Question 3Selectable Answer
Since installing a cisco TelePresence system, the company is experiencing other application having response issues when the system in use. As a result, the company asked an architect to recommend a QoS solution. The customer is currently using a CBWFQ policy to manage traffic on an internet connection with a speed of 100 Mbps.
Which link-capacity limit must the architect choose for strict-priority for the real-time traffic?
Answer: Explanation:
https://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/td/docs/ios-xml/ios/qos_conmgt/configuration/xe-3s/qos-conmgt-xe-3s-book/qos-conmgt-oview.html#GUID-48F6AF58-5CCC-44A0-B868-125AE453FF2A%20%20%20%20%20%20(75%20Mbps)
The sum of all bandwidth allocation on an interface cannot exceed 75 percent of the total available interface bandwidth. The remaining 25 percent is used for other overhead, including Layer 2 overhead, routing traffic, and best-effort traffic. Bandwidth for the CBWFQ class-default class, for instance, is taken from the remaining 25 percent.
Question 4Selectable Answer
Refer to the exhibit.
Area 10 is a regular OSPF area and networks 10.1.1.0/24 and 172.16.1.0/24 are internal.
Which design provides optimal routing between both networks when the link between routers C and E fails?
Answer:
Question 5Selectable Answer
Refer to the exhibit.
A customer is running HSRP on the core routers. Over time the company has grown and requires more
network capacity. In the current environment, some of the downstream interfaces are almost fully utilized, but others are not.
Which solution improves the situation?
Answer:
Question 6Selectable Answer
Refer to the exhibit.
The distribution switches serve as the layer 3 boundary. HSRP preemption is enabled. When the primary switch comes back after a failure, traffic is initially dropped.
Which solution must be implemented to improve the design?
Answer:
Question 7Selectable Answer
An engineer must design a large Layer 2 domain that contains hundreds of switches and VLANs.
The engineer's primary goals are to:
• Efficiently utilize the bandwidth of all links
• Avoid Layer 2 loops
• Cause minimal impact on switch CPU and memory
Which technology should the engineer include in the design?
Answer:
Question 8Selectable Answer
An engineer must design a routing solution for a company that is single-homed to an ISP. The company's goal is to run BGP between the CE and the PE devices. To support running BGP, the company obtained a public AS number and IP subnet from ARIN.
Which solution must the engineer select?
Answer:
Question 9Selectable Answer
A company uses cloud-based applications for voice and video calls, file sharing, content sharing, and messaging. During business hours, these applications randomly become slow and unresponsive. However, other applications work smoothly with the current applied QoS polices.
Which solution must the company choose to resolve the issue?
Answer: Explanation:
using NBAR to identify application and bandwidth usage, then adjust existing QoS polices would be a more simple option. Of course, B is still ok if the network admin know all traffic and bandwidth consumption by other tools, say netflow.

Question 10Selectable Answer
Refer to the exhibit.
The failover time of ISP-2 is significantly shorter than ISP-1 when an interface on the ISP router toward the campus network fails.
Which solution minimizes the downtime to the sub-second?
A network engineer must improve the current IS-IS environment. The Catalyst switch is equipped with dual supervisors. Each time a stateful switchover occurs, the network experiences unnecessary route recomputation.
Which solution addresses this issue if the upstream router does not understand graceful restart messaging?
Answer:
Question 12Selectable Answer
Refer to the exhibit.
Which method must an architect use to provide connectivity between the mail servers?
Answer:
Question 13Selectable Answer
Which PIM mode uses a shared tree only?
Answer: Explanation:
The PIM mode that uses a shared tree only is the sparse mode. In sparse mode, PIM routers build a shared tree for multicast traffic, which is shared among all of the routers in the multicast domain. The shared tree is built from the source routers to the rendezvous point (RP) and then from the RP to the receivers. The advantage of sparse mode is that it requires less state information on the routers.
Question 14Selectable Answer
When vEdge router redundancy is designed, which FHRP is supported?
Answer:
Question 15Selectable Answer
Which consideration must be taken into account when using the DHCP relay feature in a Cisco SD-Access Architecture?
