39, and 52 is replicated to the SPAN destination port.
After the recent upgrade of the switching infrastructure, the network engineer notices that the port roles that were once "blocking" are now defined as "alternate" and "backup." What is the reason for this change? The new switches are using RSTP instead of legacy IEEE 802.1D STP. IEEE 802.1D STP and PortFast have been configured by default on all newly implemented Cisco Catalyst switches. The administrator has defined the switch as the root in the STP domain. The port roles have been adjusted based on the interface bandwidth and timers of the new Cisco Catalyst switches.

UDLD port is configured in aggressive mode. UDLD is enabled globally. UDLD timers are inconsistent.
After reviewing UDLD status on switch ports, an engineer notices that the current bidirectional state for an access port is "Unknown." Which statement describes what this indicates about the status of the port? The port is fully operational and no known issues are detected. The bidirectional status of "unknown" indicates that the port will go into the disabled state because it stopped receiving UDLD packets from its neighbor. UDLD moved into aggressive mode after inconsistent acknowledgements were detected. The UDLD port is placed in the "unknown" state for 5 seconds until the next UDLD packet is received on the interface.
Pilot testing of the new switching infrastructure finds that when the root port is lost, STP immediately replaces the root port with an alternative root port. Which spanning-tree technology is used to accomplish backup root port selection? PVST+ PortFast BackboneFast UplinkFast Loop Guard UDLD.

Lab Simulation - LACP with STP Sim
You work for SWITCH.com. They have just added a new switch (SwitchB) to the existing network as shown in the topology diagram.
RouterA is currently configured correctly and is providing the routing function for devices on SwitchA and SwitchB. SwitchA is currently configured correctly, but will need to be modified to support the addition of SwitchB. SwitchB has a minimal configuration. You have been tasked with competing the needed configuring of SwitchA and SwitchB. SwitchA and SwitchB use Cisco as the enable password.
Configuration Requirements for SwitchA
The VTP and STP configuration modes on SwitchA should not be modified.
- SwitchA needs to be the root switch for vlans 11, 12, 13, 21, 22 and 23. All other vlans should be left are their default values.
Configuration Requirements for SwitchB
- Vlan 21
Name: Marketing
will support two servers attached to fa0/9 and fa0/10
- Vlan 22
Name: Sales
will support two servers attached to fa0/13 and fa0/14
- Vlan 23
Name: Engineering
will support two servers attached to fa0/15 and fa0/16
- Access ports that connect to server should transition immediately to forwarding state upon detecting the connection of
a device.
- SwitchB VTP mode needs to be the same as SwitchA.
- SwitchB must operate in the same spanning tree mode as SwitchA
- No routing is to be configured on SwitchB
- Only the SVI vlan 1 is to be configured and it is to use address 192.168.1.11/24
Inter-switch Connectivity Configuration Requirements
- For operational and security reasons trunking should be unconditional and Vlans 1, 21, 22 and 23 should tagged when
traversing the trunk link.
- The two trunks between SwitchA and SwitchB need to be configured in a mode that allows for the maximum use of their
bandwidth for all vlans. This mode should be done with a non-proprietary protocol, with SwitchA controlling activation.
- Propagation of unnecessary broadcasts should be limited using manual pruning on this trunk link. SW-A (close to router)

functionality to be enabled on the switches.
For security reasons, it is necessary to restrict access to VLAN 20 in the following manner:
- Users connecting to VLAN 20 via portfO/1 on ASW1 must be authenticated before they are given access to the network.
Authentication is to be done via a Radius server:
- Radius server host: 172.120.40.46
- Radius key: rad123
- Authentication should be implemented as close to the host as possible.
- Devices on VLAN 20 are restricted to the subnet of 172.120.40.0/24.
- Packets from devices in the subnet of 172.120.40.0/24 should be allowed on VLAN 20.
- Packets from devices in any other address range should be dropped on VLAN 20.
- Filtering should be implemented as close to the serverfarm as possible.
The Radius server and application servers will be installed at a future date. You have been tasked with implementing the above access control as a pre-condition to
installing the servers. You must use the available IOS switch features. 2. Configure the Port based authentication on ASW1:
Enable AAA on the switch:
ASW1(config)# aaa new-model
The new-model keyword refers to the use of method lists, by which authentication methods and sources can be grouped or organized. Define the server along with
its secret shared password:
ASW1(config)# radius-server host 172.120.39.46 key rad123
ASW1(config)# aaa authentication dot1x default group radius
This command causes the RADIUS server defined on the switch to be used for 802.1x authentication.
Enable 802.1x on the switch:
ASW1(config)# dot1x system-auth-control
Configure Fa0/1 to use 802.1x:
ASW1(config)# interface fastEthernet 0/1
ASW1(config-if)# switchport mode access
ASW1(config-if)# dot1x port-control auto
Notice that the word “auto” will force connected PC to authenticate through the 802.1x exchange.
ASW1(config-if)# exit
ASW1# copy running-config startup-config Filter the traffic and create vlan access-map to restrict the traffic only for a range on DSW1
Define an access-list:
DSW1(config)# ip access-list standard 10 (syntax: ip access-list {standard | extended} acl-name)
DSW1(config-ext-nacl)# permit 172.120.40.0 0.0.0.255
DSW1(config-ext-nacl)# exit
Define an access-map which uses the access-list above:
DSW1(config)# vlan access-map MYACCMAP 10 (syntax: vlan access-map map_name [0-65535] )
DSW1(config-access-map)# match ip address 10 (syntax: match ip address {acl_number | acl_name})
DSW1(config-access-map)# action forward
DSW1(config-access-map)# exit
DSW1(config)# vlan access-map MYACCMAP 20
DSW1(config-access-map)# action drop (drop other networks)
DSW1(config-access-map)# exit
DSW1(config)# vlan filter MYACCMAP vlan-list 20 (syntax: vlan filter mapname vlan-list list)

Lab Simulation - MLS and EIGRP
You have been tasked with configuring multilayer SwitchC, which has a partial configuration and has been attached to RouterC as shown in the topology diagram.
You need to configure SwitchC so that Hosts H1 and H2 can successfully ping the server S1. Also SwitchC needs to be able to ping server S1.
Due to administrative restrictions and requirements you should not add/delete vlans or create trunk links. Company policies forbid the use of static or default routing.
All routes must be learned via EIGRP 65010 routing protocol.
You do not have access to RouteC. RouterC is correctly configured. No trunking has been configured on RouterC.
Routed interfaces should use the lowest host on a subnet when possible. The following subnets are available to implement this solution:
- 10.10.10.0/24
- 190.200.250.32/27
- 190.200.250.64/27
Hosts H1 and H2 are configured with the correct IP address and default gateway.
SwitchC uses Cisco as the enable password.
Routing must only be enabled for the specific subnets shown in the diagram.
Note: Due to administrative restrictions and requirements you should not add or delete VLANs, changes VLAN port assignments or create trunks. Company policies
forbid the use of static or default routing. All routes must be learned via the EIGRP routing protocol.
In real life, there are two ways to configure interVLAN routing in this case:
+ Use RouterC as a “router on a stick” and SwitchC as a pure Layer2 switch. Trunking must be established between RouterC and SwitchC.
+ Only use SwitchC for interVLAN routing without using RouterC, SwitchC should be configured as a Layer 3 switch (which supports ip routing function as a router).
No trunking requires.
The question clearly states “No trunking has been configured on RouterC” so RouterC does not contribute to interVLAN routing of hosts H1 & H2 -> SwitchC must
be configured as a Layer 3 switch with SVIs for interVLAN routing.
We should check the default gateways on H1 & H2. Click on H1 and H2 and type the “ipconfig” command to get their default gateways.
C:\>ipconfig
We will get the default gateways as follows:
Host1:
+ Default gateway: 190.200.250.33
Host2:
+ Default gateway: 190.200.250.65
Now we have enough information to configure SwitchC (notice the EIGRP AS in this case is 650)
Note: VLAN2 and VLAN3 were created and gi0/10, gi0/11 interfaces were configured as access ports so we don’t need to configure them in this sim. SwitchC# configure terminal
SwitchC(config)# int gi0/1
SwitchC(config-if)#no switchport -> without using this command, the simulator does not let you assign IP address on Gi0/1 interface.
SwitchC(config-if)# ip address 10.10.10.2 255.255.255.0 ->RouterC has used IP 10.10.10.1 so this is the lowest usable IP address.
SwitchC(config-if)# no shutdown
SwitchC(config-if)# exit
SwitchC(config)# int vlan 2
SwitchC(config-if)# ip address 190.200.250.33 255.255.255.224
SwitchC(config-if)# no shutdown
SwitchC(config-if)# int vlan 3
SwitchC(config-if)# ip address 190.200.250.65 255.255.255.224
SwitchC(config-if)# no shutdown
SwitchC(config-if)#exit
SwitchC(config)# ip routing (Notice: MLS will not work without this command)
SwitchC(config)# router eigrp 650
SwitchC(config-router)# network 10.10.10.0 0.0.0.255
SwitchC(config-router)# network 190.200.250.32 0.0.0.31
SwitchC(config-router)# network 190.200.250.64 0.0.0.31 NOTE: THE ROUTER IS CORRECTLY CONFIGURED, so you will not miss within it in the exam , also don’t modify/delete any port just do the above configuration.
Also some reports said the “no auto-summary” command can’t be used in the simulator, in fact it is not necessary because the network 190.200.0.0/16 is not used anywhere else in this topology.
In order to complete the lab , you should expect the ping to SERVER to succeed from the MLS , and from the PCs as well.
Also make sure you use the correct EIGRP AS number (in the configuration above it is 650 but it will change when you take the exam) but we are not allowed to access RouterC so the only way to find out the EIGRP AS is to look at the exhibit above. If you use wrong AS number, no neighbor relationship is formed between RouterC and SwitchC.
In fact, we are pretty sure instead of using two commands “network 190.200.250.32 0.0.0.31” and “network 190.200.250.64 0.0.0.31” we can use one simple command “network 190.200.0.0” because it is the nature of distance vector routing protocol like EIGRP: only major networks need to be advertised; even without
“no auto-summary” command the network still works correctly. But in the exam the sim is just a flash based simulator so we should use two above commands, just for sure. But after finishing the configuration, we can use “show run” command to verify, only the summarized network 190.200.0.0 is shown.

You have been asked to install and configure a new switch in a customer network. Use the console access to the existing and new switches to configure and verify correct device configuration.
You are connecting the New_Switch to the LAN topology; the switch has been partially configured and you need to complete the rest of configuration to enable PC1 communication with PC2.
Which of the configuration is correct? SERVER y CCNP So we know that the VTP domain must be CCNP. This leaves only choice D and E. We also see from the topology diagram that eth 0/0 of the new switch connects
to a PC in VLNA 100, so we know that this port must be an access port in VLAN 100, leaving only choice D as correct. Note that the VTP versions supported in this
network are 1, 2, 3 so either VTP version 2 or 3 can be configured on the new switch.
