What happens to runt frames that a Cisco Ethernet switch receives?

• The frame is dropped.
• The frame is returned to the originating network device.
• The frame is broadcast to all other devices on the same network.
• The frame is sent to the default gateway.

What are the minimum and maximum sizes of an Ethernet frame? (Select two.)

• 56 bytes
• 64 bytes
• 128 bytes
• 1024 bytes

What statement best describes Ethernet?

• It specifies the most common type of LAN in the world.
• It is the Layer 1 and Layer 2 standard for Internet communication.
• It establishes a standard model for describing how networking works
• It links multiple sites, such as routers in different countries.

Which two statements best describe the logical link control sublayer in Ethernet standards? (Select two.)

• Logical link control is implemented in software.
• Logical link control is specified in the IEEE 802.3 standard.
• The LLC sublayer adds a header and a trailer to the data.
• The data link layer uses LLC to communicate with the upper layers of the protocol suite.
• The LLC sublayer is responsible for the placement and retrieval of frames on and off the media.

What statement best describes a feature of MAC addresses?

• They must be globally unique.
• They are only routable within the private network.
• They are added as part of a Layer 3 PDU.
• They have a 32-bit binary value.

What OSI model network layer characteristic allows packet transmission for several
modes of communication between several hosts?

• Application layer protocols
• Physical layer transmission
• Routing and forwarding capabilities
• Data encryption methods

Which are the two key features of IP? (Pick two.)

• Does not need an end-to-end dedicated connection

• Retransmits packets in the event of mistakes

• Operates independently of network media.

• Reassembles packets that have fallen out of order into the right order at the receiving end.

What field in the IPv4 header is used to stop a packet from traveling across a network forever?

• Time to Live (TTL)
• Packet Length
• Protocol Type
• Source Address

What field in the IPv4 header identifies the upper layer protocol carried in the packet?

• Header Length
• Time to Live
• Protocol
• Type of Service

What is one benefit of IPv6 over IPv4 that the simplified header provides?

• Faster packet processing and improved performance.
• Reduced latency due to smaller packet sizes.
• More complex header for enhanced routing capabilities.
• Increased address space for better security.
