Share your SWITCH v2.0 Experience

For which reason would you configure RSPAN instead of SPAN on your network?

A. RSPAN provides more complete monitoring of the traffic on a single switch.
B. Only RSPAN devices can monitor traffic on other device.
C. Only RSPAN can log traffic on a VLAN that spans multiple switches.
D. Only RSPAN supports STP on multiple switches across a campus.

Answer: B or C. Certprepare says B but I think its C and a lot of other dumps are telling me C
Can anyone confirm?

a new question :if you connect uplink an internal switch to a provider’s switch, which feature you have to enable on your switch to avoid most probably a broadcast storm.
a, BPDU filter
b, BPDU guard
c, loop guard
d, ip source guard

It;s B

Could someone kindly clear my doubt.
I have passed CCNP Route and Tshoot, I am taking Switch on 23 Feb, if i failed what will be the next steps or should i take all new ccnp again?

Are SDM questions still on the test?

Hey . l passed the exam today and here are the topics
1- LACP with STP SIM
2-VTP V3 Sim
3- HSRP Sim
4- lots of questions about TACACS+
5- D&D for RADIUS and TACACS+

@Dan21

its B, SPAN doesn’t log, it monitors.

@Magic, yea bro had 2 yesterday on my exma,

a q What is the value of the TPID/tag protocol identifier of QinQ?
A. 0x88a8
B. 0x8100
C. 0x8b45
D. 0x8200
Answer: A and it shuld be answer B.

@Chuck… thanks for information. Can i ask what did you do to “switch A switchport trunk encapsulation dot1q” is not accepted in the command line? even i think in switch B? Your help is appreciated. thanks.

QUESTION 39
Which errdisable recovery command option enables a device to recover from an incorrect SFT state?
A. link-monitor-failure
B. sfp-config-mismatch
C. gbic-invalid
D. port-mode-failure

C is the correct
https://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/support/docs/lan-switching/spanning-tree-protocol/69980-errdisable-recovery.html

that doc only refer gbic-invalid, link-monitor-failure perhaps dont exist,

With time closing in. Are 6,7,8 enough to study to pass 300-115? What else is needed?

When you connect an internal switch to an upstream provider switch, which feature is most appropriate to
implement to avoid potential broadcast storms?
A. loop guard
B. BPDU guard
C. flex links
D. BPDU filter
E. BPDU ignore

I think the ans is D, but am unsure. Can anyone verify?

@girll D and E

Guys, all you need is this site… Just passed with a 9xx, all the questions, sims and drag and drops are the

Hi Everyone,

To those who already passed the exam and got a DND for STP priority, can someone please confirm and verify if the details below are correct? I’ve seen two sets of dumps that have different heirarchy of the answers.

First

STP Switch
4096
Lowest Value
Port
128
16
Path
Interface Speed
1-2000

Second
STP
Lowest Value
4096
Port
128
16
Path
Interface Speed
1-20000

The two version of STP Priority with regards to STP are interchange, hopefully someone can confirm what are the correct answer.

God Bless!

I think its A man… all the dumps i find have A. Can anyone chime in?

@certprepare I just purchased premium membership. But I still can’t access the premium features and I’ve got a window that is continuously refreshing stating that payment is not yet confirmed by the payment system. Any help please? or a way to contact the admins.

Everything’s fine now, Thanks

Does ANYONE know what this means?

What is “this site”?

@Ron what he meant is the materials provided by this site. you can check on the FAQ and a mediafire link should be available there(it should be the premium one). peeps also comment links here of the updated questions they encountered on the exam so most of the dumps you needed to pass should be located on this site.

@nirvair sahota
does anything about CORE->DSW->ALSW & Hotspot HSRP coming out?

Questions for Simulation:

LACP w/ STP: should we let the interface fa0/1 on SwA stay in access mode?

VTP (w/ DLSw and ALSw): is interface fa0/1 on ALSw doesn’t need to be configured as trunk?

@Chuck

the reason why you aren’t able to configure SwA to “switchport trunk encapsulation dot1q” is that SwA is a L2 2900 series switch that doesn’t support ISL and by default its using dot1q encapsulation already while SwB is a 3500 series L3 switch that support ISL and dot1q encapsulation, you need to configure encapsulation dot1q on SwB as encapsulation should match on both end.

Hope this helps the confusion :)

Passed my Switch with 9xx. 5-8 new MCQs, which I dont remember now. everything else was exactly same. Concepts of all the technologies are very important, you cannot pass this exam with just remembering everything from here. Cisco tricks you with labs too with very minor changes. Good knowledge is required of STP, port security, Root guard, loop guard, etherchannel, SPAN and RSPAN

LABS:
HSRP
VTP
LACP

D&D:
HSRP – VRRP
GLBP
PVST,RPVST
CDP-LLDP
BPDU guard – BPDU Filter

Good luck!!!

Hi, what’s the correct answer in the actual exam? Did you guys follow this?

Question 12

Which command do you enter so that the default authentication group on a device falls back to the case-sensitive local user database when the initial authentication fails?
A. aaa authentication login default group tacacs+ radius local
B. aaa authentication exec default group tacacs+ local if-authenticated
C. aaa authentication login default group tacacs+ local-case if-authenticated
D. aaa authentication exec default group tacacs+ if-authenticated local

Answer is C even though ‘if-authenticated’ argument is only supported for authorization purposes, NOT authentication as suggested.

@fafacalvs

Thank you for providing this kind of information about the LACP STP LAB.

guys litle help,

Which two statements about static MAC addresses are true? (Choose two)

A.They are configured without an aging time.
B.They have a default aging time of 300 seconds.
C.They supersede dynamically learned MAC address.
D.They can be configured on multiple interfaces in the same VLAN.
E.They have a default aging time of 60 seconds.

A and D seems to be corrected but I already see in a lot of dumps in internet that it is B and D correct anyone can tell what is the correct answer and why?

Looking to this:

https://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/td/docs/switches/datacenter/nexus3000/sw/layer2/503_U2_1/b_Cisco_n3k_layer2_config_guide_503_U2_1/b_Cisco_n3k_layer2_config_gd_503_U2_1_chapter_01101.pdf

The aging time is for MAC Add table (all of it, Dynamic and static), it doesnt refer that static dont have an aging time, but if I configure a static MAC it is to dont loose is after 300 sec…. right?
