What will a host on an Ethernet network do if it receives a frame with a destination MAC address that does not match its own MAC address?
It will discard the frame.
It will forward the frame to the next host.
It will remove the frame from the media.
It will strip off the data-link frame to check the destination IP address.
What is auto-MDIX?
a type of Cisco switch
an Ethernet connector type
a type of port on a Cisco switch
a feature that detects Ethernet cable type
Which two functions or operations are performed by the MAC sublayer? (Choose two.)
It is responsible for Media Access Control.
It performs the function of NIC driver software.
It adds a header and trailer to form an OSI Layer 2 PDU.
It handles communication between upper and lower layers.
It adds control information to network protocol layer data.
What type of address is 01-00-5E-0A-00-02?
an address that reaches every host inside a local subnet
an address that reaches one specific host
an address that reaches every host in the network
an address that reaches a specific group of hosts
What happens to runt frames received by a Cisco Ethernet switch?
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

hub
router
switch

Which function or operation is performed by the LLC sublayer?
It performs data encapsulation.
It communicates with upper protocol layers.
It is responsible for media access control.
It adds a header and trailer to a packet to form an OSI Layer 2 PDU.
Which statement is true about MAC addresses?
MAC addresses are implemented by software.
A NIC only needs a MAC address if connected to a WAN.
The first three bytes are used by the vendor assigned OUI.
The ISO is responsible for MAC addresses regulations.
