Question 20

A building uplink exhibits frame errors after a replacement transceiver was attached to a switch interface with a forced link setting. The change fails acceptance. What is the safest targeted restoration action?

  1. Restore the previous access-control policy without changing known-good tagged VLAN assignments, then retest authorization.
  2. Return the endpoint to a known-good adequate-power port and restore safe PoE allocation before retesting the new port.
  3. Restore compatible prior interface speed and duplex settings and verify the link errors stop before reinstating production traffic.
  4. Restore the previous correct scope mapping and lease parameters, then renew a test client before wider rollout.

Explanation

Correct Answer

C:

Restore compatible prior interface speed and duplex settings and verify the link errors stop before reinstating production traffic. 802.3 link parameters must be compatible across the connected interfaces, and physical link-up alone does not prove clean Ethernet transmission. The focused rollback restores a known safe baseline before another change attempt. The decision applies to the described 802.3 ethernet autonegotiation and duplex situation.

Incorrect Answers

A:

Restore the previous access-control policy without changing known-good tagged VLAN assignments, then retest authorization. This instead concerns 802.1q tagging versus 802.1x admission. 802.1Q carries VLAN information, while 802.1X controls access through authentication; satisfying one mechanism does not establish the other. It would not safely roll back the relevant failed change. The immediate problem concerns 802.3 ethernet autonegotiation and duplex. The specific case describes: A building uplink exhibits frame errors after a replacement transceiver was attached to a switch interface with a forced link setting.

B:

Return the endpoint to a known-good adequate-power port and restore safe PoE allocation before retesting the new port. This instead concerns 802.3 poe power negotiation and budgets. IEEE 802.3 power negotiation and switch budgets determine whether a connected powered device can run its optional features despite a valid data link. It would not safely roll back the relevant failed change. The immediate problem concerns 802.3 ethernet autonegotiation and duplex. The specific case describes: A building uplink exhibits frame errors after a replacement transceiver was attached to a switch interface with a forced link setting.

D:

Restore the previous correct scope mapping and lease parameters, then renew a test client before wider rollout. This instead concerns ipv4 subnet and gateway correctness. A host needs coherent subnet membership and gateway information; link-up cannot compensate for an incorrect prefix or default router. It would not safely roll back the relevant failed change. The immediate problem concerns 802.3 ethernet autonegotiation and duplex. The specific case describes: A building uplink exhibits frame errors after a replacement transceiver was attached to a switch interface with a forced link setting.

Question 21

A campus printer repeatedly drops packets despite link-up because its negotiated Ethernet mode differs from the switch port's manually pinned mode. Before implementing a remedy, what should the engineer check first?

  1. Inspect LLDP power requests, negotiated PoE class and available per-port and chassis power budget.
  2. Cross-check speed, duplex, autonegotiation results and interface CRC or alignment counters on both endpoints.
  3. Inspect 802.11 channel occupancy, contention and client retransmission counters rather than Ethernet collision counters.
  4. Inspect ICMPv6 router advertisements, RA flags, prefix information and default-route installation at the client.

Explanation

Correct Answer

B:

Cross-check speed, duplex, autonegotiation results and interface CRC or alignment counters on both endpoints. 802.3 link parameters must be compatible across the connected interfaces, and physical link-up alone does not prove clean Ethernet transmission. The evidence check isolates the relevant prerequisite before a disruptive change. The decision applies to the described 802.3 ethernet autonegotiation and duplex situation.

C:

Inspect 802.11 channel occupancy, contention and client retransmission counters rather than Ethernet collision counters. This instead concerns 802.11 channel access and collision avoidance. Wi-Fi uses collision avoidance because a station cannot reliably detect collisions while transmitting on its shared RF channel; wired Ethernet access follows different medium behavior. It does not isolate the cause of the stated incident. The immediate problem concerns 802.3 ethernet autonegotiation and duplex. The specific case describes: A campus printer repeatedly drops packets despite link-up because its negotiated Ethernet mode differs from the switch port's manually pinned mode.

D:

Inspect ICMPv6 router advertisements, RA flags, prefix information and default-route installation at the client. This instead concerns ipv6 ra and default-router discovery. IPv6 clients commonly learn prefixes and default-router presence from RAs; IPv4 DHCP success does not validate that control plane. It does not isolate the cause of the stated incident. The immediate problem concerns 802.3 ethernet autonegotiation and duplex. The specific case describes: A campus printer repeatedly drops packets despite link-up because its negotiated Ethernet mode differs from the switch port's manually pinned mode.

Question 22

A campus printer repeatedly drops packets despite link-up because its negotiated Ethernet mode differs from the switch port's manually pinned mode. After the root cause is confirmed, which narrowly scoped configuration action should be selected?

  1. Apply compatible Ethernet negotiation or matched explicit link settings on the two connected interfaces according to support requirements.
  2. Provide a supported PoE power class and sufficient switch budget for the endpoint's required feature set.
  3. Use a WLAN design that accounts for CSMA/CA contention, airtime and acknowledgments on the shared radio channel.
  4. Enable appropriate authorized IPv6 RA behavior on the correct gateway interface with intended prefix and policy.

Explanation

Correct Answer

A:

Apply compatible Ethernet negotiation or matched explicit link settings on the two connected interfaces according to support requirements. 802.3 link parameters must be compatible across the connected interfaces, and physical link-up alone does not prove clean Ethernet transmission. The proposed configuration targets the stated dependency without broadening unrelated access. The decision applies to the described 802.3 ethernet autonegotiation and duplex situation.

Incorrect Answers

B:

Provide a supported PoE power class and sufficient switch budget for the endpoint's required feature set. This instead concerns 802.3 poe power negotiation and budgets.

Question 24

A campus printer repeatedly drops packets despite link-up because its negotiated Ethernet mode differs from the switch port's manually pinned mode. If the revised setting disrupts users, which controlled rollback would be most relevant?

  1. Return the endpoint to a known-good adequate-power port and restore safe PoE allocation before retesting the new port.
  2. Revert the airtime-affecting RF adjustment and restore the last documented channel and power plan while measuring contention.
  3. Reinstate compatible prior interface speed and duplex settings and verify the link errors stop before reinstating production traffic.
  4. Restore the previous valid RA and gateway configuration while protecting the segment from rogue router advertisements.

Explanation
