What would show interface s0/0/0 indicate if show controllers s0/0/0 indicated a cable type of unknown? | |
serial 0/0/0 is down, line protocol is down | |

serial 0/0/0 is up, line protocol is up (looped) | |
serial 0/0/0 is up, line protocol is down (disabled) | |

Which three statements are correct about HDLC encapsulation? (Choose three.) | |
HDLC supports PAP and CHAP authentication. | |
HDLC implementation in Cisco routers is proprietary. | |
HDLC specifies a data encapsulation method on synchronous serial links using frame characters and checksums | |
HDLC is the default serial interface encapsulation on Cisco routers. | |
HDLC and PPP are compatible. | |
HDLC does not support CDP. |
| |
LCP negotiates the authentication option
| |
LCP negotiates the compression and authentication options
| |
LCP tests the link quality
| |
CHAP authentication
| |
LCP negotiates the compression and authentication options
|
Which three statements are true regarding LCP? (Choose three.) | |
It is responsible for negotiating link establishment. | |
It negotiates options for Layer 3 protocols running over PPP. | |
It uses MD5 encryption while negotiating link establishment parameters. | |
It terminates the link upon user request or the expiration of an inactivity timer. | |
It can test the link to determine if link quality is sufficient to bring up the link. | |
It monitors the link for congestion and dynamically adjusts the acceptable window size. |
Which two options can LCP negotiate? (Choose two.) | |
link quality | |
authentication | |
dynamic flow control | |
compression and network layer address for IP | |
connection-oriented or connectionless communication methods |
Which advantage does the multilink option provide when using PPP? | |
Data transmission has load balancing possibilities. | |
Interfaces can be configured using both HDLC and PPP. | |
More than one authentication method can be used. | |
More than one compression protocol can be configured. |
What function do Network Control Protocols provide for a PPP connection? | |
to establish and terminate data links | |
error detection | |
to manage network congestion and to allow quality testing of the link | |
to allow multiple Layer 3 protocols to operate over the same physical link | |
to provide authentication capabilities to PPP |
| |
one | |
two | |
three | |
four |
| |
Only the link-establishment phase completed successfully. | |
Only the network-layer phase completed successfully. | |
Neither the link-establishment phase nor the the network-layer phase completed successfully. | |
Both the link-establishment and network-layer phase completed successfully. |
| |
Challenge Handshake Authentication Protocol | |
Password Authentication Protocol | |
compression | |
link quality | |
error detection |
Which three statements correctly describe PPP authentication? (Choose three.) | |
PAP sends passwords in clear text. | |
PAP uses a 3-way handshake to establish a link. | |
PAP provides protection from repeated trial-and-error attacks. | |
CHAP uses a 2-way handshake to establish a link. | |
CHAP uses a challenge/response that is based on the MD5 hash algorithm. | |
CHAP uses repeated challenges for verification. |
Which authentication protocol can be spoofed to allow playback attacks? | |
MD5 | |
CHAP | |
PAP | |
NCP |
| |
LCP is in the process of negotiating a link. | |
LCP and NCP are waiting for CHAP authentication to complete. | |
LCP negotiation has been successful, but NCP negotiation is in progress. | |
Data is able to flow across this link. |
| |
NCP has successfully negotiated. | |
The PAP passwords did not match, so the routers are trying CHAP authentication. | |
One router has suggested PAP authentication, and the other has accepted authentication but suggested CHAP authentication. | |
One router can only use PAP authentication while the other router can only use CHAP, so the connection has been rejected. |
| |
LCP negotiation has been successful. | |
The router has agreed on IP parameters. | |
The router is negotiating IP compression options. | |
The router is requesting an IP address from its peer. | |
The router has accepted IP but not the suggested IP options. |
| |
Authentication will fail between these routers. | |
Each router authenticates its neighbor against the username and password that are configured in the local database. | |
The default encapsulation type is configured on these routers. | |
NCP negotiates for IP to use predictor compression. | |
If there is more than a 20% error rate on the line, then LCP will take the line down. |
Which statement describes parallel data communications? | |
Digital data is broken into 8-bit chunks (bytes) and transmitted from one entity to another bit by bit. | |
Digital data that is transmitted over a parallel connection is not affected by clock skew or crosstalk. | |
Digital data is transmitted from one entity to another via the use of a bus that consists of multiple wires, each carrying one bit of the data sample. | |
Digital data is transmitted via the use of two loops of wire, one in each direction. |
