An organization is concerned about VLAN hopping attacks. What configuration should be implemented to prevent this security threat?
- Private VLANs
- VLAN Access Control Lists (VACLs)
- VLAN Pruning
- VLAN Trunking Protocol (VTP)
Private VLANs should be implemented to prevent VLAN hopping attacks by restricting communication between certain VLANs within the same broadcast domain.
A company is experiencing frequent network issues. They need a solution to proactively monitor and identify potential problems before they affect operations. What type of system should they implement?
- SNMP
- NMS (Network Management System)
- Syslog
- SMTP
The company should implement a Network Management System (NMS) to proactively monitor and identify potential network problems before they affect operations. NMS provides comprehensive monitoring and management capabilities.
SNMP traps are used for what purpose in network management?
- Device configuration
- Real-time event notification
- Long-term event storage
- Network topology discovery
SNMP traps are used for real-time event notification in network management, allowing devices to send asynchronous alerts to a central management system.
In EIGRP, the _______ is the lowest cost path to a destination that is guaranteed to be loop-free.
- Advertised Distance
- Feasible Successor
- Reported Distance
- Successor
In EIGRP, the Feasible Successor is the lowest cost path to a destination that is guaranteed to be loop-free.
A _________ topology typically requires more cabling than other topologies but offers robustness and fault tolerance.
- Bus
- Mesh
- Ring
- Star
A Mesh topology typically requires more cabling than other topologies but offers robustness and fault tolerance. Each device is connected to every other device, providing multiple paths for data transmission.
In network management, ________ is a method that provides a centralized platform to control different network devices from various vendors.
- SNMP (Simple Network Management Protocol)
- Syslog
- ICMP (Internet Control Message Protocol)
- SMTP (Simple Mail Transfer Protocol)
SNMP (Simple Network Management Protocol) is a method used in network management to provide a centralized platform for controlling different network devices from various vendors.
The process of translating an IPv4 address into an IPv6 address is known as _______.
- Dual Stack
- NAT64 (Network Address Translation 64)
- Subnetting
- Tunneling
NAT64 (Network Address Translation 64) is the process of translating an IPv4 address into an IPv6 address, allowing communication between IPv4 and IPv6 networks.
_________ firewalls are known for their ability to filter traffic based on applications or services.
- Stateful Inspection

- Packet Filtering
Application Layer firewalls are known for their ability to filter traffic based on applications or services.
________ offers a cost-effective way to connect multiple sites over a shared network infrastructure.
- MPLS (Multiprotocol Label Switching)
- VPN (Virtual Private Network)
- DNS (Domain Name System)
- DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol)
MPLS offers a cost-effective way to connect multiple sites over a shared network infrastructure.
Implementing __________ in a network firewall involves creating security zones for more granular control.
- Proxy
- Stateful Inspection
- Zones
- Virtual LANs
Implementing security zones in a network firewall involves creating security zones for more granular control.
