CCNA VTP SIM Question

February 21st, 2014 Go to comments

Question

This task requires you to use the CLI of Sw-AC3 to answer five multiple-choice questions. This does not require any configuration.

To answer the multiple-choice questions, click on the numbered boxes in the right panel.

ccna_vtp_sim_question

There are five multiple-choice questions with this task. Be sure to answer all five questions before leaving this item.

Notice: All the images in this VTP LAB are used for demonstration only, you will see slightly different images in the real CCNA exam. You can download this sim to practice here (but notice that this sim is not perfect, only for practicing purpose): http://www.9tut.com/download/9tut.com_CCNA_vtp_sim.pka

If you are not sure about VTP, please read my VTP Tutorial

Note: In this VTP sim, you have to answer 5 questions. After answering the first question, click on the number boxes to move to other questions. If you click “Next” at the first question, you will lose points for 4 remaining questions.

Question 1

What interface did Sw-AC3 associate with source MAC address 0010.5a0c.ffba ?

a) Fa0/1

b) Fa0/3

c) Fa0/6

d) Fa0/8

e) Fa0/9

f) Fa0/12

Answer: Fa 0/8

Explanation: to find out which interface associated with a given MAC address, use the show mac-address-table command. It shows the learned MAC addresses and their associated interfaces. After entering this command, you will see a MAC address table like this:

ccna_vtp_sim_answer_1

From this table we can figure out that the MAC address 0010.5a0c.ffba is associated with interface Fa0/8.

Note: There are some reports that the “show mac-address-table” command does not exist in the exam. So in the exam, if you cannot use the “show mac-address-table” command then try using the “show mac address-table” (without “-”) instead.

Question 2

What ports on Sw-AC3 are operating has trunks (choose three)?

a) Fa0/1

b) Fa0/3

c) Fa0/4

d) Fa0/6

e) Fa0/9

f) Fa0/12

Answer: Fa0/3, Fa0/9 and Fa0/12

Explanation: Use the show interface trunk command to determine the trunking status of a link and VLAN status. This command lists port, its mode, encapsulation and whether it is trunking. The image below shows how it works:

ccna_vtp_sim_answer_2

(This image is used for demonstration only)

Question 3

What kind of router is VLAN-R1?

a) 1720

b) 1841

c) 2611

d) 2620

Answer: 2620

Explanation: VLAN-R1 is the router directly connected to Sw-Ac3 switch, so we can use the show cdp neighbors command to see:

1. Neighbor Device ID : The name of the neighbor device;

2. Local Interface : The interface to which this neighbor is heard

3. Capability: Capability of this neighboring device – R for router, S for switch, H for Host etc.

4. Platform: Which type of device the neighbor is

5. Port ID: The interface of the remote neighbor you receive CDP information

6. Holdtime: Decremental hold time in seconds

Sample output of show cdp neighbors command:

ccna_vtp_sim_answer_3_2

One thing I want to notice you is “Local Intrfce” in the image above refers to the local interface on the device you are running the “show cdp neighbors” command

Question 4

Which switch is the root bridge for VLAN 1?

Answer: Sw-DS1

Explanation: First we use the show spanning-tree vlan 1 to view the spanning-tree information of VLAN 1

ccna_vtp_sim_answer_4

From the “Cost 19″, we learn that the root switch is directly connected to the Sw-Ac3 switch over a 100Mbps Ethernet link

Notice that if you see all of the interface roles are Desg (designated) then you can confirm Sw-Ac3 switch is the root bridge for this VLAN (VLAN 1).

If you see there is at least one Root port in the interface roles then you can confirm Sw-Ac3 is not the root bridge because root bridge does not have root port. In this case, we notice that the root port on Sw-Ac3 switch is FastEthernet0/12, so we have to figure out which switch is associated with this port -> it is the root bridge. You can verify it with the show cdp neighbors command:

ccna_vtp_sim_answer_4_2

The “Local Intrfce” column refers to the interface on the switch running “show cdp neighbors” command. In this case, Sw-DS1 is associated with interface FastEthernet0/12 -> Sw-DS1 is the root bridge

Question 5

What address should be configured as the default-gateway for the host connected to interface fa 0/4 of SW-Ac3?

Answer: 192.168.44.254

Explanation:

First we have to identify which VLAN interface Fa0/4 belongs to by the show vlan command

ccna_vtp_sim_answer_4_show_vlan

From the exhibit we know that VLAN 44 is configured on router using sub-interface Fa0/0.44 with IP address 192.168.44.254/24

ccna_vtp_sim_answer_4_part_exhibit

Therefore the default gateway of the host should be 192.168.44.254

Question 6

From which switch did Sw-Ac3 receive VLAN information ?

Answer: Sw-AC2

Explanation: to view the VTP configuration information, use the show vtp status command

ccna_vtp_sim_answer_4_show_vtp_status

So we knew Sw-Ac3 received VLAN information from 163.5.8.3 (notice:the IP address may be different). Finally we use the show cdp neighbors detail to find out who 163.5.8.3 is:

ccna_vtp_sim_answer_4_show_cdp_neighbors_detail

Note: If in the exam you find that “Configuration last modified by 0.0.0.0” then “0.0.0.0″ here indicates it does not receive VLAN information from anyone -> Sw-Ac3 is also the local updater. Therefore the answer in this case is Sw-Ac3.

Question 7

Refer to the exibit, SwX was taken out of the production network for maintenance. It will be reconnected to the Fa 0/16 port of Sw-Ac3. What happens to the network when it is reconnected and a trunk exists between the two switches?

ccna_vtp_sim_answer_7_new_switch

A – All VLANs except the default VLAN will be removed from all switches

B – All existing switches will have the students, admin, faculty, Servers, Management, Production, and no-where VLANs

C – The VLANs Servers, Management, Production and no-where will replace the VLANs on SwX

D – The VLANs Servers, Management, Production and no-where will be removed from existing switches

Answer and Explanation:

First we should view the VTP configuration of switch Sw-Ac3 by using the show vtp status command on Sw-Ac3

ccna_vtp_sim_answer_7_new_switch_answer_2

Notice that its configuration revision number is 5 and VTP Domain Name is home-office

Next, from the exhibit we know that SwX has a revision number of 6, which is greater than that of Sw-Ac3 switch, and both of them have same VTP Domain Name called “home-office”.

ccna_vtp_sim_answer_7_new_switch_answer_1

Therefore SwX will replace vlan information on other switches with its own information. We should check vlan information of Sw-Ac3 switch with show vlan command

ccna_vtp_sim_answer_7_new_switch_answer_3

So the correct answer is D – The VLANs Servers, Management, Production and no-where will be removed from existing switches

Please notice that in the real CCNA exam you may see a different configuration revision of Sw-Ac3 or of SwX. In general, which switch has a higher revision number it will become the updater and other switches will overwrite their current databases with the new information received from the updater (provided that they are on the same domain and that switch is not in transparent mode). In particular, if the revision number of SwX is lower than that of Sw-Ac3, the answer should be “C – The VLANs Servers, Management, Production and no-where will replace the VLANs on SwX”.

Also, some recent comments have said that the new switch’s VTP Operating Mode is Server but the answer is still the same.

Note: If a switch is in client mode and has a higher Revision number, it can still update other Server switches (with lower Revision numbers).

Question 8

Out of which ports will a frame be forwarded that has source mac-address 0010.5a0c.fd86 and destination mac-address 000a.8a47.e612? (Choose three)

A – Fa0/8

B – Fa0/3

C – Fa0/1

D – Fa0/12

 

Answer: B C D

Explanation:

First we check to see which ports the source mac-address and the destination mac-address belong to by using show mac-address-table command

ccna_vtp_sim_answer_8_1

We notice that the source mac-address 0010.5a0c.fd86 is listed in the table and it belongs to Vlan 33 but we can’t find the destination mac-address 000a.8a47.e612 in this table. In this case, the switch will flood to all ports of Vlan 33 and flood to all the trunk links, except the port it received this frame (port Fa0/6). Therefore from the output above, we can figure out it will flood this frame to Fa0/1, Fa0/3 and Fa0/12.

Please notice that the “show mac-address-table” command just lists information that was learned by the switch, it means that there can be other ports besides Fa0/1, Fa0/3 and Fa0/12 belong to Vlan 33. You can use the show vlan command to see which ports belong to vlan 33

ccna_vtp_sim_answer_8_2

And we found other ports which belong to vlan 33, they are Fa0/2, Fa0/5 and Fa0/7. Our switch will flood the frame to these ports, too.

And we can check which trunk ports will receive this frame by the show interface trunk command

ccna_vtp_sim_answer_8_3

-> Port Fa0/9 will also receive this frame!

Note: Some reports said there is another version of this question. A reader on 9tut commented:

Another question on the VTP SIM was” What will be the destination MAC address of a packet with Source IP address 192.168.44.1 and destination IP address 192.0.2.X (doesn’t really matter what will be the Dest. IP address, since it will be sent to the router).
The answer is simple:
Since the source IP address belongs to VLAN 44, the default gw of the sender is the Router’s Subinterface 192.168.44.254, and this is where the packet will be sent. Thus, you need to perform a ‘show cdp nei’ on the Sw-AC3 in order to find the local FastEthernet port where the router is connected. Then execute a “show mac address-table” (this command was functioning) and find the mac address associated with the previous port. This is the answer.

Question 9

If one of the host connected to Sw-AC3 wants to send something for the ip 190.0.2.5 (or any ip that is not on the same subnet) what will be the destination MAC address?

Answer and Explanation:

Because the destination address is not on the same subnet with the switch, it will forward the packet to its default gateway. So we have to find out who is the default gateway of this switch by using the show running-config command

ccna_vtp_sim_answer_9_1

From the output, we notice that its default-gateway is 192.168.1.254. In fact, we can easily guess that its default gateway should be a layer 3 device like a router; and in this case, the VLAN-R1 router. To verify our theory, use the show cdp neighbor detail command and focus on the description of VLAN-R1 router

ccna_vtp_sim_answer_9_2

From this output, we can confirm the switch’s default gateway is VLAN-R1 router (with the IP address of 192.168.1.254). And “the interface: FastEthernet0/3″ tells us that the switch is connected to VLAN-R1 router through Fa0/3 port (Fa0/3 is the port on the switch).

Finally we just need to use the show mac-address-table command to find out which MAC address is associated with this interface

ccna_vtp_sim_answer_9_3

(Notice that in the real CCNA exam the MAC address or port may be different)

And we find out the corresponding MAC address is 000a.b7e9.8360. Although there are some entries of port Fa0/3 with different Vlans but they have the same MAC address

    I got 790 today :-(
    This sym was in the test, but the following commands did fail over and over
    To check who was the VTP server I type sh vtp server to see the IP of updater. THis command only worked the first time.
    To see who has the IP the show cdp neigh detail also didn’t worked
    and in the question to check which Mac address was in a port. I type sh mac address-table and every time I typed it jump to another line and only was able to type “show ma” and the system add another “a” and exit every time. I was not able to gather this two questions
    THis is a joke for Cisco or there is another way to check what mac address is in the port?

    Yesterday I passed my exam with 1000, Labs were VTP, EIGRP and Access List 2 with one of the variations 9tut said. Be careful with the VTP sim, the root bridge and the server switch are not the same. Studied from actual tests dump and 9tut.

    THANK YOU VERY MUCH 9tut!

    @JOKA : Dude i got the exam same ACL 2 SIM except in my case it was host D rather than B. The questions asked write no more than 3 statements but i couldnt come up with 3 and wrote 4 instead. I got 0 marks in ACL 2 lab. Can you tell me how many statements did u write in this scenario. Also tell me that writing 4 statements if 3 are asked gives u an absolute 0 or some numbers shud be granted cuz the end result was perfect. Only host D could access the finance server and other things were successful as well.

    It would be great if the admin here or any one can comment on this.

    Just passed my CCNA 640-802! I’d like to thank CBT Nuggets, 9tut, and creators of the Spike and ACME Dumps.
    PLEASE READ BELOW IF YOU NEED HELP!

    First of all, if you are a never exam taker like me, RELAX.

    I got 50 questions, all of pretty much were in the dumps from Spike and ACME. I had ACL2, VTP (5 questions) and EIGRP. Know your subnetting!

    For the Sims

    ACL was pretty much what is on 9tut. Just make sure you look at the variations as well. Make sure you test using the web browser on the sim once configured and then save your configuration!

    EIGRP, the AS number was different on the new router and one of the networks was configured with a wrong ip that didn’t exist. Just need to remove that IP and add the correct one

    VTP. Same as stuff on 9tut Sims. To find the IP for what device the VTP updates were received from, at first i entered show vtp status, but there was no IP, until i ran it again, and then the IP was shown in the previous results :S Either way, it should work so just make sure you look properly!

    If you need any more help, put your email in a post and ill reach out to you.

    CiscoER, Yes there will be pretty much the same questions that are on 9tut that come up in the exam. If you understand all the concepts of CCNA, doing even just 9tut questions should get you passed. But if you have time, i would highly suggest going through Spike or ACME. Go to Exam Collection > Cisco > 640-802 and download the dumps from there

    Aaris, i shall email you soon.

    @ Brian you need to run show mac-address-table twice. The first time you just see a few interfaces. Also you could try show mac-address though I think its not a valid Cisco command though it works in the SIM
    Once you get all your interfaces you will also notice that the MAC in 9tut question does not show up in the SIMs. Well I was not able to see mine. But you just have to understand the concept.

    This is Gopi from Chennai, India.

    Hope everyone is safe and good.

    I booked the CCNA exam at 28 sep 13. Now i scared about CCNA exam bcoz someone told current valid dump is Cisco “Lead2pass 640-802 v2013-09-19 by Kraven 670q.vce” but i studied thoroughly “Cisco.Lead2pass.200-120.v2013-08-28.by.Spike.267q.vce”(267Q)

    Some one pls give the suggestion for which one is valid dump and can i proceed with spike(267Q) dump for my sceduled exam. you can reach me via gopimanees@gmail.com

    September 25th, 2013

    Hi! Passed the exam yesterday! Here’s a usefull advice!

    Question 7 was like this: SwX- server, revision nr. 6, Sw-AC3 – client, revision nr. 7, same domain.
    In this case, from my knowledge, Sw-AC3 will send its vlan database to SwX, and erase SwX VLANs (from the client to the server!!!)

    Thanks 9tut! :)

  44. wang

    they said that show mac-address-table doesn’t work on the actual sim exam so you have to use show mac address-table.

    Refer to the exibit, SwX was taken out of the production network for maintenance. It will be reconnected to the Fa 0/16 port of Sw-Ac3. What happens to the network when it is reconnected and a trunk exists between the two switches? in exam we have to actually connect the switch or not pls reply my exam is on 28th September
