Answer : [B]
Explanation :
A VLAN is a set of devices in the same Layer 2 broadcast domain. A subnet often includes the exact same set of devices, but it is a Layer 3 concept. A collision domain refers to a set of Ethernet devices, but with different rules than VLAN rules for determining which devices are in the same collision domain.

Switch SW1 sends a frame to switch SW2 using 802.1Q trunking. Which of the answers describes how SW1 changes or adds to the Ethernet frame before forwarding the frame to SW2?
  • A.
    Inserts a 4-byte header and does change the MAC addresses
  • B.
    Inserts a 4-byte header and does not change the MAC addresses
  • C.
    Encapsulates the original frame behind an entirely new Ethernet header
  • D.
    None of the other answers are correct.
  • Answer & Explanation
  • Report
Answer : [B]
Explanation :
802.1Q defines a 4-byte header, inserted after the original frame’s destination and source MAC address fields. The insertion of this header does not change the original frame’s source or destination address. The header itself holds a 12-bit VLAN ID field, which identifies the VLAN associated with the frame.

Imagine that you are told that switch 1 is configured with the dynamic auto parameter for trunking on its Fa0/5 interface, which is connected to switch 2. You have to configure switch 2. Which of the following settings for trunking could allow trunking to work? (Choose two answers.)
  • A.
    on
  • B.
    dynamic auto
  • C.
    dynamic desirable
  • D.
    access
  • Answer & Explanation
  • Report
Answer : [A and C]
Explanation :
The dynamic auto setting means that the switch can negotiate trunking, but it can only respond to negotiation messages, and it cannot initiate the negotiation process. So, the other switch must be configured to trunk or to initiate the negotiation process (based on being configured with the dynamic desirable option).

A switch has just arrived from Cisco. The switch has never been configured with any VLANs, but VTP has been disabled. An engineer gets into configuration mode and issues the vlan 22 command, followed by the name Hannahs-VLAN command. Which of the following are true? (Choose two answers.)
  • A.
    VLAN 22 is listed in the output of the show vlan brief command.
  • B.
    VLAN 22 is listed in the output of the show running-config command.
  • C.
    VLAN 22 is not created by this process.
  • D.
    VLAN 22 does not exist in that switch until at least one interface is assigned to that VLAN.
  • Answer & Explanation
  • Report
Answer : [A and B]
Explanation :
The configured VTP setting of VTP transparent mode means that the switch can configure VLANs, so the VLAN is configured. In addition, the VLAN configuration details, including the VLAN name, show up as part of the running-config file.
