(Choose two) A B C D ISDN BRI Frame Relay Asynchronous Dedicated lease line Answer: B D Explanation: A remote site, or branch office, is a small-site connection to a campus over a WAN A remote site typically has fewer users than the central site and therefore needs a smaller-size WAN connection Remote sites connect to the central site and to some other remote site offices Telecommuters may also require access to the remote site A remote site can use the same or different media Remote site traffic can vary, but is typically sporadic The network designer must determine whether it is more cost effective to offer a permanent or dialup solution The remote site must have a variety of equipment, but not as much as the central site requires Typical WAN solutions a remote site uses to connect to the central site follow: * Leased line * Frame Relay * X.25 * ISDN As the keyword is here : "Constant Access" We don't need and dialup solution (ISDN or Asynchronous) As it would be to costly to keep the line up the entire day Leading the way in IT testing and certification tools, www.testking.com -3- 642 - 821 Reference: Cisco Press - Building Cisco Remote Access Networks Student Guide v1.1 Page 2-25 QUESTION NO: You need to support a mobile sales group who needs access to email from a variety of locations What best meets the needs of the sales group? A B C D Digital service Multi-mode service Asynchronous service High-Speed Serial (HSS) interface Answer: C Explanation: As WAN technologies improve, allowing many employees to their jobs almost anywhere, the growth in the number of telecommuter and small company sites has exploded Like that of central and remote sites, the telecommuter site must determine its WAN solution by weighing cost and bandwidth requirements An asynchronous dialup solution using the existing telephony network and an analog modem is often the solution for telecommuters because it is easy to set up and the telephone facilities are already installed As usage and bandwidth requirements increase, other remote access technologies should be considered The nonstationary characteristics of a mobile user make an asynchronous dialup connection the remote solution Employees on the road can use their PCs with modems and the existing telephone network to connect to the company Typical WAN connections employed at telecommuter sites are: * Asynchronous dialup * ISDN BRI * Frame Relay (if the user utilizes the link for an extended time, like half the day) * (A)DSL Typical considerations for a remote site WAN connection follow: * Cost * Authentication * Availability Reference: Cisco Press - Building Cisco Remote Access Networks Student Guide v1.1 Page 2-27 QUESTION NO: Leading the way in IT testing and certification tools, www.testking.com -4- 642 - 821 What are the advantages of Frame Relay connection over dedicated leased lines? (Choose two) A B C D Better suited multiple branch locations Lower cost More control over the connection Full guaranteed bandwidth Answer: A, B Explanation: Frame Relay provides virtual circuit connectivity for enterprise networks that require 56 kbps up to T1/E1 speeds It costs less than leased lines because it uses statistical multiplexing of packets to gain efficiencies within the network, at the cost of a less-stringent bandwidth and latency guarantee Frame Relay is being widely deployed in enterprise networks to connect regional and branch offices into the enterprise backbone Reference: http://www.cisco.com/en/US/products/hw/modules/ps2033/products_white_paper09186a0080091ca9.shtml QUESTION NO: Leading the way in IT testing and certification tools, www.testking.com -5- 642 - 821 On an EIA/TIA-232 null modem cable with DB25 connectors, which two pins are cross connected? (Choose two) A B C D E F Pin Pin Pin Pin Pin Pin Answer: A, B Explanation: When two DTE devices (for example, an access server and a terminal) are near each other, it makes sense to connect them directly without going through a telephone network and two modems An ordinary EIA/TIA-232 cable will not work in this case because both DTE devices transmit on the TxD lead (pin 2), and both expect input on the RxD lead (pin 3) A “null modem cable” is required for the DTE-to-DTE connection Null modems crisscross DB-25 pins and and other corresponding pins (as shown in the figure) so that the two DTE devices can communicate Some devices can be configured to operate either like a DTE or a DCE Configuring a device as a DCE usually means that it receives data on pin and transmits data on pin For example, many serial printers are configured as DCE devices so they can be connected directly to a DTE (for example, a PC or a terminal server) with an ordinary EIA/TIA-232 cable, eliminating the need for a null modem Leading the way in IT testing and certification tools, www.testking.com -6- 642 - 821 connection Reference: Cisco Press - Building Cisco Remote Access Networks Student Guide v1.1 Page 4-10 QUESTION NO: Which WAN connections are typically employed at telecommuter sites?

A B C D CET supports AH, ESP and Anti-Replay which are not available with IPSec IPSec supports AH, ESP and Anti-Replay which are not available with CET CET is the implementation of IPSec in the Cisco Secure Services package IPSec is used to encrypt IP-only packets, whereas CET is used to encrypt only non-IP packets Answer: B Explanation: Cisco Encryption Technology (CET) is a proprietary security solution introduced in Cisco IOS Release 11.2 It provides network data encryption at the IP packet level and implements the following standards: • • • Digital Signature Standard (DSS) Diffie-Hellman (DH) public key algorithm Data Encryption Standard (DES) IPSec is a framework of open standards developed by the Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF) that provides security for transmission of sensitive information over unprotected networks such as the Internet It acts at the network level and implements the following standards: • IPSec • Internet Key Exchange (IKE) • Data Encryption Standard (DES) • MD5 (HMAC variant) • SHA (HMAC variant) • Authentication Header (AH) • Encapsulating Security Payload (ESP) IPSec services provide a robust security solution that is standards-based IPSec also provides data authentication and anti-replay services in addition to data confidentiality services, while CET provides only data confidentiality services If you require only Cisco router-to-Cisco router encryption, then you could run CET, which is a more mature, higher-speed solution.If you require a standards-based solution that provides multivendor interoperability or remote client connections, then you should implement IPSec Also, if you want to implement data authentication with or without privacy (encryption), then IPSec is the right choice Leading the way in IT testing and certification tools, www.testking.com -8- 642 - 821 Reference: http://www.cisco.com/en/US/products/sw/iosswrel/ps1831/products_configuration_guide_chapter09186a00800 d981b.html#77018 QUESTION NO: When using a CATV cable service as an Internet connection medium, what is “upstream traffic”? A B C D Traffic getting at the user’s home traveling to the headend Traffic between the headend and the supplier antenna Broadcast traffic, including the cable TV signals Traffic from outside the local cable segment serving the user’s home Answer: A Explanation: From an IP perspective, a CATV system almost appears to be another data link layer However, experience gained thus far has demonstrated that the marriage of IP over CATV radio frequency (RF) channels is not as straightforward as IP over any other high-speed serial point-to-point link In the CATV space, the downstream channels in a cable plant (cable head-end to subscribers) is a point-tomultipoint channel This does have very similar characteristics to transmitting over an Ethernet seg-ment where one transmitter is being listened to by many receivers The major difference is that baseband modulation has been replaced by a more densely modulated RF carrier with very sophisticated adaptive signal processing and forward error correction (FEC) In the upstream direction (subscriber cable modems transmitting towards the head-end) the environment is many transmitters and one receiver This introduces the need for precise scheduling of packet transmissions to achieve high utilization and precise power control so as to not overdrive the receiver or other amplifier electronics in the cable system Since the upstream direction is like a single receiver with many antennas, the channels are much much more susceptible to inter-fering noise products In the cable industry, we generally call this ingress noise As ingress noise is an inherent part of CATV plants, the observable impact is an unfortunate rise in the average noise floor in the upstream channel To overcome this noise jungle, upstream modulation is not as dense as in the downstream and we have to use more effective FEC as used in the downstream There is a further com-plication that there are many upstream “ports” on a fully deployed Hybrid Fiber-Coaxial (HFC) plant that requires matching head-end equipment ports for high-speed data Reference: http://www.cisco.com/warp/public/759/ipj_1-3/ipj_1-3_catv.html QUESTION NO: Which feature will cache routes learned by dynamic routing protocols, enabling their use over DDR connections? Leading the way in IT testing and certification tools, www.testking.com -9- 642 - 821 A B C D E Route redistribution Dynamic static routes Snapshot routing DDR route maps Passive interfaces Answer: A Explanation: In this example we have configured the remote leaves and their static routes are established, on the corporate side it is very important that we be able to distribute those addresses across the network as desired To redistribute those routes we need to configure the routes to be redistributed to a dynamic routing protocol at the core side The example in the figure shows we are using the Interior Gateway Routing Protocol (IGRP) as the dynamic routing protocol and will redistribute the static routes using the redistribute static command In this example, the router advertises that it knows the route to the 192.150.42.0 network Leading the way in IT testing and certification tools, www.testking.com - 10 - 642 - 821 Answer: E Explanation: The figure illustrates the cable connections available for the various WAN types No1 Asynchronous connectionsAsynchronous connections require RJ-11 cables attached from the modem’s line port to the telephone company jack If you are using an external modem attached to a Cisco router, you must also use a Cisco Electronic Industries Association/Telecommunications Industry Association (EIA/TIA)232 cable to attach the modem to the router’s serial interface The DB-60 end of the cable connects to the router The DB-25 end attaches to the modem No2 ISDN BRIISDN BRI connection interfaces require RJ-45 cables to connect the BRI interface to the ISDN network The BRI modules and BRI WAN interface cards are available with either an S/T interface that requires an external NT1, or a U interface with a built-in NT1 No3 ISDN PRI (North America)Channelized T1 (CT1)/PRI modules are available with or without a built-in CSU If you use an external CSU, attach a female DB-15 cable to the router’s interface The other end of the straightthrough cable will attach to the CSU, which in turn attaches to the ISDN network Routers with internal CSU modules attach directly to the ISDN network with a standard RJ-48 connector Leading the way in IT testing and certification tools, www.testking.com - 227 - 642 - 821 No4 ISDN PRI (Europe)Channelized E1 (CE1)/PRI modules are available with balanced and unbalanced interfaces CE1/PRI-balanced modules provide a 120-ohm E1 interface for network connections The unbalanced modules provide a 75-ohm E1 interface for network connections Four serial cables are available from Cisco for the CE1/PRI module All four cables have DB- 15 connectors on the router end and DNC, DB15, twinax, or RJ-45 connectors on the network end No5 Frame RelayIf you must establish a Frame Relay serial connection, Cisco routers support the following signaling standards: EIA/TIA-232, EIA/TIA-449, V.35, X.21, and EIA-530 Cisco supplies a DB-60 shielded serial transition cable with the appropriate connector for the standard you specify The router end of the shielded serial transition cable has a DB-60 connector, which connects to the DB-60 port on the router’s serial interface The other end of the serial transition cable depends on the standard you specify Reference: Cisco Press - Building Cisco Remote Access Networks Student Guide v1.1 Chapter 3-8 and 3-9 QUESTION NO: 100 You are configuring Dial-on-demand routing (DDR) However, you run into problems and decide to troubleshoot the problem In particular you want to view the DDR events in real time Which command should use? A B C D show dialer debug dialer debug ppp dialer debug dialer negotiation Answer: B Explanation: Leading the way in IT testing and certification tools, www.testking.com - 228 - 642 - 821 There are many more commands and command outputs that are useful in troubleshooting the dial process in general For instance, the debug dialer command is one of the best tools to use to figure out which traffic is attempting to traverse the ISDN link Reference: Cisco Press - Building Cisco Remote Access Networks Student Guide v1.1 Page 7-63 QUESTION NO: 101 Your trainee is checking PVC configuration Now she wants to acquire the remote network address related to each PVC Which command should she use to obtain this information? A B C D E show show show show show ip route frame-relay frame-relay frame-relay frame-relay lmi map pvc status Leading the way in IT testing and certification tools, www.testking.com - 229 - 642 - 821 Answer: D Explanation: The show frame-relay pvc command & show frame-relay map can be used to obtain this infomation However the show frame-relay pvc command is more detailed then the show frame-relay map command as you can see in the next two pictures viewing the status of statically or dynamically defined PVCs The show ip route command is used to display IP routing table entries Using the debug frame-relay lmi command enables you to watch the real-time communication between the router and the switch Leading the way in IT testing and certification tools, www.testking.com - 230 - 642 - 821 Reference: Cisco Press - BCRAN - 642-821 - Exam Certification Guide 2004 (ISBN 1-58720-084-8) Page 290 QUESTION NO: 102 You must to configure a Cisco access server which only supports external modems You must configure an asynchronous connection for pool dial-in users Which command sequence could be used for a partial configuration in this scenario? Leading the way in IT testing and certification tools, www.testking.com - 231 - 642 - 821 A line peer default address 10.2.3.4 async mode interactive ppp authentication chap B interface async peer default address 10.2.3.4 async mode interactive ppp authentication chap C interface async peer default address 10.2.3.4 async mode fixed ppp authentication chap D interface async peer default address 10.2.3.4 async mode fixed ppp authentication chap Answer: B Explanation: There is often confusion between the interface async and line commands The major difference is that the interface async command lets you configure the protocol (logical) aspects of an asynchronous port, while the line command lets you configure the physical aspects of the same port The async commands can be thought of as internal, while the line commands configure external characteristics of the configuration peer default ip address address - Assigns a predefined default IP address to the remote client node that dials in to the corresponding asynchronous line Additionally, the pool and dhcp arguments allow address allocation from a local pool of addresses or a DHCP server async mode interactive - This command allows the dial-in user to run SLIP, PPP, or EXEC on the specified line and is the default This command allows you to run the EXEC on a dial-in line The no async mode interactive command prevents users from running SLIP or PPP at the EXEC level There is no async mode fixed command Reference: Cisco Press - Building Cisco Remote Access Networks Student Guide v1.1 Page 4-24 and 5-9 and 5-10 QUESTION NO: 103 You want have an existing modemcap entry called testking_opt Now you want to create a new modemcap entry named testking_custom based on the attributes of the existing entry testking_opt Which command should you use?
