Cisco 300-715 Practice Test 102
Question 1010
A contractor laptop is too old for the required operating system baseline but still requests production application access. The observed failure is: A loose OS family match can conceal missing security updates and over-authorize endpoints. How should the administrator correct and verify this failure?
- The supported recovery is to treat a successful network ping as proof the OS version is approved.
- The supported recovery is to assume every computer saying Windows is fully patched.
- The supported recovery is to disable patch assessment when a remediation download fails.
- The supported recovery is to adjust posture requirements and confirm both patched and unpatched devices receive intended access.
Explanation
Correct Answer
D:This restores the intended operational behavior for OS patch and operating system version posture check. For the specific situation, a contractor laptop is too old for the required operating system baseline but still requests production application access.
Incorrect Answers
A:Treat a successful network ping as proof the OS version is approved. This action does not repair the identified failure. A loose OS family match can conceal missing security updates and over-authorize endpoints. Instead, adjust posture requirements and confirm both patched and unpatched devices receive intended access. For the specific situation, a contractor laptop is too old for the required operating system baseline but still requests production application access.
B:Assume every computer saying Windows is fully patched. This action does not repair the identified failure. A loose OS family match can conceal missing security updates and over-authorize endpoints. Instead, adjust posture requirements and confirm both patched and unpatched devices receive intended access. For the specific situation, a contractor laptop is too old for the required operating system baseline but still requests production application access.
C:Disable patch assessment when a remediation download fails. This action does not repair the identified failure. A loose OS family match can conceal missing security updates and over-authorize endpoints. Instead, adjust posture requirements and confirm both patched and unpatched devices receive intended access. For the specific situation, a contractor laptop is too old for the required operating system baseline but still requests production application access.
Question 1011
A noncompliant device must download updates but its quarantine ACL also blocks the approved patch server. Which configuration decision most directly satisfies the requirement?
- Permit narrowly scoped remediation destinations while denying protected resources for noncompliant endpoints.
- Permit every corporate application to all noncompliant devices.
- Block DNS and every approved patch source to enforce faster compliance.
- Assume the quarantine VLAN label itself defines firewall isolation.
Explanation
Correct Answer
A:Verify the effect through quarantine dACL, DNS and patch server reachability, denied internal services and new compliance result. For the specific situation, a noncompliant device must download updates but its quarantine ACL also blocks the approved patch server.
Incorrect Answers
B:Too strict an ACL prevents remediation, while too permissive an ACL bypasses the compliance boundary. This does not implement the required control for Remediation access ACL for noncompliant endpoints.
C:Block DNS and every approved patch source to enforce faster compliance. This alternative overlooks a required prerequisite or targets the wrong function. Noncompliant endpoints need bounded access to remediation services without production access. The relevant evidence is quarantine dACL, DNS and patch server reachability, denied internal services and new compliance result. For the specific situation, a noncompliant device must download updates but its quarantine ACL also blocks the approved patch server.
D:Too strict an ACL prevents remediation, while too permissive an ACL bypasses the compliance boundary. Instead the intended policy action is permit narrowly scoped remediation destinations while denying protected resources for noncompliant endpoints.
Question 1012
A noncompliant device must download updates but its quarantine ACL also blocks the approved patch server. What observations most directly test this network-access condition?
- Quarantine dACL, DNS and patch server reachability, denied internal services and new compliance result.
- A device hostname alone without the policy result or authenticated source.
- A current login screenshot from a completely unrelated ISE deployment.
- A browser theme label without a current authorization trace.
Explanation
Correct Answer
A:These observations directly establish the result of Remediation access ACL for noncompliant endpoints for the described endpoint or network device. For the specific situation, a noncompliant device must download updates but its quarantine ACL also blocks the approved patch server.
Incorrect Answers
B:This observation cannot verify Remediation access ACL for noncompliant endpoints. Noncompliant endpoints need bounded access to remediation services without production access.
C:This observation cannot verify Remediation access ACL for noncompliant endpoints. For the specific situation, a noncompliant device must download updates but its quarantine ACL also blocks the approved patch server.
D:This observation cannot verify Remediation access ACL for noncompliant endpoints. Check quarantine dACL, DNS and patch server reachability, denied internal services and new compliance result.
Question 1013
A noncompliant device must download updates but its quarantine ACL also blocks the approved patch server. What principle of ISE authentication and authorization explains this case?
- A successful switch port link signal always proves the device identity and policy were verified.
- All Cisco ISE administration and policy personas perform exactly the same service.
- A policy display name alone is the complete source of enforcement state.
- Noncompliant endpoints need bounded access to remediation services without production access.
Explanation
Correct Answer
D:The supported implementation is to permit narrowly scoped remediation destinations while denying protected resources for noncompliant endpoints. For the specific situation, a noncompliant device must download updates but its quarantine ACL also blocks the approved patch server.
Incorrect Answers
A:This generalization is not valid for Remediation access ACL for noncompliant endpoints. Instead noncompliant endpoints need bounded access to remediation services without production access.
B:This generalization is not valid for Remediation access ACL for noncompliant endpoints. For the specific situation, a noncompliant device must download updates but its quarantine ACL also blocks the approved patch server.
C:This generalization is not valid for Remediation access ACL for noncompliant endpoints. Verify the actual state using quarantine dACL, DNS and patch server reachability, denied internal services and new compliance result.
Question 1014
A noncompliant device must download updates but its quarantine ACL also blocks the approved patch server. An operator proposes the following incorrect shortcut: Permit every corporate application to all noncompliant devices. Which negative consequence BEST explains the shortcut’s flaw?
- A justified least-privilege ACL caused every unrelated network authentication fault.
- A correctly recorded TACACS command audit caused the preceding security violation.
- Too strict an ACL prevents remediation, while too permissive an ACL bypasses the compliance boundary.
- Reading the authentication event report caused the original network access outage.
Explanation
Correct Answer
C:The shortcut is unsuitable because noncompliant endpoints need bounded access to remediation services without production access. For the specific situation, a noncompliant device must download updates but its quarantine ACL also blocks the approved patch server.
Incorrect Answers
A:A justified least-privilege ACL caused every unrelated network authentication fault. This unrelated assertion does not explain the Remediation access ACL for noncompliant endpoints problem. The relevant risk is that too strict an ACL prevents remediation, while too permissive an ACL bypasses the compliance boundary. Check quarantine dACL, DNS and patch server reachability, denied internal services and new compliance result. For the specific situation, a noncompliant device must download updates but its quarantine ACL also blocks the approved patch server.
