The Acme Corporation is implementing dial-up services to enable remote-office employees to connect to the local network. The company uses multiple routed protocols, needs authentication of users connecting to the network, and since some calls will be long distance, needs callback support. Which of the following protocols is the best choice for these remote services?

Detailed Solution: Question 3

PPP is your only option, as HDLC and Frame Relay do not support these types of business requirements. PPP provides dynamic addressing, authentication using PAP or CHAP, and callback services.

Wide Area Networks, Networking Quiz - Question 4

You need to configure a router for a Frame Relay connection to a non-Cisco router. Which of the following commands will prepare the WAN interface of the router for this connection?

Detailed Solution: Question 4

If you have a Cisco router on one side of a Frame Relay network and a non-Cisco router on the other side, you would need to use the Frame Relay encapsulation type of IETF. The default is Cisco encapsulation, which means that a Cisco router must be on both sides of the Frame Relay network.

Which WAN encapsulations can be configured on an asynchronous serial connection?

  1. PPP
  2. ATM
  3. HDLC
  4. SDLC
  5. Frame Relay

Detailed Solution: Question 5

Please do not freak out because ATM is an answer to this question. ATM is not covered in depth on the CCNA exam. PPP is mostly used for dial-up (async) services, but ATM could be used as well, though it typically is not used anymore since PPP is so efficient.

Wide Area Networks, Networking Quiz - Question 6
Save

Which encapsulations can be configured on a serial interface?

  1. Ethernet
  2. Token Ring
  3. HDLC
  4. Frame Relay
  5. PPP

Detailed Solution: Question 6

Ethernet and Token Ring are LAN technologies and cannot be configured on a serial interface. PPP, HDLC, and Frame Relay are layer 2 WAN technologies that are typically configured on a serial interface.

Wide Area Networks, Networking Quiz - Question 7
Save

Suppose that you have a customer who has a central HQ and six branch offices. They anticipate adding six more branches in the near future. They wish to implement a WAN technology that will allow the branches to economically connect to HQ and you have no free ports on the HQ router. Which of the following would you recommend?

Detailed Solution: Question 7

The key is "there are no free ports" on your router. Only Frame Relay can provide a connection to multiple locations with one interface, and in an economical manner no less.

Wide Area Networks, Networking Quiz - Question 8
Save

Which of the following command options are displayed when you use the Router# show frame-relay ? command?

  1. dlci
  2. neighbors
  3. lmi
  4. pvc
  5. map

Detailed Solution: Question 8

The show frame-relay ? command provides many options, but the options available in this question are lmi, pvc, and map.

Wide Area Networks, Networking Quiz - Question 9
Save

In which of the following technologies is the term HFC used?

Detailed Solution: Question 9

In a modern network, hybrid fibre-coaxial (HFC) is a telecommunications industry term for a network that incorporates both optical fiber and coaxial cable to create a broadband network.

Wide Area Networks, Networking Quiz - Question 10
Save

A default Frame Relay WAN is classified as what type of physical network?

Detailed Solution: Question 10

Frame Relay, by default, is a non-broadcast multi-access (NBMA) network, which means that broadcasts, such as RIP updates, will not be forwarded across the link by default.

Wide Area Networks, Networking Quiz - Question 11
Save

Which of the following describes the creation of private networks across the Internet, enabling privacy and tunneling of non-TCP/IP protocols?

Detailed Solution: Question 11

A allows the creation of private networks across the Internet, enabling privacy and tunneling of non-TCP/IP protocols. A VPN can be set up across any type of link.

Wide Area Networks, Networking Quiz - Question 12
Save

Which of the following describes an industry-wide standard suite of protocols and algorithms that allows for secure data transmission over an IP-based network that functions at the layer 3 Network layer of the OSI model?

Detailed Solution: Question 12

IPSec is an industry-wide standard suite of protocols and algorithms that allows for secure data transmission over an IP-based network that functions at the layer 3 Network layer of the OSI model.

Wide Area Networks, Networking Quiz - Question 13
Save

Which of the following uses ATM as the Data Link layer protocol that's terminated at what's known as the DSLAM?

Detailed Solution: Question 13

ATM is the Data-Link layer protocol that's typically used over the DSL layer 1 connection from the CPE and terminated at what's known as the DSLAM-an ATM switch that contains DSL interface cards, or ATU-Cs.

Wide Area Networks, Networking Quiz - Question 14
Save

When a router is connected to a Frame Relay WAN link using a serial DTE interface, how is the clock rate determined?

Detailed Solution: Question 14

Clocking on a serial interface is always provided by the CSU/DSU (DCE device). However, if you do not have a CSU/DSU in your nonproduction test environment, then you need to supply clocking with the clock rate command on the serial interface of the router with the DCE cable attached.

Wide Area Networks, Networking Quiz - Question 15
Save

Which command is required for connectivity in a Frame Relay network if Inverse ARP is not operational?

Detailed Solution: Question 15

If you have a router in your Frame Relay network that does not support IARP, you must create Frame Relay maps on your router, which provide known DLCI-to-IP address mappings.
